The following is my personal classification of all the “Gold (=Epic) Historic Generals”.
The most recommended generals are listed in a separate article.
List of Best Generals
Assumption :
- Basically, the classification is based on each general’s original skills. (For example, a general with a Ranged Troops Buff is a Ranged Type.)
- The ” Feature” column is used to show the differences within each category, so if something is obvious beforehand, it is omitted. (e.g. All generals in the Mounted Type Table have the Mounted Troop Buff as an original skill.)
- I’ m only marking the cheapest way to get it.
Legend :
- G : Gold
- Tav : You can get them from the Tavern -> Recruit
- Ch : You can get them from the “Great General Chest” in the tavern or store.
- Rel : You can get them by collecting fragments in the relics.
- Shp : You can get them by
- Buying a Paid Pack
- Battlefield Shop (2,040 badges or 6,000 dragon crystals) in front of the wall
- Art : Generals who need to be recruited in order to receive art hall rewards.
Examples of Paid Pack :
- If the 30000% return event package is on sale, buy it in one day up to the fifth level. (There is a redemption item in the package, and you can use it to get a random general.)
- During the “King’s Scheme” Super Value Event, buy and collect packs that contain “General Memento”. If you collect a certain number, you can exchange them for generals. (The general you get is determined by the event.)
Other Notes
- In the Battlefield Shop, you can buy the item “Epic Historic General”, and from this item you may get generals that you can not buy in the tavern, as well as generals that you can buy in the tavern.
- The “Epic Historic General (Premium)” item in the Paid Pack will only give you generals that cannot be bought at the tavern. ( This includes generals that can be obtained from the “Great General Chest” and “Relics”.)

Hi bro, what’s your view of recent update to put some high value generals in relic? It seems Hannibal, Roland is no longer that expensive and is it a sign that game wanted people spent less money in paid packages 🙂 or they may introduce new mega skill generals (I hope NOT!!!!) 🙁
What I am sure is the update of relic really convinced most of ppl not to pay those general anymore right?
I think this was a good update to revitalize the game. If users have to pay heavily to get good generals, I think users will keep leaving.
Hannibal and Roland were a surprise, but since Simeon the ranged and Scipio the ground still require a fee, I guess TOP games decided that it is not a big problem for the revenue of the operation.
If the revenue goes down, we may see even more powerful mounted generals.😅
That claim becomes true. So quick lol.
It is the release of Gaius Octavius with 40% mounted troop’s attack and 15% ranged troop’s attack. With maxed specialties, his mounted troop’s attack goes up to 96%. Literally another Hannibal
I’m always referring to this site.
I’d like to get Elektra the Archer General, but she doesn’t seem to be in the tavern lineup at the moment. Will it be available in the tavern again?
Also, about cultivation.
I’ve been trying to get to ALL500, but I’ve ended up with 501,499,502,504, which is a bit of a compromise. Is it not important to get to ALL500?
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Elektra has never been available in the tavern before. It has recently become available in relics, so it probably will not continue to be available in the tavern.
As for cultivation, the difference between 499 and 500 has almost no impact on the game. See below for more details.
General Cultivate Guide
thank you!
relics or a billing ticket…
Is it okay to recognize that I will dive into the relics and collect fragments 💦
Yes.
I’m sorry for all the questions💦
When do I use the fragments and block hammer?
I’ve been holed up in the relics, but I don’t know where to use them…
When you have accumulated 25 pieces, you can use them in the relics list screen.
After that, a block will appear, and you can use the hammer there.
I think Zhuhe Liang went from a purple general to a golden general in an update a long time ago, but does anyone remember what his skills were when he was purple?
Also, if anyone owned Zhuge Liang before the update, did he get upgraded from purple to gold?
I regret not adopting Zhuge Liang when he appeared in the tavern when he was purple.
Gold production 75%
The purple Zhuge Liang was not upgraded to the golden Zhuge Liang, as the name and illustration were changed to “Lu Ban”.
You guys are amazing!
I feel so much better!
Thank you so much!
Dear author, thanks for your efforts! I have a doubt here, I purchased two level 5 paid packages in the autumn activity and I just got James Bowie and Shajar. After checking your table I figure out both of them should be acquired from Chest or Art right? Why I cannot get those generals for paid pack only? Is the table here has some incorrect info? Sorry to ask, but this is important to me as I do not want to waste my money on two low tier generals. Thanks in advance!!
As I wrote in the “Other Notes” at the beginning, the paid pack also includes the chest generals.
This table only marks the cheapest way to get.
Also, the “Art” marking means the general you need to recruit in order to receive Art Hall rewards.
This is a rudimentary question, but where is the tavern?
It is located in front of the keep.
Hello, between Caesar and Aethelflaed, which one is better? Should I choose or settle with either one I could get?
Caesar is better if you want to focus on attack, but in that case I would not recommend either of them in the first place.
For more information, please refer to the guide we created.

Thank you for all your help.
Do the debuff generals on your list work on defense as well?
If you set the debuff general as the mayor and set that subordinate city to automatically enter the battle, it will work when defending your own city.
If you don’t know how to set this up, please refer to the following.

Thank you for your reply ❗ Helpful ❗
Can I use Cleopatra as my main gernal forever or i have to look for another
For the main general, I recommend that you recruit a different golden historical general. The reasons are explained in the following article.
Differences in the rarity (color) of generals
However, Cleopatra can be used as a sub-general for double item drops for a long time, until you recruit 4-5 Baibars.
Hi, What do you think about Isabel and what skills i can put her?
I don’t think she’s a very good general. I don’t recommend raising her seriously.

Hallo sorry, want to ask regarding general how to get, according the check list Shp should be the general from Shop Packages or Battlefied Shop. But why i got Lincoln from battlefield shop, which this is available from Traven ?? and in your list, Lincoln is not from Shp. thanks
In the Battlefield Shop, you can buy the item “Epic Historic General”, and from this item you may get generals that you can not buy in the tavern, as well as generals that you can buy in the tavern.
In addition, the “Epic Historic General (Premium)” item in the billing package will only give you generals that cannot be bought at the tavern. For now, the “Great General Chest” will only give you generals that cannot be bought at the tavern. Therefore, this item also includes generals that can be obtained from the “Great General Chest”.
I also got Minamoto no Yoshitsune and Prince Rhaegar yesterday from what I got from the billing package.😅
Hi, thanks alot for your reply. well im very disappointed to get linclon, which not worth anything for me. i sold it at the same time. i dont understand why those attack general are very very difficult to get. or maybe im keep get the bad luck on the purchase. i bough 3-4 times 99USD package, what i got also very disappointed. i got Yi Sun Sin, which i had already tran and josep. again i got toyotomi hideyoshi, this is also a joke, i can only use him as duty office when im reach k35. again so hard wanted for alfred, siemon, hanibal, or zachary, so i bought again 99 pack today, again so much a waste, got joseph e jonsthon in pay package. which i had him already free from general chest. so i sold him for gold directly. this is so frustrated.. i think i will not buy anymore such packages. same like lv.4 skill books, evony always give monster skills, gathering skills, troop load skills lv.4. i feel all these purchase are only bunch of waste, unless you buy premium 5x pacakages packs, which the name of general is mentioned. My question, do you think alfred, simeon, zachary, scipo will appear in King Scheme /Memento pack ? thanks
Unfortunately, I don’t know….
I hope the balance between price and content will be better. 😓

How do you increase the number of generals you can have? I can’t see a section related to this. I’m maxed at 25/25 and all worthwhile generals so need to add more capacity but don’t know how, if you could help please?
Please see the following article.😃
How to increase the Max Number of Generals you can hold
If I have 5 Andrew Jacksons, can I assign all of them to the mayor of a subordinate city, so that the ranged troops attack will be -100%? Or would it be -67%?
-100%. However, the debuff limit is half of the enemy’s buff, so if the enemy’s buff is less than 200%, the debuff will be less than that.

Is Robert Guiscard a worthwhile general to train? It has buffs and debuffs and looks good, but I’m not sure.
Robert Guiscard is a general for Mounted PvP.
If you don’t take specialty into account, he’s one of the better ones.
If you’re serious about raising general’s specialty, you’ll be better off with another general.
For more details, please refer to the following.

Please describe about Wei Qing. How he can be used
Although Wei Qing is suitable for cavalry PvP, I don’t think it’s very good. However, since he has a debuff, I think it is better to make him a temporary mayor until you can get a better debuff general. 🤔
If you want to know why Debuff General is a good choice for mayor, see below.

What would be best to do with Robert Lee 🤔
It is not a great general and I don’t think you should put any effort or cost into training it.
If you only have a few generals, then using them as temporary generals until you can get a better one is not a bad idea. 🤔
Oh ok thank you 😊
Thank you very much for your support.
I just found out the other day that a member of our alliance had posted the status of a general in the chat.
It was a general that was not listed in the portraits in the tavern, and I didn’t know him at all.
I don’t think it was a blue general, but I was so busy that I didn’t know the details and forgot the name.
Are you aware of any such generals?
If it’s not blue, I think it’s a non-historic general that appears in each color with the same illustration. 🤔
Check out the following article for a list with images.
What is Historic General
Thanks for your reply!
Unfortunately, I really didn’t recognize him, he was a general I didn’t know at all.
I thought it was probably Russian based on my impression of the illustration, but…
Anyway, it was a solid drawing, so I’m assuming it’s not a blue general or non-epic.
I’m already bothered about this general, and it’s bothering me.
In the recent update, about 10 purple historic generals were added, so it might be that, or it might be because the illustrations of the generals are sometimes changed to new ones at random times.🤔
(Recently, the illustration of Edward the Black Prince was changed.)
I see.
I’ve been checking the emails from Top Games before the event, and I’ve used the tavern many times, so I thought it was unlikely that I missed something.
A postscript. When I told this story to an alliance member, he told me that he saw Donald Trump in the Tavern a long time ago.
I was surprised when he showed me the screenshot.
He didn’t get it, probably because it was 50M gold, which is expensive for a tavern general.
I’m going to try to investigate this information with more accuracy.
I was disappointed 😓 There are several purple historical generals that are not listed in the tavern portraits, so maybe that’s it. (Belisarius, Tariq ibn Ziyad, Tachibana Muneshige)
Reference: What is Historic General
Also, when you take over a brand new NPC subordinate city, you may get a green general, which you can’t get in the tavern. (Berserker Brut, etc.)
That’s interesting about Trump.🤔
If you find out anything new, it would be great if you could let me know. ☺️
Thanks for the great info. What is your opinion on Robert de Bruce. is he useful? If Yes, in what role? Defence general or pvp?
Robert is an excellent defender with a focus on ground troops.
(As a ground attacker general, Scipio and Trajan are better.)
However, I think ground-focused defense is for advanced players.
I think it is better to train defenders that focus on siege machine and ranged troops first.

Posso usare Wei Qing per il pvp se uso soprattutto arcieri? Il Debuff che ha vale sia in attacco che in difesa?

Hi….How do I use James Bowie as? Also, is it imp to enhance stars and cultivate queen Jindeok?
Hi Pankaj.😃
As for James Bowie, I don’t think he’s a good defender, but since he has debuffs, I think it’s better to make him a temporary mayor until you can get a better debuff general.
You should grow Jindeok. This is to increase the speed of resource gathering and marching. Therefore, you only need to raise her leadership and politics.
Hi. What is your thoughts on using Alexander Nevsky as sub city mayor?
Thanks for the info.
Hi sparks.😃
It’s not bad to use him as a temporary mayor until you get a better debuff general.
Nevsky’s debuff is only -10% attack for ranged troops and siege machine, but for example, Mansa Musa is -10% attack for all troops.
About William Wallace ?
Same as the answer above.
It’s not bad because it has -20% ground defense, but Cixi is better (-30% ground defense, -15% defense for other troops).
Great List – Thoughts on Alexander Suvorov?
Alexander Suvorov is a purple general.
As with my reply to the following comment, I don’t think you should hire anyone other than golden historic generals, unless you are in dire need of personnel.
The purple generals will eventually go unused and I don’t think they are worth the cost.
Please also refer to the following article.
Color of General and difference (Rarity, Quality)
Thanks for this impressive and useful list. How do you rate Jefferson and for what use is he best? He is available in the tavern for 16.000.000 and I cannot find him in your list.
Thank you too. 😃
I don’t think Jefferson should be hired unless you are in dire need of personnel.
At the very least, he is not suitable for combat at all.
This is because his skill is to increase the construction speed of subordinate city and his attack is very low.
Also, even if he has the skill to speed up the construction of subordinate city, it is useless unless you raise the his level and increase his politics.
However, since purple generals will eventually be unused, I don’t think it’s worth the cost. 🤔
How do i get Vlad al III?
Thank you for making such a useful site. I am constantly using it as a reference!
Are the subordinate city debuff generals who you want to use when reinforcing a city during svs throne war? Or is there a different set of generals to use for that?
If you are sending reinforcements, I think it is probably better to use your main attacker general instead of your debuff general.
The Buffs and Debuffs section of the Battle Report only shows the values for one general.
Therefore, I am thinking that, perhaps, each general’s buffs and debuffs are only triggered for each general’s army.
This is difficult to verify, so it’s not beyond the realm of imagination, but I hope it gives you some ideas. 😃
I had asked Evony support more than a month ago and just got a reply an hour ago. They said that if the defbuff says leading the army the effect works when reinforcing. But if it says leading to attack it doesn’t. Hopefully them taking that long means it’s the whole answer.
Thank you very much for your valuable information. I am grateful. 😃
So it means that it continues to be a mystery as to whether the debuff effect only occurs when “the army sent as reinforcements is fighting”, or whether it also occurs when “the other player’s army that received the reinforcements is fighting”. 🤔
I always refer to this site.
I have a question about the general’s skills. I have El Cid equipped with a dragon (Fafnir), but his unique skill doesn’t shine.
I have Electra equipped with Dragon (Celtic Demon) and her unique skills are shining.
Is it wrong to put Fafnir on El Cid?
This game is so lax, you shouldn’t care if your unique skills shine or not😭.
I don’t remember which general it was, but there used to be one that wouldn’t shine even if the buff was active. (It was fixed to shine in a later update.)
I don’t have an El Cid, so I can’t confirm.
Please try attacking dead cities both with and without dragon and check the buffs listed in the battle report.
Where can I get Robert the Bruce?
I think you need to wait for it to appear in the “King’s Scheme” (*) or the rest is luck.
*See the first part of this page.
I refer to this site all the time.
When the article says “available in a purchase package”, is it correct to say that I have to buy all 5 levels of the pack? (about $200 total?).
Does it mean that what I get there depends on my luck (I randomly get one of the generals marked in the “Pck” column in the table above)?
Yes. However, there are other ways besides 5 levels packs.
You can buy the packs from the “King’s Scheme” event, or you can get them from the “Battlefield Shop”, in which case you don’t need to pay.
(I’ve added the details to the first part of the article)
Olá. Eu tenho muitas dúvidas com Generais. Eu tenho Timur, o coxo. Onde ele deve ser usado? Alguns me disseram que ele é ótimo em pvp, mas como equipa-lo se esse é o caso?
>Hello. I have many questions with Generals. I have Amir Timur. Where should he be used? Some have told me he’s great at pvp, but how do you equip him if that’s the case?
—————
Hi Agnes. His strong point is resource gathering, so he is not suited for PvP or combat.
However, if you still have a few golden historic generals, I think it would be a good idea to use him as a temporary combat general until you can get a stronger one.
As for equipment, if your main focus is monster hunting, you should choose one with cavalry buffs.
If you are using it for PvP, you should focus on one of the troop types. If you are in the early to mid-game, cavalry or ranged troops are good choices.
Hi, so If a general has a debuff, they should be a sub city mayor? Like I have both himiko and Edward the black, but have hua Mulan as my mayor… should I switch out?
When playing PvP (Player versus Player), it is better to change it.
See below for a detailed explanation of the mayor’s debuff. 😃
Important Usage of Subordinate City
Ok thx, but why when PvP?
In order to take advantage of debuffs, you need to know the enemy’s troop type.
In the case of monster battles, debuffs will also work if you have the mayor participate in the battle, but since the enemy’s troop type is unknown in many cases, you will only be able to utilize them in limited cases. (World boss, etc.)
So basically, I think it would be better to have a general who is good at increasing construction speed or training speed as the mayor when not in PvP. 🤔
Note that I do not recommend that you enter the mayor into battles to raise the mayor’s level when hunting monsters.
Please refer to the following article for the reason. 😃
Fastest way to earn General EXP & level up
Hi bro… Why The Cid is slightly on cav.. He has 10% atack when the general leads the army and another 15 % when he has a dragon. That makes 25% atack on cavs… Or am i wrong? Thanks.
Hi 😃.
The classification in this table is based on the perspective of “how does it compare to other generals, RELATIVELY speaking?” (This is not an ABSOLUTE classification.)
So generals whose basic skill is “buff all troop types” are classified as all-rounders.
I think you’re right, El Cid would make a competent cavalry general with dragons and all the specialties active.
However, for those who can’t get their hands on dragons or even specialties, I think Roland or Li Jing would be more suitable as a cavalry general.
However… He can be used to rally monsters? And thank you very much for the reply. 🙏
El Cid’s base attribute is not low, so if you can attach a dragon to him, he can be useful.
If you can’t attach a dragon, Hannibal, Roland, or Li Jing are better, so you might want to make him a temporary rally general until you can get them. 🤔
I have a dragon on him. Soni can use him as a monster general right? And i want to thank you for your reply bro. You are doing a great job. I know he is not martinus but on martinus you can’t add atack sadly as i saw.and i do not have martinus. The Cid specialties are lower tha Martinus but so far i can say i am happy with the cid till i get a better monster gen.
Thank you for all your help. I am using this as a reference.
I think Barbarossa is march size + mounted soldier attack +15%.
Thank you😃.
The “Features” section is meant to show the differences within each classification, so things that are obvious beforehand are omitted from the list.
(All generals in the mounted type table have the mounted troop buff in their original skills.)
Which generals do you think are best duty officers for: Warehouse, embassy, forge, research factory, and holy palace?
At the moment, there are no generals optimized for them, so it doesn’t matter who they are.
I am hopeful that in future updates, new generals will be added that are suitable for them. 😃
Ideally anyone that has those needed stats high, for example, Leadership + Politics for Keep, so you can easily have him sooner as junior, medium, senior or special duty officer
I heard that I need to get a legendary general for a TAPjoy ad project. What level does it start appearing at in Tavern Lvl?
The gold historical general seems to appear at tavern level 20. Whether it will appear at lower levels is unconfirmed.
Please see the following article for the probability of appearance. 😃.
Drop Rate of Historic General at Tavern (Survey Results)
I found a character named Zacs (with gold letters and a recruitment cost of 10M) at Tavern Lvl 11, is he a historic general? I’m sorry for asking such a stupid question. I’m a beginner, so…
He’s not a historical general. (Even if it’s gold, it doesn’t mean it’s a historical general.)
Please check out the images in the second half of the article below. 😃
What is Historic General
Thank you for good page.
Today my friend told he got alfred and margaret from tavern.
I know tavern give me them anyway.
What is true?
Hmm, when I look at them in the tavern portraits, it says “The General is temporarily unavailable in the Tavern”. So they should not be available. But my tavern is not lvl 35, so I don’t know what happens in that case. 🤔
It would be nice to have these generals, but it’s IMPOSSIBLE to KEEP them. You are only allotted a certain amount. Maybe once you have a level 35 keep, you can hold most of these guys. Depending on your server’s current situation, you can swap and move your generals around. Recently I upgraded bao chao archer tower general to 120% so I put him in the main keep duty for training capacity. As long as you keep a bubble on your city, nothing else matters!
I always refer to it as a reference. Thank you very much for the information.
If you know, please let me know.
Martinus, who specializes in cavalry, cannot add the cavalry attack skill, but Roland, who also specializes in cavalry, can.
If you can tell me what makes this difference, please let me know.
One more thing, about the generals that are available by paying for them, the article says “Pck : Only available in a purchase package”, which package does it mean?
Thank you for your time.
Skills – The trend seems to be as follows, but I can’t verify it 100%, so there may be exceptions. 🤔
– If there is only one buff item (cavalry attack only), it cannot be added.
– If you have multiple buffs (cavalry attack, HP, and defense), you can add them.
This game is a bit lax, so I think you have to try and see if you can add skills 😅.
(I just wrote a related article about it, if you’re interested 😃 Best Skills Guide – what skills should you add? )
Charges – I know there are various ways to get specific things, for example: 😃
– If a 22500% package or 25000% return package is on sale, buy up to the 5th level of that pack in one day.
– If it’s during the “King’s Scheme” Super Value Event, buy lots of packs and collect “General Memento”.
Thank you very much for your kind attention. 🙇
Thank you for your help.😄
