Thutmose III History:
Thutmose III was a prominent military leader and pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of ancient Egypt, best known for his military prowess. After officially beginning his reign in 1458 BC, he began building his empire, gradually expanding his rule to include Syria and Palestine. In 1445 BC, Thutmose defeated the king of Mitanni in battle, gaining control of the west bank of the Euphrates River. Under his military leadership, Egypt grew into an empire that spanned both land and sea. Thutmose's military achievements earned him the title of “Napoleon of Ancient Egypt”.
During his lifetime, Thutmose was never defeated on the battlefield. Of all the Egyptian dynasties, the Eighteenth Dynasty ruled the largest territory, had the strongest army, and lasted the longest, and Thutmose III certainly played a major role in this achievement. During his reign, the rulers of Libya and Babylon paid homage to him, and Palestine and Syria became part of Egypt. He was a brave and talented military leader who led Egypt into an era of unprecedented prosperity.
Thutmose III Review:
Thutmose III is a Legendary Commander that players will receive for free in June 2022 when Egyptian Civilization launches, simply by logging in daily for seven consecutive days.
Other ways to get the Thutmose III Commander Sculpture: Tavern (Golden Chest)
You can buy Thutmose's relic in the Museum - increases Attack and Health bonus by 15%.
If you are a free-to-play player, you are better off saving your Legendary Commander Sculptures for other early-game Archer commanders like Yi Seong-Gye (who are still useful later in the game), as Thutmose III will lose competitiveness to other Archer commanders introduced later in the game (e.g. Boudica Prime , Henry V ).
Thutmose III is effective against Richard I because he is a talented Archer commander and has skills that reduce healing and counter damage.
You should not use the universal legendary commander sculpts on Thutmose III if you are in the Season of Conquest in KvK, as there are other better options. You may consider upgrading Thutmose III if you are in the earlier KvK seasons (KvK 1, 2 and 3) when many players still use Richard I.
Thutmose III is better used in enemy or neutral territories because his second skill (Empire Builder) gives his troops increased damage when outside of allied territory.
