Andre’s statistics
Every General in Evony has the same statistics, however, their base rates and their growth rates differ. The following table lists Andre’s base statistics and his growth rate:
Statistic | Base rate | Growth rate |
Politics | 110 | 8.69 percent |
Attack | 120 | 9.04 percent |
Defense | 115 | 8.85 percent |

Every time you increase Andre’s level, his statistics will increase, but the amount by which it increases by is the mentioned growth rate. You can also increase his statistics through the cultivation and enhancement processes.
How to acquire Andre Messena
To add Andre to your General collection, you have to participate in the Imperial Lion event. During the event, you can consume Legion of Honor to win rewards. There is also a chance to get the Glorious General Chest.
If you do not get Glorious General Chest after opening 199 times, it is guaranteed within the next opening. However, this effect resets every time you earn a reward.
Evony players can get Legion of Honour from Monsters, Resource Spots and Event packages, but keep in mind that the Legion of Honour will be removed from the game after the event concludes.
Assistant Generals
If you are planning to use Andre as the main General, we recommend that you assign Napoleon (Prime), Mordred, Zhao Yun or Sun Ce as his assistant General.
Though you can also assign Andre to the Assistant General position for Napoleon or Sun Ce.
