Slovak 1941, play somewhat aggressively. Concentrate your force on Yugoslavia first, take em out. Take out(but no necessarily defeat) Soviet 3rd and 4th. Form 6 unit armies when possible to hold cities and to attack to destroy as many Soviet units as possible. Reach Soviet 2nd en masse while German Centre still holds. It’s not necessary to fund your allies. Wipe Soviet 2nd economy and proceed to mop up Soviet 1st and any remaining territories of the other Soviet groups. It's practically required for you to use generals. This strategy is the same for Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria as well. Slovakia does not have a border with Yugoslavia though. You could march through Hungary, but that's sabotaging your own faction. Actually, you don't go to Yugoslavia, Yugoslavia goes for you.  The army in Zagreb will move into Budapest and march north. If you throw everything at the 3rd Army, you're going to leave yourself wide open on the home front. Moreover, South Group needs time to gather its troops first before it strikes. At the same time, Bulgaria may lose at the Nis-Skopje line while Romania has to fight on two fronts. |

Hi guys!
Just downloaded the game. Not a fan of GoG series, but anyway.
Can't understand different modes. ARMY GROUP mode is conquests like EW1 and EW3, and proper CONQUESTS mode is like usual conquests in EW4, EW6 and WC series?
UNITED FRONT is kinda HISTORY mode, right?

Your army group analogy is spot on, Conquest is like GoG1 legion mode but far bigger, united is a whole new kinda boring beast. |

Have no idea what's GOG Legion mode and what is the difference with the WC series conquests but anyway thanks! Haven't decided yet whether I should try the game or skip it as all GoG games  |

Also I highly recommend playing GoG3 if you love highly tactical and complex campaigns because the highest selling point of GoG3 imo is the excellent campaign mode meanwhile the rest of the most while cool and unique are less fun and kinda mediocre compared to the great campaign mode |

Also, I highly recommend GOG:C purely for Legion mode. |

Well, well, well  Hi there an unknown young player Let me share my wisdom of ages Army group is an advanced step of EW5 conquests. Interesting attempt, but imo not interesting enough to awake a vivid response from players. I still have to complete North African AG to collect all rewards. This tactical concept 6 vs.6 isn't good enough for strategies and best suited for online RPGs like Raid and so on. Conquests is a duplicate of GoG Legion mods as it was rightly pointed out. It is not especially difficult but has some possibilities to compete against other players' achievements. My best result was 37 turns so far (Belarusian front ). Obviously there's plenty room for improvement. And last but not least campaigns... These are quite good and interesting, though not as challenging as original GoG campaigns. What is interesting navy geneals are a must have for some campaigns, a feature we asked for. All in all I think you shouldn't skip it. Campaigns at least are worth time investments. |

Tried several factions in 1939. Hope they will update AI so the opponents can use Force March and Paradrop operation. For now it is just bombings they can do. It is also quite easy to block strong enemy factions You don't want to fight right now with non-city/factory territories of other ruined enemy factions. It is a bit strange. Fun of course, but idk how legit it is |

Fun of course, but idk how legit it is AIs do use them, just incorrectly or inefficiently most of the time. France Southern Group actually uses paratroopers properly once, that is when Foreign Legion troops are dropped onto the mainland from Corsica. Other than that, once you get used to Army Group mode, it's not too bad. |

I finally beat a Conquest! So what happened was after beating Poland, I decided to take my weak baby infantry and Cunningham to Britain where after landing. I replaced the infantry with the tanks. Then I put on 6 3 stocks of infs and put Model on one of them, putting it at 4 stocks! After taking Britain. France fell rather quickly. it does seem quite easy to land in the UK if you know where to land : / |

Which Army Group is the best in North Africa? German A. You can dominate the Greeks and British easily. They have the worst gens and Alexander and Monty don't appear until it's too late. They just can't deal with List and Rommel. |
