Quarry
The quarry is where you produce stone for your empire in Evony Age 2, it is the same in Age 1. Especially early on a server production of stone is really important for growing your Evony empire quickly. The reason is that stone is the most important resource when it comes to building construction. Just look at the wall, you need a huge amount of stone to get this construction up to high levels.
Even though stone is really important early on a new Evony Age 2 server, prices for stone is usually starting to decrease in week 2 or 3. The reason for this is that stone is not very important at all when it comes to train troops, and that is what you will be spending most of your resources on when you get a little bit into the game. Most players get enough stone from just plundering NPCs and buying on the market, and don’t have any stone cities at all. Look at the table below for more details. Read the rest of this entry »
Walls
As the name implies, walls are to set your city’s boundaries and protection for your city. This will allow your army to withstand attacks from an enemy. A wall’s durability is tested when an enemy attacks your walls and can’t destroy it after 100 rounds. Since after 100 rounds units will die automatically and units which do not die survive and go home.
Walls can also be upgraded per level, at level 1 walls have their durability increased to 100,000 and provide a fortified Unit space amounting to 1000. Walls produce all kinds of fortified units to protect your city, as well. The higher the level of your wall is the more fortification units you can place on it. I suggest you focus mostly on building archer towers as they are the best fortification type out there right now.
Evony Archer Towers
Archers towers in Evony, also called Evony ATs, are simply the best fortifications there is. They stand on top of a massive wall shooting at enemy units from a comfortable position. They will gain an extra 4.5% shooting range for each level your wall is, giving them the second highest range of all the units in Evony. The only unit with higher range is the defensive trebuchet, but that unit is way too expensive and take too much room.
With a battle range of 5000 the archers towers can often shoot at enemy troops for many rounds without anyone hitting them back. I try to get as many archer towers as possible on my walls, about 14,000 of them on a maxed wall. Read the rest of this entry »
Best fortification combination in Evony
There are five different fortifications in Evony, traps, abatis, archer towers, rollinglogs and defensive trebuchets. As pretty much everyone knows the archer tower is the best fortification there is, but is it a good idea to have 100% archer towers? I don’t think so, I definitely prefer some diversity in my fortifications. Archer towers can be best against most forms of attacks, but now and then it will help you a lot to add some other fortification units. The most important fortification apart from archer towers in my opinion is the abatis, I usually have about 1500 of these in cities with a maxed wall. Read the rest of this entry »
