Nothing. No emulator.

Used by

Troop Training, the march slots of Rally Setter and Solo Hunt, and the Troop Resources calculator.

For every tier, this tab holds two things. First, the cost to train one troop of each type — Mounted, Ranged, Ground and Siege — in food, wood, stone, ore and gold. Second, what each troop is called in each of the game’s seven civilizations. Both come filled in. Every instance shares this list, and a change is saved as soon as you confirm it.

2. 2Troop types Name the four rows. Each box beside a type holds the cost of one troop of that type in one resource. Leave a resource at 0 if the type does not use it.
3. 3Save Saves all four rows.

Add a tier

1. Click Add Tier. The Tier number starts one above your highest tier. You can pick any number from 1 to 99.
2. Type the cost of one troop of each type, resource by resource. Leave a resource at 0 if the type does not use it.
3. Click Add tier.
4. Fill in the troop names for the new tier (next section).

If the tier already exists, you see Tier exists. Edit that tier instead.

Fill in troop names

The same unit has a different name in each civilization. A Ground troop of one tier is called something different in China and in Japan, for example. Evonex needs the names so it can find a troop on the march screen.

1. On the tier’s card, click the T button, Troop names per culture. Point at it to see how many names are filled in, for example 21 of 28 filled in.
2. In the Troop names window, find your civilization’s row: Europe, China, Japan, Korea, America, Russia or Arabia.
3. Type each name exactly as the game prints it. Leave a box blank until you know it.
4. Click Save names.

With no tiers saved, the tab says No troop tiers yet and offers Add a tier.

How Evonex uses it

• Troop Training offers the tiers held here, highest first, and adds up the cost of one troop. With none, it says No troop tiers in the library yet — add them under Resources → Troops.
• The march slots of Rally Setter and Solo Hunt that pick their own troops look for the troop’s name on the march screen. Any civilization’s name that is filled in will do.
• The Troop Resources calculator prices a plan from these costs and shows troops by these names. It reads them fresh every time it opens.
