I just got my Castle in Everwinter Glacier, and I was wondering if any of you could give me some tips to start off.

Thanks,
Sir Sajeous Vand

If you find an empty food village or find an inactive person with a food village or even a wood/stone village, TAKE IT. The ONLY way to be real succesful (1,000 troops minimum) is if you get 5 villages.
Food is important because you can transfer resources around worlds, but even if you transfer food, you'll run out eventually.

Okay, thanks, but how do you manage your villages? Do you need troops there to defend it? I haven't found any resource villages owned by anyone under level 40, but I'll keep looking.

dont NEVER still someone RV...
even if he is lvl 25...
if u will u will get into a war...

when u start u HAVE to build the building that lat u to take RVs(Resource Villig) (Loot Warehouse)
Then u can take RVs...
to take RVs u HAVE to be fast...
so dont send tools with your troops...
u do need to deface your RVs...
and to get your RVs to the max u need to have a lot of PO and a lot of farm and woodcutter and stone quarry

Not if you're careful enough to take off inactives, low levels and people in rubbish alliances (or no alliance at all). Preferably all 3.

You have to be very careful, and reasonably lucky, but you can get RVs even if you're not particularly strong.

I've stolen wood and stone villages off of level 60s, so it doesn't really matter what level they are...

It does if you're a low level. Generally, level at least indicates strength.

I 've searched all around and couldn't find any empty RV ,all are occupied , there should be a cap for each player to not pass ,like 10 for each or even less ,to make a space for low level players to get a chance in playing there , also how do you know if someone is inactive to take his/her RV ??

There is a cap - you can only have 5 of each type of RV in Everwinter. If someone has more, it's because they got ones over the limit back before the update, and the limit, was implemented. But that's a few months ago, so I guess they're probably quite rare.

The limit is 10 of each type in the other kingdoms.

You can tell if someone's inactive by watching them carefully. If they never build anything new, don't ever gain/lose honour or level, it's a good sign. Sabotage them and see how long it takes them to put the fires out - if they don't put the fires out after a few days, they're probably not active.

There is a limit, 10 villages per player per type in Burning Sands and Fire peaks, and 5 in th everwinter glacier. Try checking their castle(s) usually inactive players are in flames, and they don't fix anything for days, but that doesn't mean it's inactive. Castles in ruins are inactives though

Thanks for the fast feedback BobFighter834 and xJadetsssx

Depends. I got those villages at level 27, and I stole them from an inactive out of an alliance level 60.
