Marcus Agrippa is a powerful leader of ranged troops in Evony. This article explores his background, special skills, specialties, covenant bonuses, how to obtain him, and the best general combinations for maximizing his potential.
General Story
In the 1st century BC, after the successful siege of the naval port of Myos Hormos in the Ionian Sea, Roman consul Marcus Agrippa ordered his fleet to immediately set sail for the Gulf of Actium—abandoning their spoils. Their urgent mission: to support allies in what would become the final and decisive battle of the Roman Civil War.
To accelerate their intervention, Agrippa led a fleet of swift ships to the battlefield, where they faced the largest armada in Roman history. Despite overwhelming odds, he leveraged the speed and maneuverability of his lighter vessels to evade enemy attacks. Agrippa’s ships pressed forward, closing in on the enemy’s imposing warships, unleashing volleys of arrows and hurling massive stones that inflicted devastating damage.
Thanks to Agrippa’s masterful naval command and strategic acumen, his fleet routed the opposition—securing a monumental victory in the grandest naval battle the Roman world had seen in two centuries.
Agrippa’s legacy extends far beyond his military brilliance and foundational role in the rise of the Roman Empire. He also left a mark as a builder and innovator—most notably as the architect of the Pantheon, a testament to his enduring influence and ingenuity.
