In evony online game sometimes you need to send a hero of one city to another city. Being able to send heroes from one city to another will cut the requirement of building inn's in every city. You can just build one inn in one city , recruit good hero there and send them to other cities. This way you can save the spot required to build inn in the second city and build something useful there.
To send a hero from one city to another you need to follow the steps
1. The other city where you want to send the hero needs to have an open spot in the Feasting Hall. You can do this either by upgrading the feasting hall or dismiss any existing hero from the feasting hall.
2. Then go to the city from where you want to send the hero.Click rally point, march, Select city where you want to send from favorites, select reinforce, select the hero that you want to send, select a scout along with him. Scouts move fastest , so the hero will reach the second city in fastest possible time.
Now you will be able to find the hero in the feasting hall of the destination city.
So, sending a hero from one city to another is that simple.

Benefits of conquering valleys in Evony Online game
In Evony online game , the main challenge is to have a steady incoming flow of resources. You need to maximize the resources you gain every hour.
One way to do that is to acquire valleys nearby(except flats). Each valley (grassland, forest, dessert, hills,lake) gives a percentage resource bonus of the base rate of production. If you hover your mouse on a valley it will show you the information like
1. Type of valley it is
2. what type of resource increase it gives. Like , forest increases lumber production, deserts increases stone production, hills increase iron production, lake increase food production, grassland increase either lumber or food production)
3. which type of resource production it increases.
4. percentage by which it increases production of resource.
5. If it is currently owned by any lord.
Every valley has troops hidden within them . To conquer a valley you have to attack a valley and kill all the hostile troops inside it. Now if your valley quota is not full then the valley will come under your ownership and it will continue to give you percentage bonus of your base resource production. The more higher level valley , the more higher resource bonus it gives. Also higher level valleys contain more amount of hostile troops in it, so to conquer a higher level valley is more difficult task, so in the beginning you have to attack lower level valleys and in later stages when you gather enough troops attack higher level valleys.
The number of valleys you can own is equal to the level of your town hall. So, if you have 2 cities with level 9 town halls , then you can own 9+9=18 valleys in total. If your valley quota for a particular city is full and you want to acquire a new higher level valley then you can abandon one of your low level valley and free up one valley spot.
Now, try to acquire valley that increase the highest base production resources. For example , if you have base production of 100k lumber in one city and only 10k iron production in that city , then you should acquire more forest for that city than hills. Each forest you add to that city will give you 100*X bonus for lumber while each hill will give you 10*X iron bonus.
To conquer a valley scout the valley first ,then send your troops about three times the amount of troops that the valley have.
To conquer a valley first find a valley suitable to your strength of army . Then check if it is owned by other lord or not. If it is a free valley then send about 100 scouts to check the amount of troops the valley contains. If the level of your informatics is low then you may not get the exact amount of troops in the valley. Your will see they are denoted as Pack, Lots, etc. Below is the list of terms you may see in your report and their meaning
Few 1-25
Pack 25-50
Lots 50-100
Horde 100-250
Throng 250-500
Swarm 500-1k
Zounds 1k-2.5k
Legion 2.5k-5k
Bulk 5k-10k
Giga 10k+
Now you despatch about 3 times the army that is hidden in the valley. If your army can defeat the army in the valley you said have conquered the valley. the valley will continue to give you resource bonus until you release it or someone else conquer the valley from you.
Now , in later stages of the game when your army strength will increase you have to abandon low level valleys and conquer new high level ones. To abandon an existing valley go to "overview", then "valleys" . "View" the valley that you want to abandon and click "abandon".
daveshow07 has pointed out a very common problem that I forgot to mention. When you send you troops to conquer the valleys , your army will camp there if they can successfully conquer the valley. Now, while camping the troops consume twice the regular amount of food , so you will see a sudden increase in "troop upkeep" or consumption of food by the troops. To solve this you have to recall your army from the valley. To recall your army from valley ,Go to feasting hall and recall the hero from the valley, or in map select the valley -> enter -> recall, or go to reports -> army movements -> check for "camp"-ed army and then recall.

How to increase your prestige in Evony online.
In evony online , the rank of a player is mostly decided by the amount of prestige they have. At first i was having a hard time to figure out how another player is gaining prestige so fast . All he gets the answer is "build more building and war" . Later, I started figuring out how to boost up prestige faster.
Yes , it is true that you can gain prestige by buildings and war, but there are certain techniques to speed up the process.
1. In the beginning your only option to gain prestige is to follow the questline. It is a good guide for beginners and each quest award you such a way that the the resources that you require to start the next quest. So , for first 1-2 days you won't have to do anything outside the quest, because if you do something outside the quest , then it will consume your resource but you won't get any reward for it. Then you will have to wait until it comes back to normal.
2.Use the free 5 min speed ups. In evony if the base time for upgrading a building is less than 5 mins then you get a free speed up. This speed ups will not consume your beginners or primary guidelines. So , when upgrading the buildings click the speed up button. If it is a free speed up then it will complete immediately , otherwise it will show the "guidelines" window, which means it is greater than 5 mins upgrade and you won't get free speed up for this.
2. Recruit a good politics hero. The best way to speed the prestige is to speed up the buildings. To speed up the buildings to need to recruit a very high level politics hero. To recruit a hero you need a inn and a feasting hall .The heroes will come to the inn and you can recruit them from there and appoint them mayor in the feasting hall. The hero should be a low level - high politics hero. A low level hero will take less gold to recruit and easier to upgrade. So a level 10 hero with 70 politics is better than a level 10 hero with 60 politics. After recruiting the hero make him the mayor in the feasting hall. Upgrade heroes regularly, when he reaches the required points for next upgrade.
3.Try to upgrade buildings and research in the academy at the same time. If you do upgrades and research both in the same time , then you get prestige for both of them at the same time.
4. Use a high intelligence hero to speed up the research. As high politics hero speed up the building time , a high intelligence hero speed up the research time. So , you need to upgrade the feasting hall to level 2 and recruit another hero with high intelligence level. Now , when you are going to start a new research make the high intelligence hero as mayor . Start the research , then again bring back the high politics hero as mayor. Believe me, it is much easier than it sounds and pros do it all the time.
5. Award your politics hero "Wealth of the nation". You can reward your hero with items from your inventory. Go to feasting hall and view the hero with highest politics. Award him with item "wealth of the nation". This will increase the hero's politics by 25% for 24 hours to 7 days. Make him mayor. This will decrease the building time and the extra resource you get from the mayor. Remember, it is a percentage increase , so more base politics your hero has , more increase he will get.
6.Try to get more than 1 city and build and research in both simultaneously. If you can build and research in both of your city (until you get more cities) simultaneously. That will give you a lot of prestige boost. To get your second city ,claim your newbies package and lords package (click the gift icon in the top left corner of your screen, beside the internet explorer icon). This will give you enough medals required for major rank and get another city. Build same level academy in both of your city and start researching in both the cities.
9. Get more taxes. Once you reach 50000 population then increase the loyalty to hundred by repeated comforting(Disaster relief) them set the tax rate to 100%. This will increase the gold you generate from taxes. You will be able to get about 50ooo gold each hour. keep on the loyalty to 100 by doing comforting (disaster relief). Now , disaster relief decrease the amount of food each time. So, you have to buy food from market. The amount of gold you have to spend in the market for buying food is fur less than the amount of gold you receive from the tax. So , every hour you will gain a lot of gold even after buying food from market. Remember, set the tax rate back at 50% when you are going to be offline for long time. Otherwise, the loyalty will come to 0 and the population of your city will be become 0.
10. Increase your prestige through war. Every war you win you award you with some prestige. be it a valley or npc or some other player. Start with low level valleys, then gradually start taking low level npc's. Look for low prestige players who don't have any alliances. Attack and defeat them. Apart from adding up prestige they will also give you resources which will help you do more building/research. in evony, you will get more prestige if you loose troops in battle and still win the fight. The more troops you loose , the more prestige you will gain, but you will have to win the war, otherwise you loose prestige.
I hope this post will help some of you guys. If I find any other important point later I will post it here. Please post your comments if you think i have missed any point here. Thank you.

7. Build more troops. Build at least 10 barracks in one of your city and start building troops. You get lot of prestige when you build troops. Build more warrior as they takes less time to build.
8. Reach 50000 population limit in one of your city. There is a population quest which awards 5000 prestige if you can reach 50000 population in a single city. So , select one of your resource city and build about 15 cottages of level 9. Then reach 100% loyalty by repeatedly comforting them. This way you can reach 50000 population and receive the 5000 prestige award. For comforting go to overview, then comforting tab and apply "disaster relief" . Each time you do this , it will deduct some food and increase the loyalty by 5. Don't worry about the food shortage, it is explained in the next point.9. Get more taxes. Once you reach 50000 population then increase the loyalty to hundred by repeated comforting(Disaster relief) them set the tax rate to 100%. This will increase the gold you generate from taxes. You will be able to get about 50ooo gold each hour. keep on the loyalty to 100 by doing comforting (disaster relief). Now , disaster relief decrease the amount of food each time.

Evony tax policy explained : get 30k gold every hour from tax
In evony online MMORPG using the tax policy you can earn a lot of gold every hour. This is the most comfortable way of earning gold because you don't have to sell your resources or don't have to loose troops attacking other players. Your own people will give you lots of gold every hour in the form of tax and the method is very simple.
You have to follow three simple steps to do that.
1. Set your tax rate t0 o. To do this , click "Overview" below your image in the top left panel, then go to "tax Rate" tab and set the tax rate to 0 there. Wait for some time , until the loyalty becomes 100. The number beside the mask icon is the loyalty. When you set the tax rate to 0 the the rate of gold earning may become red , as you are not drawing any gold from tax but have to pay the hero his salary. So , do it only if you have at least 2k gold in reserve.
2. Now, when the loyalty goes 100, set the tax rate to 100%. This will maximize the gold earning from tax.
3. Now , as you set the tax rate to 100 , your loyalty starts falling. Simple formula for loyalty is 100 - tax rate = loyalty. To keep the loyalty at 100 , you have to apply "comforting". When your loyalty goes down to 95, go to "overview", the "comforting", select "disaster relief" and apply. Now every time you do comforting , it consumes some food and your loyalty goes up by 5 and it stays 100. You can do comforting after every 15 min.
Now if you have a large population then your food consumption for every comforting will be huge. If you fall short of food buy it from the market. In all servers food are very cheap to buy. So the gold you have to spend on food will be much less than the money you earn from taxing. The more population you have the more gold you get every hour.
That's all you have to do. Now more your your population , more amount of gold you will be getting. With 30 k (9 level 9 cottages) population you can get about 30 k gold every hour.
Only downside on this method is you have to do comforting every 15 min , so when you are not going to be online for long time then bring back the tax rate to 20% , otherwise loyalty will decrease to 0 and the people will leave your city.
Now , why do you have to set the loyalty to 100. This is not a necessary condition, but more loyalty you have, more people you come to your city and more people your city has they will pay you more taxes. That is why it is best to have 100 loyalty all the time.
Avoid doing this when you will be offline for long .
