Evony Strategy Guide

Defensive trebuchets and rollinglogs, often called DTs and RLs, are the two most expensive fortifications there are in Evony. They also take up a lot of space on your wall and take a long time to build, so the question is, are they really worth it? The defensive trebuchet used to be called rockfall before. It’s pretty much the same thing apart from that it now will target enemy siege weapons. They do deal quite a lot of damage in this role, but from experimenting a bit with them it seems to me it’s not worth giving away the wall spaces to defensive trebuchets instead of archer towers. Generally I have 100-200 defensive trebuchets just for layering purposes. I like to have some of each fortification there is. Read the rest of this entry »

Evony traps, is there any use in having them these days? I think you should have some traps, but not a whole lot of them, Archer towers are still the best fortification there is in my opinion, but it is nice to layer your fortifications a bit with traps and abatis as well. Traps are pretty good at killing foot soldiers, but they are pretty useless unless you combine them with archer towers. If a player only have traps as his fortification the enemies will just send cheap warriors at him and destroy those traps pretty easily. If he has archer towers as well however, losses will be much larger if he chooses to only send warriors. Read the rest of this entry »

A few days ago there was a new patch with a couple of fairly big changes to battle mechanics. As I’ve said in comments on the site I’m on vecation right now, so I haven’t had time to check out the new changes yet. Feel free to discuss them in the comment section here though, and I’ll check them out as soon as I have time.

• Rolling Log – The range on this fortification has been reduced.
• Rockfall – Now called Defensive Trebuchet.
• Defensive Trebuchet – This fortification has significantly longer range than Rockfall.
• Defensive Trebuchet Description – Excellent at destroying enemy siege weapons, a trebuchet will only get one shot per battle and must then be rebuilt and reloaded.

Yes, it’s possible to attack barbarian NPC villages without any losses at all. You get a lot of experience for your hero when you’re doing this as well as lots of resources. I’ve done this with villages up to level 5 so far, but I will attack higher once I get enough troops to do so. Read on to figure out how.

You can make more than 10 million gold a day in Evony using this strategy. Actually 10 million is just a cool number, the correct one is 950,000 gold an hour, most people don’t play 24/7 however. The way to do this is to raid NPC villages, and I will tell you how.

To do this I would recommend having a minimum of two villages, and one of them should be as close to a level 5 NPC village as possible. The level 5 NPC village will have 950,000 gold in it when full, it regenerates all that gold in one hour, so to get the max from it you should be within half an hour from it with transports.
