Teleport around to gain honor
Teleporing around to gain honor quickly is actually quite a lot of fun, it’s really effective if you’ve run out of good targets in your area. I’ve done it a few times, and gained honor quite easily this way. What you need is an army large enough to defend one village against most attacks, at least 50k archers and 100k warriors, as well as a few teleport scrolls. Teleports are pretty cheap, only $3 each, but the best is to win them with your amulets of course. Read the rest of this entry »
Conquering a level 10 NPC barbarian village
With the new change to NPC farming, it now takes like 24 hours to regenerate, I thought it might be a good idea to take over a NPC village to help out with food. A NPC village has 37 level 10 farms after all, and produces like half a million food/hour without any valley bonuses at all. It took me about an hour to take over this NPC village. I won’t give everything away here, but I will give you some tips on how to do it.
Evony Map of States
Just thought I’d post a map of Evony here, it’s nice for people to see where the different states are in relation to each other. The regular Evony map is not really accurate when it comes to this. From top left the states are Friesland, Saxony, North March, Bohemia, Lower Lorraine, Franconia, Thuringia, Moravia, Upper Lorraine, Swabia, Bavaria, Carinthia. Burgundy, Lombardy, Tuscany, Romanga. And here is the map, click on it to make it larger.
How do I gain honor points in Evony?
Honor in Evony is pretty easy to get, and also pretty easy to lose quickly. The more honor you have the easier it is to lose it. You can even lose honor when you’re winning your battles. Here I’ll give a few tips on honor in Evony, how to gain honor points and stop losing them.
You gain honor points by killing the troops or fortifications of other players, killing NPC troops will not give you any honor at all, but the NPCs might give you prestige. Anyways, the more enemy troops you kill the more honor you get. However, when you get your own troops killed in battle you lose honor, so you have to both win the battle and lose less troops than your enemy to gain honor in the battle. More expensive troops are worth more when it comes to honor. Read the rest of this entry »

Guide to conquering high level villages from active players
If I’m going to conquer a city in Evony I want it to be a city worth keeping. For me that is a city with high level buildings and several high level barracks. New players with low prestige usually don’t have villages like that, so when I try to conquer cities it is usually cities from high prestige active players. It can be very difficult to conquer a village from a high prestige active player, so I thought I’d explain how I do it. Read the rest of this entry »
List of number of ballistas needed to attack NPC villages without losses
This NPC list is not accurate after the 1. june patch 2009, and now with Evony being updated to Evony Age II on most servers it will probably be completely inaccurate.
Here is a list with how many ballistas you need to attack NPC barbarian villages without losses. People keep asking this all the time, so I decided to make a list. This is for level 1 to level 8, I have not tried level 9 yet, and I’m not going to post numbers I have not testet out myself. Villages level 1-4 have been done with level 7 archery, 5-6 with level 8 archery and 7-8 with level 9 archery. I’ve increased some of the numbers 26. may after some people told me they lost some ballistas using them, the hero in the NPC village might be the reason, but now with this increase it should be safe to follow this guide.
For all numbers a hero with level 90+ attack have been used. Using heros with low attack is risky, and you might loose all your troops doing so. I lost 3800 ballistas against a level 8 NPC village using a 15 attack hero, so it can have large effects. Here is the list.
