Tran Hung Dao – Details

Is Tran Hung Dao a good general in Evony?

Tran Hung Dao is a natural defense general. In particular, he is one of the best for a very heavy siege defense. Unfortunately, he is weak with all other troop types. He is therefore only viable for players that are happy with the gem repair cost of siege machines.

Tran Hung Dao should also not be used in attack. The majority of his buffs are only active when in defense.
