NEW YEAR’S SPECIAL 2023 ~ Feature set

The New Year’s Special gameworlds first saw the light in January 2018 and since then have become a key event for the community. This isn’t surprising. These gameworlds give players a truly unique experience, combining a well-known scenario with new features. So, what does this mean for next year? Yes, you guessed right!

Beware, people of Travian! The Spartans are coming!

The new tribe that had a glorious debut in the world of Travian back in September 2022 has decided not to limit themselves to the battle for Europe. Powerful, enduring, and relentless, the Spartans have picked a more significant challenge for themselves… building the Wonder of the World and proving their dominance while enduring the bitter cold! Will we see Spartan World Wonder killers? Only time will tell!

What other features have been added to the New Year’s Special scenario? What made it through the player vote?

Read the table below and find out all the details!

You’ll already own six settlers and enough CP to settle two additional villages. 18-croppers, 15-croppers, and 9-croppers can’t be settled as second and third villages. You’ll be granted CP to settle two villages and 75% of the CP difference required to settle the fourth village (the bar will be filled to 3/4). The first two villages you settle will automatically have all resource fields at level 5 (additional villages will be settled with resource fields at level 0 as usual).
18-croppers	There will be four 18-cropper villages available in the game. The coordinates of these croppers are fixed, one for each sector: (25|25) (-25|25) (25|-25) (-25|-25) All 18-cropper villages will have 150% crop oases within reach.
