Which Tribe Should I Choose?
If you’re playing this game for the first time then Gaul is your best choice. This tribe is the best one for newer player because you can play the game and learning the game safely. You don’t really need to online all the time. Just focus on learning how to not getting farmed (when other players keep raiding your village) and learn how to settle your second and third villages.
If you’re a returning player or mediocre, already know the basic stuff and you know how to not getting farmed. If you want to spend your money (gold) in this game Roman is your best choice to learn this game, if you have a lot of free time Teuton is your best choice, if not both of them Gaul is your best choice. Don’t get me wrong, you can still choose Roman and Teuton even if you’re not using gold or have a lot of free time but it’s not as effective as it should be. Feel free to choose whatever you like because the best tribe is according to your playstyle.
Hun and Egypt are for experienced players. I don’t know why people recommend Egypt for newer player, it’s hard to learn how to farm and how to level up your hero with Egypt. If you can’t use it, you’ll ended up like dead turtle.
