The hero guide in evony online game

In Evony online game the heroes control the gameplay in every aspect. You must have been surprised that how some players gain prestige and train large troops so fast while you can not. The main reason behind this is the experienced players have high leveled heroes and use them properly.
Heroes help you gain prestige fast in three different ways.
A hero has three different attributes politics, intelligence and attack.
When you select a hero as the mayor of your city them they help you in the following ways
1. A hero with high politics reduces the building time. A high politics hero also increases the production rate of the resources of that city.
2. A hero with high intelligence will reduced the time taken for doing a research. Some players also say that they also help to get more information when you scout someones city and and increase medal drop rates.
3. A high attack hero increases the troops production speed and defend your city when someone attacks you.

Remember the hero attributes will work only if you set the hero as mayor. So you have to switch heroes as mayor when you are starting a research or starting a troop production run.
You need at least level 3 feasting hall to recruit 3 heroes of different attributes

1. The highest politics hero will remain mayor as default , as he increases the resource production.
2. When you are going to start a research , make the highest intelligence hero as mayor. Start the research and again bring back the high intelligence hero as mayor(you don't have to wait for the research to complete, you can do this immediately after the start of the research).
3. In similar way ,when you start producing troops you have to make the highest attack hero as mayor, then bring back the high politics hero as mayor again.

Now , to have this work, you must have at least a level 3 feasting hall so that you can accommodate all 3 heroes. To recruit heroes you also need an Inn. The heroes will gather into the Inn and from the Inn you can select and recruit heroes. The recruited heroes will move to the feasting hall. The heroes in the inn will rotate every hour. If you click the refresh button then the heroes will be rotated immediately but it will cost you an item "Hero Haunting". Some people create a level 1 inn and then check if the hero is good otherwise demolish the inn and build a new one. This way you can rotate the hero very quickly. A higher level inn holds more number of heroes and higher level of heroes.

While recruiting heroes from inn you have to recruit heroes who have low level but high on attributes, otherwise it will be difficult to level up the heroes.
For example if
heroA has level 5 , politics 65 and heroB has level 30, politics 75 then HeroA is always better one to recruit, because when heroA levels up and reaches level 30 he will have politics 90.

To appoint a hero as mayor open the click on the feasting hall, then click on the "Appoint mayor " button and select the hero from the drop down list of heroes.

Selecting and changing heroes hold the most key point to beat other players in the evony online game. Please write your comment if you think i have missed any point.

Sending reinforcements and resource to ally members in evony online game.

In evony online game you may want to send resource or troop reinforcements to your ally member or other members want to do the same to you.
To transport resource to other allies , go to map mode , type the city coordinates where you want to send the transport. Click on the city, then click transport. Now select the amount of workers or transporters who will carry the resource. workers and transporters can carry a lot of resource so using other types of troops for transporting are not good idea. But sometimes, when you want to send resources very fast you may use scouts. Then , select the type and amount of resource that you want to send, click Ok. If you have a high level Relief Station in the city from where you are sending the transport then the time of transferring the resources will be minimized greatly( 5 times for each level of upgrade in Relief Station)in evony online game.

Reinforcement is when your ally member is attacked and you want to send your army to help him defend his city.
In evony online game sending reinforcement is same as above , but the city where you are going to send reinforcement must have an Embassy. More upgraded the embassy is , the more groop of allied troops can be garrisoned there(this does not effect the army size). As example , we can say that if the city has level 3 embassy then , it can hold troops from 3 different ally member.
Difference between transport and reinforcement is, when you transport your troops come back to your town automatically and when you reinforce the troops stay in the destination town until you call them back. The reinforced troops will defend the ally city but they can not be send to attack by the ally. To recall the reinforced troops you have to open "reports" -> "army movements" tab and select the troop to recall. Your ally (where you sent the reinforcement can also send them back from their embassy) in this game.
Building that helps in resource transport and reinforcements in evony online game.

Relief Station- Relief Stations greatly minimizes the amount of time required to transport and reinforcements between different cities of your own and ally cities. So if you have cities great distance apart then a high level relief station is a must have. In this game Relief Stations minimizes the transport time by 5 times for each level of upgrade.
Embassy- This is essential for sending troop reinforcements. If you don't have embassy in your city then other ally members can not reinforcements to that city. So it is a good practice to have an embassy in each of your city. Also, you must tick the checkbox "Allows troops of the allied members to garrison your current city". The more upgraded your embassy is , the more number of ally members can send troops to your city.

Reinforced troops only take part in defense , you can not send them to war.

Guide on opening and closing city gates in evony free online game

In evony online game the opening and closing of gates holds a good importance on strategy of battle.


Procedure to opening and closing gates.
Your gates are closed by default , if you want to open them then go to Rally Point and tick the box beside Medic Camp and your gates will be closed.


















Advantages of opening the gates

In general, if someone attacks you in evony online game and if the gates of your city is closed then the army inside will not attack the the enemy troops. Only the fortifications like traps, Archer towers will fight them. But if the gates are opened then fortification and your troops both will attack the enemy. So , if the attacking troops are relatively small and you don't have enough Archer Towers to defeat them, then you may open the gates so that the troops inside your city can kill them.

You should also open your gates when someone has attacked you and other allied members are trying to send you reinforcements. Reinforcements can only enter your city if the gates of your city is open, otherwise they will go back to the allied member.

Opening your gates can be great advantage if you have lots of scouts. If someone sends scouts to your city and the gates of your city are open, then your scouts will try to kill the enemy scouts. If your scouts are larger in number than the enemy scouts then your scouts kill all enemy scouts and you will get a lot of honor and the enemy player won't get any information about your city. However, if the enemy scouts are greater in number then they will kill all your scouts and the enemy player will gain honor and all information about your city.
Closing the gates are required when someone has already defeated you and destroyed all your fortifications and you are left with very small amount of troops inside. At this point you need to close the gates until some reinforcements from other ally member come(if any).
Also, you should close the gates when the number of scouts you have is very small, so that enemy scouts do not kill them.

If your Embassy is level 2 then troops from two other members can come to defend your city, for level 3 embassy troops from 3 members can come to protect your city. So , it is a must that you create embassies in each city.

What is rainbow attacking method in evony online games

The rainbow attacking method is very popular and effective in evony free online game. The rainbow method gives a lot of advantage to the attacker in winning the battle. It is just a simple method yet very powerful.
The process of rainbow is simply send 1 type of every troops along with the archers. An example of rainbow will be

1 worker
1 warrior
1 pikeman
1 swordsman
1 cavalry
60000 archers
1 cataphract
etc etc.
The main reason behind this is to form a shield to protect the most powerful troops , archers. Now, how just one of each troop forms shield for all those archers? In evony online game the battle is fought in rounds. In each round the defender and attacker try to kill each others just one type of troop. So , we can say that for each type of troop you send you will get a extra round of firing. This can be simulated as follows
Suppose the defence (your opponent has 10000 Archet Towers/AT)
So, the battle will be fought as follows.
Round 1.
Enemy - The 10000 Archer Towers hit your 1 worker(remember in each round all of them hit a single type of troop).
You - Your 6ok archers kills 2000 AT's(Archer Tower)
round 2 -
Enemy - The 8000 AT's hit the kill 1 warrior.
You - Your 6ok archers kills 2000 AT's

round 3 -
Enemy - The 6000 AT's hit the kill your 1 Pikeman.
You - Your 6ok archers kills 2000 AT's

round 4 -
Enemy - The 4000 AT's hit the hit and kill your 1 swordsman.
You - Your 6ok archers kills 2000 AT's

round 5 -
Enemy - The 2000 AT's hit the hit your 10000 archers.
You - Your 50k archers kills 1500 AT's

round 6
Enemy - The 500 AT's hit the kill your 500 archers.
You - You kill the rest of the at's.

Though ,the above process is very much simplified to give you an overall idea of the rainbow method. Remember, while the opponent's level of research , level of walls, speed of different troops makes a great difference . Sending the rainbow alone does not ensure you will win the battle, but we can surely say that sending rainbow troops are much better that sending only the archers in the evony online games.
