Welcome back to Empire Build Academy! I’m Favian, and today we are diving into the latest Evony update. This update features the epic new general Alexander Hamilton and a plethora of Independence Day events. From massive rewards to strategic tips, this guide covers everything you need to dominate in Evony.
Whether you’re a fan of mobile strategy games like King of Avalon, Lords Mobile, or Age of Empires, or Evony is your first love like it is mine, let’s explore this exciting update!
Introducing Alexander Hamilton: The Ground Troop Titan
The star of this Evony update is Alexander Hamilton, a Founding Father of America and a powerful Epic Historic General. He is available through the tavern’s America recruitment portraits. Hamilton brings game-changing buffs for ground-focused players. Here’s a breakdown of his abilities:
Special Skill: Increases ground troops’ attack, defense, and HP by 35% when leading an army. Pair him with a dragon or spiritual beast, and ground and mounted troops’ attack boosts by an additional 20%.
Specialties: Focused on ground troop attack buffs, making him ideal for PvP and monster hunting.
Ascension: At 4-star ascension, you gain +10% march size capacity, a critical stat for larger armies.
Covenant: Requires three specific generals for extra buffs. This includes +8% march size capacity at the fifth tier.
Pro Tip
Hamilton is a must-have for ground troop enthusiasts. Use Epic Historic General (Premium) tokens during recruitment to boost your chances of getting him!

Independence Day Events: Rewards & Opportunities
The Independence Day theme brings a slew of events and packages to Evony, offering chances to score big rewards. Here’s what’s on offer:
1. Independence Day Packages
Big Spenders’ Delight: The $99.99 pack includes Level 6 Barbarian King Tokens and Level 7 Premium Gear Chests. This is perfect for Arctic Barbarians players looking to power up.
General Recruitment: These packages also offer a shot at Alexander Hamilton and other exclusive rewards.
2. King’s Party Event
A staple of major updates, this event provides opportunities to earn resources, speed-ups, and more through tasks and purchases.
3. Historic General Summoning
Use Epic Historic General (Premium) tokens to summon high-tier generals. Personally, I am saving up 51 tokens (45 standard + 6 glory) for a five-star ascension general, ideally a defense general. Have you seen defense generals in this event? Let us know in the comments!
4. Trial of Knights
Use Blood of Ares to compete for rankings and rewards. I have over 5,000 Blood of Ares, but I aim for a top 20 spot. Check if your target general (e.g., Lunn) is still available—I need 150 fragments to ascend his four-star Lun.
5. Feasting Rivalry & Grace of Star Trail
Feasting Rivalry: Offers solid rewards for participation, making it worth your time.
Grace of Star Trail: Spin for a chance at 20 or 50 tickets to summon epic generals. I scored Blood of Ares—not bad!
6. Other Events
Stay on your toes for events like Voyage to Civilizations, Warlord Challenge, and Arctic Barbarians. Others include Ranger Knight Order, Astral Oracle, Blessing of Palace, Alchemy Shop, and Huns Invasion. Poseidon Day is also an option, a fishing event that I skip due to time constraints.
Pro Tip
Focus on events like Feasting Rivalry and Grace of Star Trail for accessible rewards. For big spenders, Arctic Barbarians tokens can boost your occupying power significantly.
Officer General Swap Event: Worth It?
The Officer General Swap Event allows you to exchange 90 fragments of an officer general for 30 fragments of another. For instance, you can swap Morris of Nassau for Stockless or Pericles for Blanch. I question its value because of the high cost and limited officer generals in my roster.
Community Question
Do you use the Officer General Swap? Is it beneficial for big spenders, or does it feel too expensive? Share your thoughts!
Additional Update Highlights
General Level-Up Optimizations: Streamlined progression for generals makes leveling up much smoother.
Monarch Gear Composition: Improved gear management offers better customization options.
Triumphal Arch Interface: Enhanced visuals and usability for a better user experience.
Strategic Tips for Evony Players
Optimize March Presets:
Navigate to the Rally Spot > March Preset and adjust troop tiers. For example, change from 3,000 to 500 soldiers per tier to optimize your army setup. Many players overlook this feature!
Monster Hunt Settings:
In Monster Hunt, use Auto Join but customize levels to avoid low-tier monsters. Save stamina for higher-level monsters like Pan for better rewards and speed-ups.
Defense General Strategy:
Personally, I am saving tokens for a five-star ascension defense general. My playstyle focuses on defense with mounted troops. If you’ve spotted defense generals in the Historic General Summoning, share your insights in the comments!
