Timeline

In the timeline you can see events that are going to happen in the currently active village.

The 0 on the far left side is the present time. The further events are located to the right, the longer it will take to occur. The scale of the time-line is not linear. First the scale is in minutes (up to the 60) after that in hours (up to the 24) and the final numbers represent days.

You can scroll the timeline by dragging it to the left and right with your mouse.

The upper row shows all unit-movement related events like incoming attacks and support, as well as your returning armies.

In the bottom row you can see when a building or a recruitment order will be completed.

Hint: By clicking on an incoming attack icon you directly open the list with all inbound attacks for this village.

Ranking

You can access the ranking if you click on your current rank or the points in the upper left of your game screen.

Player Profile

To see your profile, you can simply click on your name in the upper left of your game screen.

There you can edit your avatar picture, write a profile text and select the achievements you want to show to other players if they view your profile.

Village Info

Here you can see the currently active village with its coordinates on the map. If you have more than one village, there are arrow buttons to switch between your villages.

You can click on the name to open a window with more detailed information where you can also change the name of that village.

Groups

You can assign groups to villages for easier management. Groups are displayed on the map and very useful in the later game if you own multiple villages with a different strategic focus.

Hint: Groups can also be assigned to enemy villages. You can use this for example to mark offensive and defensive villages after spying on them. Your coop partners can see these groups as well, so it's a great tool to communicate potential attack plans or things like that.

Resources

Also see Resources and Provisions in Basics

Quests

Quests are located on the left side of the screen. In Tribal Wars 2 you always have questlines shown here instead of single quests. A questline is usually comprised of multiple quests, and you can decide in which order you want to finish them. After completing all quests in a questline, you can finish the questline itself. (see left column) For a complete list of all quest, go to: Quest overview.

Global Information

On the right side of the screen you can find important notifications for different events. You can extend and collapse this window with the arrow button.

Event Types

Beginners protection active

You will see this in the beginning of the game as long as your village is protected from attacks. With a click on the Crown button you can extend this protection.

Incoming attacks

If you see this, one or more of your villages will get attacked soon. The upper number shows you the total number of attacks. The lower one shows the number of villages where an attack is imminent.

Incoming support

This is the same as the incoming attack event, but it shows you the inbound support operations instead.

Loyalty counter (visible if under 100)

This notification is only displayed if the loyalty of the currently selected village is below 100.

Night Bonus active

On some worlds, there is a night bonus active for a couple of hours each day. You will also see this notification if you turned off the night graphics in the settings.

Building Queue

This is the building queue for the currently selected village. By clicking on an empty slot you can access the Headquarters. By clicking on a building icon in the queue you can open details about the build job where you can cancel the job or complete it by spending Crowns.

Unit bar

The unit bar gives you a quick overview of all units that you have trained in the selected village. Clicking an icon will open the related building where you can recruit the unit.

Important note: Units from other villages that are supporting your village are also included.
