Tips On Evony

Part 1
Identify towns near you which HAVE A LOW PRESTIGE and HAVE NO ALLIANCE YET
I call them Ghost Towns - They are towns where people started playing and left
Attack them each once a day and take along lots of men to plunder and bring back the resources
and so to add to your economy which you can trade and become even richer!!!
Remember to take along enough men to bring back all the resources.

PART 2
Tips for a good Economy.
We don't have a market for nothing.
Use IT!!!! - Keep track of the prices!!!
Buy resources for low prices and sell them again against higher!!!
So to make a profit and to build your economy just stronger and stronger.

Part 3
The price for food is regulated by the fact that we've got Blessing.
It cost 1535 Gold for 15350 Food.
So 0.100 Gold for every 1 Food.
If you are playing the market or need food - Never pay more than 0.100 at the market.
Rather do Blessing.
Also do not sell for less than 0.100 as you maybe already have paid 0.100 for your food if you used
blessing a lot - And then making a loss.
Always sell your food if the market is higher than 0.100 - Then you will be making a profit!!!

If you are being terrorised by other player and plundered constantly, keep that town as empty as possible and use all resources to build a big army. Keep your gates closed and ignore the urge to build defences, will only be destroyed in next plunder and takes too long to build to defend yourself. With your gates closed your army will stay safe in the city and try not to have any resources available for plunder, upgrade warehouses or transafer to 2nd town or alliance member.
With this you will gradually build a big enough army in this 'raped' town that will deter would-be attackers if big enough and at that point you can start to work on defences.
Archers, archers, archers, archer towers....
You will need at least 12k plus units (quality units) to deter a would-be attacker. Their gonna milk you everytime if they successfully did it once, after first attack, concentrate on resource building, army building, and resource storing / evacuation. NEVER use warriors when moving recources, they use alot. Rather get an army of workers to move quickly.
I survived countless attacks by doing this and the most they got from me (apart from one day which I did not play#*@$&*!) was 2000 food. That's a negative for the attacker who probably used 30000 food to get his troops there, trust me, that will make him think twice before attacking again. ONLY downfall is.... your prestige takes a knock, but who cares! Prestige don't put the food on the table!

Conquering High Level Player Towns

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.

You need to have high enough title to take two more villages to use this method. The first thing is to get a base close to the city you want to conquer, preferably less than 10 miles from it. What you do is to look for a low prestige hopefully inactive player with at least 2 villages that has one village close to the high level village you eventually want to have. If there are easier to get villages to choose from, choose the one with highest rally point and feasting hall.

You take this easy to get village using the normal method, first destroying fortifications and then scout spamming it. Scout spamming is attacking the village with 1 scout and 1 hero several times until the loyalty is below 15. When it’s below 15 keep attacking it now and then so that the public grievance remains high, it will drop to 5 in 1-2 hours. At 5 the gates will open and now you need to send your army to take out his troops. When his troops are gone you keep scout spamming it till loyally is 0 and then you get the village in your next attack.

Taking this first village might take you a long time if your other villages are far away, but if it’s an inactive player it doesn’t matter, he won’t be online to stop you from taking it anyways. The next village you’re going to take however is a high level one, from a high prestige player that might have an alliance watching over him, so here you need to be as fast as possible. That’s why you need this other village close to him as your base.

Now move your army to your newly conquered low level village, with enough food to feed them for a while. Hopefully it has a high level enough rally point for the troops you need to send out from it, if not you have to build it, preferably speed build as your new neighbour might notice what you’re doing if you spend too much time on this.. Also fill up the feasting hall with heroes.

Now it’s time to go after the high level village you wanted in the first place. You pretty much use the exact same method as you used to take the low level village; the difference now is that travel time is much shorter so you can do everything real fast. In addition to scout spamming you will now also use your whole army several times, so that you take away all his food and any troops he might be reinforced with.

If he happens to get online during your scout spamming, you have to use parts of your army to attack with instead of scouts, also scout him often too look for reinforcements. It’s very hard to conquer a village of a strong player who is online, but being real close to him with an army much larger than his, it is possible. Don’t give up, good luck![b]
