In this travian cropper guide I’ll try to explain how to use a cropper most efficiently, and what you should look for when trying to decide which cropper to chose as your capital.
Well just to start, if anyone don’t know what a cropper is, it’s one of these villages that have 9 or 15 crop fields. Most people refer to these as a 9 cropper and a 15 cropper. Anyways, a 15 cropper is what we will focus on here. Almost all successful players chose to make a 15 cropper their capital, and the reason for that is to optimize resource production. Cause of the 50% bonus oases as well as two bonus buildings being available for crop production, you get much more resources total if you chose a 15 cropper as your capital.
Another reason to chose a 15 cropper as your capital, is to have somewhere to store your attacking troops, your sweep that is, without going heavy into minus crop production. On a normal speed server I usually also build the sweep in my 15 cropper capital, so that even when it’s out attacking there is no or at least not a lot minus in crop production. On a speed server I try to build my attacking troops in a village just beside my 15 cropper capital, preferably another 15 or 9 cropper if available, and just store the troops in the capital when I’m not using it.
The reason for building your sweep in another village on a speed server is to double the troop production using the great barracks and the great stable. This is when you have 20 or so villages, until that you probably won’t have enough resources to train troops in the great buildings. On a normal server you got to have a lot more villages to produce in both the regular and the great buildings, since the resource production is three times lower, so usually you can just take the easy route and build the sweep in your capital and don’t worry about great barracks and stables.
I hope these tips were usefull, and feel free to leave a comment below if you have any questions or comments.
