Gameworlds with Advanced Start are becoming more frequent in Travian: Legends. This feature speeds up early development and reduces the time before battles begin—but it also increases the importance of planning your economy from the very first minutes. Your main early-game goal in an Advanced Start world is usually simple:
Settle your fourth village (your future capital) as fast as possible.
This guide offers a clear, practical path to reach the fourth village quickly on x2 speed servers.
Feel free to adjust based on your tribe, playstyle, or experience.
General First Steps
Step 1 – Activate Bonuses
Immediately enable your +25% resource production bonuses after registration.
Step 2 – Run Adventures
Send your hero to the first adventure right away.
As your hero returns:
Complete every adventure as soon as possible.
Assign all points into resource production.
If you spawned near strong oasis clusters, you may optionally hunt oases first and switch points using the Book of Wisdom once you obtain it from the 6th adventure.
Step 3 – Settle Your 2nd and 3rd Villages
Send your two settler groups immediately.
You may:
Settle both villages close to your spawn (safer and faster CP)
Or travel further toward a future cropper (shorter distance later but slower CP now)
A longer walking time delays Culture Points (CP), so choose balancing speed vs. long-term positioning.
Setup Used in This Guide
This route assumes:
You start as Egyptians (best early economy)
All hero points go into resources
No oasis farming
Villages 2 and 3 are settled close to your spawn
If your world allows “select second village tribe”, use it for flexibility
Keep your hero alive—hero production is critical for hitting CP goals fast.
When a line says “Main Building 12,” it doesn’t mean building it immediately.
Instead:
Prioritize cheaper CP buildings when online
Build expensive buildings during offline time
Always maintain the overall order of development
Goal Breakdown
To settle village 4, you must:
Reach 1,525 Culture Points, and
Accumulate enough resources for:
Two small celebrations
Residence level 10 (in one settled village)
Training three settlers
Sending them to the new location
Development Plan for Spawn & Settled Villages

Final Steps Before Settling the Fourth Village
In Your Settler Village (only one village):
Upgrade Residence from level 2 to level 10
Train 3 settlers (total cost: 63,000 resources)
Celebrations:
Run small celebrations in both villages at ~150 CP each (22,360 resources per celebration)
Send Settlers
Once CP and resources are prepared, send your settlers to claim your fourth village—ideally a high-bonus cropper.
