Quick question: What do you guys think is the fastest, most reliable, and high reward auto conquest for farming knight badges of course taking into account strong generals and decent tech. Would like to see some opinions on the matter.

Has anyone tried an endsieg in Army Group? I get the sense that Britain 1939 would be very fun

I get the sense that Britain 1939 would be very fun Endsiegs are harder to pull off now since when you declare war on a friendly nation all other allied nations will turn on you aswell with the exception of your own army group friends which is why playing an endsiegs axis in 1939 is harder than allies, your axis friends can snowball and expand better than their allied counterparts. The most popular army group to attempt an endsieg to my knowledge is yugoslav 1st army group so I think you should try them when attempting an endsieg.

Wow this is much more detailed and better than my guide I personally think german group A is easier than German Group B since I have yet to win as them but I'm willing to chalk that up to luck also just wondering how do you color your text? I went for Soviet 3rd. In first 5 turns I had to restart a couple times but after that I nailed it. This challenge actually made me change my playstyle to a quicker conquest with smaller armies. The balancing in this, with the actual battles, needs a bit of tweaking. Maybe to the point where reinforcements from nearby zones could also battle. Extending the battlefield after 5 turns and leaving 3 to 5. Maybe they could have 8 units and this. At 5 turns defenders either retreat or reinforce. At 5 turns attackers either retreat or reinforce. These probably aren't great ideas, but I feel the mode is just shy of being perfect. Naval combat as well needs larger maps and more ships. Carriers are useless.

Well let's just hope future army group maps remedy this. I personally hope that you can have more than 1 ship in a space and for multiple armies being able to engage at the same time in larger battles

Hmm I have some queries about this new conquest mode that reminds me sooooo much of Risk:
1] How do I heal troops? Do I have to wait till tech level 4 for the bonus card? 2] How do I recruit stacked and special units? Or am I only able to use those that were allocated to me initially?
Tysm in advance hehe

Tysm in advance hehe Heal and recruit Infantry stacks in cities (the tiles with a building symbol) And artillery and armor in factories (tiles with the factory symbol) Heal and recruit Navy in ports (see tiles with a navy symbol) Carriers, heavy tanks, and heavy Artillery can be recruited and healed at the upgraded versions of Port and factory respectively

I see. Will experiment with that to find out the mechanics and the heal rate. Thanks!

The new African conquest are quite easy. I have done Greece, German A, and Italian 2nd. German A is definitely the easiest imo, just take out British Egypt and Greece and just fund your allies, I was able to take out Egypt and Greece by turn 13 and I basically did nothing for the many turns after until winning. Your Italian allies and German B can handle taking out France as long as you are able to take out Egypt and Greece. Greece, take out German A in Thessaloniki and Naval invade Italy 1st. Then send a small detachment from Crete to invade the rest of German A, utilizing Forced Marches to take coastal cities. After invading and defeating Italian 1st, land in Tunisia to help take out German B. After that proceed to destroy Italian 2nd and finish off German A.

Thanks for info, I'll probably add the newest army group at the next weekend

I finished all north African Conquests. By difficulty I rank them from easiest to hardest: 1.German A, 2.German B, 3.Italian 1st, 4.British, 5.Italian 2nd, 6.Greek, 7.French 2nd, 8. French 1st. None of them should be hard. At most yellow.

Hi, what is the minimum tech level required to clear one conquest of Eastern Front? I tried the easy German and Soviet countries but my allies just crumble despite me bringing Guderian + Messe panzer group to cut their gens off
