I agree. If the level of interest stays this high, I am confident of TGA being in the top 3 by the end of May.

No, I just stepped out of Fark for a bit to do some battle system testing. I also haven't built troops in like a week, even I take attrition losses. Should pop back up a bit now, I'm building some replacement swords.

Booze, lots and lots of booze. Museums as you hit higher levels (TH 10+), but early on, lots and lots of booze.

Re: The Fark/TGA Military 1-2 punch

Satisfaction drops over time as your population increases. The more crowded your TH, the more unhappy your population. Either pump more booze/culture into them, or expand the townhall.

Re: The Fark/TGA Military 1-2 punch

INcreasing town hall helps, as does booze. When the population gets too high, increase your military which will drop your population and make room for more. Then you MUST pillage to afford your military..LOL

Ahh, Life. A viscous cycle of debauchery and ultra violence.

We were assaulted by a gang of vicious, young, hoodlums in this house! In this very room you are sitting in now!
