The Mightiest Governor event rewards players for doing things they’d do anyway – building, researching, training troops and more – but in a concentrated window. Preparing in advance can multiply the rewards you get.

How it works

  • The event runs in stages, each focused on a different activity.
  • You earn points for the activity of the current stage.
  • Points unlock milestone rewards, and rankings may offer extra prizes.

Check the event screen for the stages and point values each time it runs.

What to save

Between events, save the resources that score points:

ResourceUsed during
Building speed-upsBuilding stages
Research speed-upsResearch stages – see our research guide
Training speed-upsTraining stages
ResourcesAny stage that consumes them
Action pointsBarbarian-related stages – see our barbarians guide

Prepare upgrades

  • Start long upgrades so they finish during the right stage.
  • Keep high-point upgrades ready for the matching stage.
  • Don’t spend speed-ups in the days before the event.

Milestones vs rankings

For most players, milestone rewards offer the best value. Competing for top ranks can require spending far more than the extra rewards are worth. Decide your target before the event starts.

Common mistakes

  • Spending speed-ups right before the event.
  • Chasing ranks you can’t realistically reach.
  • Ignoring stages that match your saved resources.

The Mightiest Governor event rewards planning. Save, prepare and spend in the right stage – your progress will jump every time it runs. Our gem spending guide covers how gems fit into this.
