CHOO! CHOO! Onward to Industrial Age!

[dbukalski]

Preemptive congrats on reaching ia. But the happiness will fade away when u realize u are still effectively ea until uve done the week blacksmith upgrade, week troop upgrades x however many troops u use. And with barracks out of commission slowing down ur retrain time. Ur effectively worse off in the early industrial age than u were in maxed out ea

Yea, besides france, I'd suggest not to hurry with barracks upgrades or speed them up. It was super annoying even in EA with brits, one of the main reasons I switched in IA. 24 days on two barracks is just wrong.

On Industrial Age now and upgrading the support buildings that doesn't impact raiding i.e. Library and Markets. Going to start on Blacksmith tomorrow.

At this rate, I think I will probably need a month or so before I can start having IA troops.

 

[Redgar]

Well, I may take me a months to upgrade my defense to max EA level with all new IA buildings, but all IA barracks, factory and airport should be finished in 1 week. After that I'll give priority to defense. I really need those anti-tank cannons

Library? I didn't see any must have researches?

4 days behind you, planning Armoury first and all the new stuff - quantity over quality and I want the airfield

 

[Eddie F1]

What do I need for the airfield? Gold, workers and ?? Any nasty surprises?

 

[Redgar]

Nah, 120k oil will do the job. I realized that oil looks like the hardest to get when you want it faster and there is even more raiding oil hunters higher on medals. I did 60k today, but still it is not even enough for the bunker build.

 

[firedancer]

It is a ritual for me to complete all my library researches. So, I always upgrade my Library first.

 

[firedancer]

How to finish Barracks in 1 week where they take 8d to upgrade? Unless you Crown em. Defenses are usually the last things I upgrade.

 

[Redgar]

I have just one left, 4 days to go. And airfield lvl2 is 7 more days. I just didn't wait for defences upgrade before seitching to IA, you know.

 

[firedancer]

At the rate things are going, I can safely put the game down for days before returning to check on it. This is good since I can go play other games.

Status update so far... All Library researches done, 700% Road Connections, All Level 9 walls, 3 Tank Depots, 1 Upgraded Barracks. Upgraded Vault, Storehouse and War Academy.

I guessed the keywords in this Age are... 1w 5d, 1w 3d and 1w 1d. *zzzzZZZZZZZ*

I kinda put this game aside and went to play LINE Rangers instead.

You beat me to it, I was about to mention trains lol.

We need a train for gold and have Cornelius Vanderbilt operating it.

I have 3 barracks finished, 50% L9 walls + 1 piece of L10, Airfield 2 finishes tonight & get Zeppelin, Armory done, have Motos, Tank, Engineer, Artillery underway, Library done, working on Ch3, Alliance Gate underway, Academy nearly done.

Worst thing with 1w 2d is bears clogging the animals up, so no deer or bunnies for days on end.
