With the increase in the number of generals, the strength ranking of siege machine generals in Evony has also been reshuffled. Some of them have exclusive skins and covenant attributes. The statistics of their overall buff value can help you choose your Siege Machine General Combinations.
For siege machines, the importance of the three basic aspects is attack > HP > defense. When screening the combinations, these three aspects should be taken into consideration.
Assuming all general buffs reach the maximum value, we recommend the following combinations.

Notes:
Gunther, Pallas, and Edward Teach’s special skills require a Dragon or Spiritual Beast to be effective. Therefore, if you don’t have extra dragons or spiritual beasts, it is not recommended to use them as assistant generals.
In the above combinations, the assistant generals’ buffs related to march size are either in special skills or in specialties and covenants. Please check them carefully to avoid missing them.
Besides, the above combination also takes into account the general skin and covenant attributes, as detailed below.
