Eve of the Apocalypse: Twilight

i still have many questions - for example (please don't shoud "noob" 100 times-i've been playing for 1 day so far) : How do i make energy ?(food)
how is it best to use it? pls guide.

heh... i just stumbled on this site while looking at the article on wiki
so i guess i found my answers : http://www.eota.cjb.net/

tx to the creators of eota for a nice refined map!

hey and welcome to the boards Drop by channel clan eota on useast or the european server for more eotaers and host alot if you can

unfortunatley the only server i can play on is Eurobattle bcause i don't have an original copy of W3Frozen Throne.
Still haven't learnt how to use energy the site mentioned didn't hold such info but i'll get the hang of it i guess during gameplay.

the use of energy: You get energy from the obelisks you make, the team who has the most obelisks gains control power too but thats not important right now.. so if you make 2 obelisks you get like 10 energy, then you can make a generator and use up to 10 energy.. make many turrets or a chrystal generator that uses 8 energy.. its up to you. chrystals is gained either by lkilling heroes or having chrystal generators

You forgot West

well, west has the tendency of empty clan channels or afk/looking at gamelist clan members, (one of the resons why i left, the only peapel who do talk are either rathia, orc/woots, or wind, and sometimes dea, but i heard that he left or something, the rest are either "grunt... game.... grunt <plays>", or after joining never log on agn.) when i visited east, there where 2 members that where chatting, and i have yet to log onto eruope. relly i hope this inactivity would change...

Check wikipedia (on English) for EotA, there is a guide to anything you really need to know.

In terms of Energy:

As ashwa said, you need to conquer Obelisks. To do so, build an Obelisk control tower next to them, either with the upgraded start-item or a worker.

Each Obelisk gives you 5 Energy (as long as it is captured). Unused Energy gives you more experience at the rate of 1% per unused point of Energy.

The other way to spend it is generators. Workers can build generators for 500 gold, 1 minute building time. Then you can upgrade the generators so that they gain some useful abilities. Each upgrade needs a different amount of Energy. Check the wikipedia-article for descriptions of the upgrades. Btw, the most common upgrade is Crystal, but all of them have their uses (maybe except Bomb, imho).
