Travian Plus & Gold
Gold is a premium feature. You can buy it for real money, if you click at the right top to the 
symbol.
There are three ways of spending gold. The plus membership, the gold features and gold club membership. These are the three options.
- Gold club
- Free features
- Features with costs
- Gold features
- Plus membership
Gold club
Gold club is a feature for the new T3.6 version. You can buy gold club membership for 
100 ( 50 on a speed server) for the whole server. If gives free features you can use without limits and it gives more features which you have to pay gold to use. Please note that there won’t be any gold refunded after the server end or the deletion of the account.
The cropper finder (free feature)
You have the option to search the map for all 15 and 9 crop villages.
To activate the cropper finder you must be a member of gold club. Then you will be able to find the cropper finder symbol at the map. After you have clicked it you will be able to see the options of the finder.
Here you can enter the position from where the finder has to search. The default start position is your village. You can choose the type of the valley/village you want to search for. At the “Oasis crop bonus (at least)” you can choose which type of oasis should be available at this valley/village. You can choose between “25%”, “50%”, “75%”, “100%”, “125%” and “150%”. Finally you can mark that the finder shows you only valleys.
Farm list (free feature)
Here you can see a list of all your farms. Again, some censored fields here. Anyway, you can see village names, how many times you have attacked, what your total bounty from that farm is and how many losses you have had at that farm. Also the last attack is shown.
At the left side of the village name you see a little ‘+’ sign. If you click this, you will add that village to your farm list. This farm list is shown when you are viewing the map. A screenshot of this is shown below.
What you see above, is the farm list. This farm list is shown right beneath your map. You can remove villages from your farming list by clicking the red X, or go to the rally point, click “Gold club” and click the small minus-signs in front of a village name. You can add villages to this list the same way, but then it will be a plus-sign then (see above).
Merchants run three times (free feature)
If you are member of the gold club you can let merchants walk the same thing trice. As you see, that is done by a drop-down menu now.
Farm statistics (free feature)
Below the overview of your farms village, you can see statistics.
The green bar shows you your bounty, and the right orange bar shows your loss.
Master builder (1)
You will need to construct a building with the master builder if you don’t have enough resources to construct the building or your workers are already at work. The master builder waits till you have enough resources or your workers have the time to construct your building.
The first entry is the normal task, and the second one is the master builder entry. It will start when the first entry is finished and you have enough resources. At the moment the construction really starts the gold is taken from your account
HINT: This feature is NOT activated on T2.5 servers!
Send away all troops before an attack comes in (2)
The troops leave at the moment of the attack and return 180 seconds afterwards. The troops will evade only if NO troops are arriving at home within the next 10 seconds except for those returning from the use of this option. With this feature only troops trained in this village but NO reinforcements will evade.
To activate this feature you have to click your rally point. At the point “Gold club” you find the option “Show evasion settings”, click it and you will see the settings.
You can mark the villages which should be evading with the checkbox in front of the village name. Next you can enter the maximum number of times the troops should be sent away. It costs 2 per evasion. Finally you can click “OK” to save the settings. With this feature only troops trained in this village but NO reinforcements will evade.
HINT: This feature is ONLY activated on servers with version T3.6 or higher!
Returning troops immediately (5)
If you have one of your own reinforcements incoming, for example from an attack you can return the troops immediately to their village. Only waves without catapults and chiefs can be called back immediately. Additionally, the callback is not possible if the village will be attacked / raided within the next 3 hours.
To activate this feature you have to click the Plus symbol at the right top then the word “Gold”. At the Travian Gold club you can find “Let troops returning to this village arrive immediately” (Have a look at the picture at the top).
After you click “activate” you can see an confirmation.
HINT: This feature is NOT activated on server with versions below T3.6 and not activated on all T3.6 servers!
Trade route (2)
Trade route allows you to set up routes for your merchant that he will walk every day at a certain hour. Standard this holds on for 7 days, but you can extend it with 7 days for the cost of 2.
To set a trade route, you have to go to the marketplace. Once you have more than 1 village, the tab “trade routes” will appear. What you see here is the screen you get when you have no Trade routes set yet. To create a trade route, you have to click the “Create new trade route” link.
After clicking the “Create new trade route” link, This is the screen you will be shown. I censored the village name here again, which should be in the drop-down menu behind ‘target village’. A little explanation on the screen you see here: target village: the village the resources will be transported to. Note that you can only send resources by using this feature to your own villages. Resources: Pretty obvious. The resources you want to send to the other village Start time: The time your merchant will be starting his route. In this case, I let it start at 16=16.00 server time. So it does not take the time zone you may have set on your own, but the server time. This is GMT+1 (Germany, Netherlands…) Deliveries: How many times you want your merchant to go? I set it to 3 here, so it will go 3 times starting the first time at 16.00 o‘clock. You can choose 1, 2 or 3 times. Costs: The costs of the trade route is always 2. Duration: This is also solid value when creating a new one. A new route is always 7 days.
Once created, you will see this when clicking the “trade routes” tab in the marketplace. Censored village name again, which should stand behind “Trade route to…” . You can select a trade route and hit the ‘Extend’, ‘edit’ or ‘delete’ link. All of them pretty much explain their selves. Further, you can see the starting time here, the amount of resources involved per load, the merchants used and the time left for that route. If you look beneath the “merchants” heading, you see “3x1”. The “3” is the amount of deliveries; the “1” is the number of merchants. Therefore 1 merchant will walk 3 times.
HINT: This feature is NOT activated on T2.5 servers!
