Epaminondas – Details

Is Epaminondas a good general in Evony?

Epaminondas is one of the best Evony Ground PvP Generals and Ground Defense Generals in the game. He has huge HP and attack buffs for ground troops which make him ideal for this march type.

Unfortunately, a large part of his ground HP buff comes from the final specialty. Therefore, he can prove expensive to get the most out of vs. other similar options.
