Druidriders need a fix

Red Balloon · Nov 22nd 2019

First and foremost, I would like to show everyone this table.

Name	Classification	Carrying Capacity
Legionnaire	Unmounted Unit	50
Praetorian	Unmounted Unit	20
Imperian	Unmounted Unit	50
Clubswinger	Unmounted Unit	60
Spearman	Unmounted Unit	40
Axeman	Unmounted Unit	50
Phalanx	Unmounted Unit	35
Swordsman	Unmounted Unit	45
Equites Imperatoris	Mounted Unit	100
Equites Caesaries	Mounted Unit	70
Paladin	Mounted Unit	110
Teutonic Knight	Mounted Unit	80
Theutates Thunder	Mounted Unit	75
Druidrider	Mounted Unit	35
Haeduan	Mounted Unit	65

Notice that for all mounted units, only the Druidrider has a very low carrying capacity which is also the second-lowest carrying capacity in the game equal to the Phalanx and just above the Praetorian. Druidriders have horses. Horses can help carry loads and baggages. Realistically speaking, how is it that other non-mounted units have higher carrying capacity than a troop with a horse? Even a fully-armored legionnaire with a body-sized shield can carry more than a druidrider. This gallic unit needs a baggage fix.

Gual needs no boost if you know how to play them they are a very good tribe

even as a def gual you can easily run a TT ghost farm with that and ship res to villages to train def 24/7

they are a good tribe just have to know how to play them properly

Your comments are appreciated but I would also like to humbly point out that the main point of contention here is not about the tribe advantages/disadvantages or even about farming. It's about exactly why a mounted unit with a horse is capable of only carrying a very few resources compared to fully-armored non-mounted units. Realistically speaking, doesn't the horse factor in on the carrying capacity too?

REALISTICALLY SPEAKING... in Travian?

So why does THIS:

Move faster than THIS:

Clearly we need to speed up the Swordsmen or slow down the Phalanx.

its also not realistic that roman traders are second slowest and can carry way less goods than the other tribes.. if you consider, that they were the most advanced at the time with streets and what not :thinking:

i get what your saying with it being unrealistic that a horse unit can carry less than a standard legionaire, but there always have to be tradeoffs.. advantages/disadvantages. Its not logical, but its decent balance.

This is why i love this community. I agree, TG needs to add more logic to the game
