Is Empress Dowager Cixi a strong general in Evony?
Empress Dowager Cixi is actually a specialized Evony Attack Sub City General, so she may not be the best choice for direct attacks. However, her debuffs are great for weakening enemy defences, making her a valuable option for taking on ground-heavy keeps as a sub-city general. Plus, you can find her in the Tavern, making her a budget-friendly option for players who don't want to break the bank. So while she may not be a top-tier attacking general, she definitely has her strengths in the right situations!
