Evony Expedition to Egypt Guide

Table of Contents

The Expedition to Egypt event was added on the 1st of December, 2023. This guide will cover what the event is, how to play it, rewards, and tips and tricks to ensure you win! Please note, there are two variations of this event – one with Pyramids and one with Sphinx’s.

Introduction

The Expedition to Egypt event works similarly to Treasure Hunt or Barbarians. During this event you will have 10 opportunities per day to attack / rally Fortress Pyramids or Sphinx Castles that spawn randomly across the map.

Fortress Pyramids / Sphinx Castle

These Pyramids / Sphinx’s spawn randomly across the map, and there are five levels:

Level:Power:Points:
1902.3K1.5M
210.4M2.1M
330.6M3M
482.4M4.3M
5289M6.4M

How to Kill Fortress Pyramids / Sphinx Castles in Expedition to Egypt

To kill Fortress Pyramids / Sphinx Castles, you should treat them like bosses, and send single tier cav marches with your alliance joining rallies with one troop (not siege). You can attack or rally these Pyramids.

Please note, whilst on paper they are the same difficulty to kill (same power), it is being reported that Sphinx Castles are harder to kill that Fortress Pyramids. We will create a list of troop combinations below as we figure it out – if you have any information, please post in our Discord!

Level One Sphinx:

Coming soon.

Level Two Sphinx:

Coming soon.

Level Three Sphinx:

How to quickly find Fortress Pyramids / Sphinx Castles

There is a website called iScout which allows you to enter in your server number and will show you the coordinates of players, subs, barbs, pyramids etc. but for the purpose of this guide – all the Fortress Pyramids / Sphinx Castles. This is incredibly useful for quickly gaining score, and ensuring your victory in the event.

You simply select what you are looking for, which in this instance I will be looking for the buildings available on my servers map, and click Apply on the filter, and it will deliver the coordinates to all buildings available on the map!

iScout does cost, although they offer a free trial. For more information, check out our guide on them here: iScout Guide

Drops When Defeated Fortress Pyramids / Sphinx Castles
