Do you listen to music while playing Travian: Legends? We certainly do!

You might not know that but we have some pretty big music fans and connaisseurs within the Travian: Legends Team. We often share music recommendations so why not creating an official playlist to channel the mood of an epic event such as the Annual Special? Exactly, WHY NOT!

And that’s how the official playlist of Travian: Tides of Conquest came to life!

How did we choose the songs? We have the pleasure and the opportunity of working with an extremely diverse team, which means we were really spoilt for choice. We got tons of great song recommendations that allowed us to pick our top 30: a mixture of epic and powerful tunes, songs from all around the world, and general awesomeness to motivate you on the battlefield.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it!

If you want us to create more playlists, show us some love by following our Spotify account HERE. Of course, this playlist embodies the mood of Travian: Tides of Conquest from OUR perspective and there is no such thing as a perfect playlist.

We are very curious to hear what motivates YOU in terms of music while you are fighting on the battlefield, so don’t forget to share your thoughts on our official Discord channel! Maybe we can create a playlist with your song recommendations next time…

The time for you to experience Travian: Tides of Conquest is approaching, and we cannot wait for you to play it this Autumn!

If you have never played an Annual Special, this table will be very useful for you to check on the differences between Travian: Legends and Travian: Tides of Conquest!

General

Regions	No	87 regions to be conquered
Victory points	No	Victory points are accumulated by the alliance that dominates a region. To dominate a region an alliance needs to have >50% territorial control and the “securing” cool-down timer (24 hours) did run out. The alliance’s victory points are the sum of all points held in all villages of this alliance. The alliance’s victory points can be lost, conquered, or destroyed.

Trade routes	You can create trade routes to your own villages, to the Wonder of the World of your alliance/confederation, and to the villages with artifacts within your alliance/confederation.	You can create routes to your own villages
End of server	The server ends when a Wonder of the World owned by a player or a Natar has reached level 100.	The server ends after 180 days for 1x speed, 120 days for 2x speed, and 80 days for 3x speed.
Alliance banners	No	Alliance members can create an alliance banner that is visible in various places in the game.
Cities

Resource fields can be upgraded to level 12 in non-capital cities. Walls can be upgraded with Watchtowers which give an additional bonus to the Rally Point option to see enemy unit types.
Waterworks	Can be built in any Egyptian village.	Can only be built in an Egyptian city.
Watchtowers	No	Only available in cities. The Watchtower is not a separate building, but a wall extension, which can be upgraded up to level 20. Each level of the Watchtower increases the Rally Point bonus by 3 per level.
Artifacts
Name	Called artifacts	Called ancient powers
Availability	Architects’ secret, Titan boots, Eagles eyes, Diet control, Trainers talant, Storage masterplan, Rivals confusions, Artefact of fools, WoW Construction Plan	Architects’ secret, Titan boots, Eagles eyes, Diet control, Trainers talant, Storage masterplan, Rivals confusions
Conquering	Can be conquered by destroying the treasury in an attack with the hero if the player has a big enough treasury in their village.	Alliance that have >50% territorial control gains access to the ancient power which can be activated in a village with a big enough treasury.
Activation	It automatically activates 24 hours after being conquered.	It needs to be activated every 24 hours; the same ancient power can be activated for each alliance member.
Power duration	It is permanently active.	It needs to be activated every 24 hours; the same ancient power can be activated once for each alliance member (account scope effect) and once for each alliance members village (village scope effect).
Power restrictions	A hero can capture multiple artifacts and there are no limits. Only the 3 oldest artifacts are active, of which only 1 can be unique or have an account-wide effect. If there are 2 artifacts with account-wide effects among a player’s 3 oldest artifacts, the fourth oldest will become active.	While in Travian: Legends, the artifact is always active for the owning village or account; the ancient powers in Travian: Tides of Conquest need to be activated. They can be activated as soon as a player’s alliance have achieved >50% territorial control and have held the territory for 24 hours. To activate an ancient power, an alliance member just needs a treasury at level 10 for ancient powers with an effect for the village, or a treasury at level 20 for ancient powers with an effect for the account. There are naturally a few restrictions: For each village, only one ancient power may be activated, and for each account only one account-wide ancient power may be activated. Thus, a total of two ancient powers can have an effect on one village.
