Is Surena a good general in Evony?
This Evony General makes a great option for players who are Siege Machine heavy. The special skill alone packs a big punch without any meaningful development. Unfortunately, though he cannot have a siege skill book added which sees him fall down the rankings a little.
Surena can also be Awakened through the General Ascension feature for even more buffs. However, this is very expensive and he is still a great General without this.
In addition, this General can be very effective as an Evony Siege Defense General.
