And if so is it pretty new and just filling up? Because that would be perfect for now. So should I stick around here and expect to see it fill up? Or is there a way to look elsewhere?

Finally, are there push notifications? It would be nice to know when I get attacked, and when building are done being constructed.

Oh, one final question. Is there a way to set my ingame time? It's always has completion times set to weird hours which look like another time zone. I would like to get that fixed ASAP!


Welcome to the game friend. I head up the Valor Game Team and it's always nice to see a new player drop by and leave a note. If you find things you'd like to change about the game, come here and post. We read everything.

Second, worldA5 just opened and it will take time to fill up. Stay there!
Third, as this is a port from ios some features arent available yet, including push notifications, but they are working hard to get them to us
Fourth, the game uses Greenwich Medium Time, (im pretty sure) AKA Zulu Time, and you cannot change it. Its universal for all players and in time you will come to appreciate how wonderfully useful having a standard time for everyone actually is. Its a great help, especially when you are trying to coordinate with other players.

Hope you enjoy the game!


Thanks for the info. I was thinking after I posted this that setting up attacks in Travian was always a pain in the butt because of the time differences. The server seems to be filling up pretty fast. So it looks like it's going to be fun.
