I don't mind the city layout your giving ppl if they are noobs cause then they won't have to worry about farming.

I don't mind leaving out the farming because there are so many guides to that.

You lightly touched upon it but i think you should emphasize too new players that getting a steady stream of resources early is paramount to setting yourself up to succeed.

Also i think hitting lvl 1-5npcs with ballistae is much better for new players than the 6-9 with warrioirs that you recommend.


The biggest issue I have with the guide is where you say "Get to Duke". This is extremely hard for 99% of new players. I figure if a player can get to duke by getting help from alliance mates and reading the forum, i would no longer consider them a noob in most cases.

The number one thing I would tell a new a totally new age II is that if you don't plan on spending money its probably gonna take you more than one server to figure it out.
