This is a sheet I made to pass to my down line. Some information might have to be updated. If so, please give me a holler in world!
If you would like to find out whose line someone is in, go to the Standings Page (http://tinyempires.com/standings) and put their name into the search box at the bottom of the page. (Enter a partial name to locate in the hierarchy. (box to type in) [Submit Button]). It will list the person's lineage from the Emperor down to the head of their line. You can then use the links above in the page to find the person's direct line.
WHAT IS TINY EMPIRES?Tiny Empires is a HUD game that is played by thousands of people here in Second Life. You buy the game HUD for $499L and then you never have to pay another Linden again, unless you want to upgrade to a Federation HUD (which you don't have to do to). You will join a massive group of people who all play their HUD games wherever they may be. You don't have to be standing next to a person or be in a specific area to play. You just put the HUD on (which is small and even smaller if you minimize it) and enjoy!
YOUR GAME GOALSThe goal of Tiny Empires is to increase your land holdings while you make as much money (gold) as you can. This is all Tiny Empires land/money only and NOT Second Life land/Lindens.
You want to get your friends to play and "pledge" to you, they will become your subjects. You will become their Liege. The Emperor will give out an annual fee for each subject you have, so you will get a small amount of gold at the end of the year. You will also get a "homage" fee that your subjects will pay you. It starts out high, but will decrease with each title tier they move up. The more land you own, the further up the "ladder" you move and you get new titles which will decrease the homage you pay.
Acres Title Homage
0 Wanderer 10
1 Peasant 9
5 Squire/ss 8

25 Baron/ess 6
50 Viscount/ess 5

200 Marquis/e 3
400 Duke/Duchess 2
1000 Prince/ss 1
GENERAL GAME PLAYEach "round" is called a month. The date is in the upper left corner of the HUD. The right corner has the clock - will turn brown as it advances.
If you are in a NO SCRIPT sim, your HUD will stop working
You have to be 3 or less levels from the person you want to invite as subject. If they are too low, then give some land to boost them up.
Do NOT buy land after July. Taxes are due in December of each year and if you don't have the gold then you will lose land to compesate.
When you first start out, you should save your gold and buy the upgrade/improvement items as soon as you can. (horses, oxe, peasants, barns, etc). This will increase the amount of gold you make per acre and quickly set you up to making the maximum amount of gold you can make per acre in game. When you buy land, it increases your land holdings but the amount/acre you make stays the same until you have bought a large quantity of land.
Trader charges you 2 times the amount that you currently buy land at. Trader deals lasts for 12 months, then goes back to regular game play.
