Once more, in case you missed it, readers are encouraged to avoid this game entirely.
The typical zerg rush with cavs entails sending a legion of footmen with some ballista backup, going to sleep, waking up, then firing off hundreds of thousands of horses. But never with cavalry, unless that's all you're sending they're the dumbest cavalry ever coded and will set off every single trap in their way. Zerg Rush: Due to unbalanced countering and bad AI, this is the preferred method.Tamer and Chaster: The still-misleading ads for The King's Return features little to no scantily clad women and more endorsements from A-list celebrities, and puzzles.Tactical RockPaperScissors: Though it's a bit more complicated than just matching up units, other units support each other in odd ways due to the range stat.And when your ads look like this ◊ ( NSFW), when your actual game is a Civilization clone, there's something wrong. The same notoriety has led to a lot of parodies (web-based card game Alteil had "She is actually in our game, m'lord!", for example) from similar games and webcomics. it got to the point that they didn't even bother putting the name of the game on some ads Evony had become so infamous for using softcore porn as ads, they could afford to assume that people who see these ads would know it was an ad for Evony. These ads progressed from being standard pictures of armored warriors and the like (you know, things the game actually contains), then showed a woman with a sword pointing into her cleavage with the caption "Save your queen!". It's actually a clone of Chinese browser game Kingory, a Civilization ripoff where you build and fight ancient cities. Usually these ads will try as hard as they possibly can to make it look like a pornographic game. Sex Sells: The game's (in)famous ad campaign showing increasingly unclothed pictures of women who don't appear in the game.

and then it shifted back into full bullshit mode in King's Return, featuring puzzles that don't even show up past the start of the game. Thankfully, later ads return toward a more traditional route.Still another used a (surprisingly tame) Crane courtier from Legend of the Five Rings without authorization.And another with art stolen directly from a DeviantArt user.There's another on Facebook with Gengar saying "Can you beat level 3?".Another one on Facebook shows a screenshot from Counter Strike: Source, and has the title "Level 2 is impossible!".His username was given, but no real name or credentials apart from " Evony player". The quote is attributed to, in much smaller font, an Evony player. Not quite a lie, but none too credible at all: one Evony ad boasts that someone (ostensibly, at first, a critic) claimed that Evony is the greatest MMORPG he'd ever played.Another ad has the slogan advertising for Evony II: "No more bullies! No need to farm! Free Forever!" Really? So what about Evony I?.Granted, like nearly all of Evony's ads, this one also had a woman in the foreground. One ad did show a Civilization-like game.Evony's entire marketing campaign is false advertising. Lady Not-Appearing-in-This-Game: Evony game advertisments frequently feature scantily-clad women that do not appear in the actual game.Averted, in how long armies take to reach distant destinations. Consider that you're role-playing lords in a medieval setting. Easy Communication: A particularly blatant example with how fast mail can reach other players.Build relief stations to make the most of this, especially if you're a long way away from your allies. The Cavalry: You will be very glad of your allies when they come to bail you out.
Sadly for the human race, enough people are willing to shell out hundreds of dollars to make the game pretty much pointless if you don't spend money yourself. Can be a real Game-Breaker if you're willing to pay enough, but it's not cheap. Bribing Your Way to Victory: You can buy in-game coins with real money, which allow you to purchase resources and helpful items.It was still clearly written by someone for whom English is a twentieth language, though. "Blind Idiot" Translation: At first, anyway, although as translation errors are reported by the playerbase it's been getting steadily better and better.Big Brother Is Watching: A game design student reverse engineered Evony's client, and discovered not only is it very poorly made, but it harvests massive amounts of data, including such things as your browser history, which websites you visit while the game is open, and what applications you run.This game, which should be avoided entirely as it is a spyware program in disguise, provides examples of:
