Had a look at the map. It honestly looks nice and big. What are your thoughts?

My initial impression of this mode is mixed. I feel Easytech has done a big step forward, but at the same time some steps backward. Pros - Huge and realistic map. Easytech has outdone themselves this time.
Cons - Spain in Axis, just why?
- Ireland owned by UK, just why?
- No technology, which adds another element of strategy.
- No borders, which makes the map look less appealing to look at.

To defeat an army group, occupy all city centres marked with a golden star.
There is also a "Forced March" button that allows one unit to perform another full action set (move and attack) every turn.
Use this to seize key cities.
IMO, corner nations tend to be more easily handled since you just march in one direction.

The map is really big which is great and you can take re-assign generals, for me things stop here.
The game is far too easy too England with 3 unites
The economy is unbalanced
AI spams infantry troops
You must rely on AI as it will take forever to clear the map yourself
No technology
Almost all the cities I attacked were un-defended
No real strategy in the game - make 3 or 4 heavy tanks and game over
Overall very bad mode

kovamp, thats how it was in the original GoG, You just had to get a line of field artillery and you basically won. It was still fun tho in my opinion

My opinion on this mode is mixed. It feels like they tried to take the conquest mode from WC4 and change it just enough to improve on it. However, it has some serious critical errors. For one, why the hell is their no borders? Why can you play as Spain? Also, it is a bit to easy and favours the axis 100%. All in All this mode has potential if they just work off what was good from the WC4 mode and work from there, rather than trying to reinvent the wheel.

IMO, it seems like this Conquest Mode had not been intended to be there initially, and was only hastily added (probably because of the demand from the players?) by mixing all of the already available game materials together. As a result, it turns out to be somewhat... 'strange.' My thoughts about this Conquest Mode are already mentioned by kovamp above. So I will add a few more things here - No bordering and coloring make difficult to evaluate the situation, and especially, look for where the remnants of the enemies are. - The map is too big that the enemy's troops are quite sparse... to the point that I feel Katyusha and KV-6 become quite useless. - AI does not know how to defend city. I practically conquered the much of Western Europe with a team of Parachute Jaegers and scout plane. Anyway, do not get me wrong. I am very happy that ET added this mode and I am going to spend a lot of time on it. And if ET had not planed to have this mode initially but only created it as a response to the demand of players then that would be an even greeter kudo from me. |

Why so many people comparing GoG3 conquest whit the conquest of wc4 xD GoG3 conquest is very similar to the original GoG conquest, and that makes sense because both games are from the same serie... Here 2 ss of the original GoG conquest.   Spain was on axis side too, for balancing reasons i guess. Also there was no technology or tactic cards. No borders. Tbh I expected some improves but well at least they added this mode xd. For me, only the early turns are fun to play, late game there is to much spam xD |

For me, only the early turns are fun to play, late game there is to much spam xD It's simply because GoG is much older than WC4. People are more likely to compare newer games with other newer games because they most likely have not played older games. I, for one, am guilty of this: I have played WC4, but not GoG. Another reason, the WC series is arguably easytech's most popular game series, so we're naturally going to compare it to GoG3 because both are WW2 games. |

My initial impression of this mode is mixed. I feel Easytech has done a big step forward, but at the same time some steps backward. Pros - Huge and realistic map. Easytech has outdone themselves this time.
Cons - Spain in Axis, just why?
- Ireland owned by UK, just why?
- No technology, which adds another element of strategy.
- No borders, which makes the map look less appealing to look at.
1. Eire was a British puppet, practically. 2. No borders is fine with me. 3. I don't like that Spain is in the Axis. 4. Moreso than tech, I dislike diplomacy. If they had made this with EW6 tech and diplomacy, It would have been amazing. |

If you mean that they were a puppet de facto, that's not true either. They may have been a pro-Allied neutral, but they were still a 100% sovereign nation. In short, nothing can justify why Britain owns Ireland. If you dislike tech and diplomacy, then why do you want the EW6 tech and diplomacy? |

1. Vichy was a sovereign nation who disagreed and disobeyed Germany in many instances. However, it is still considered a puppet. Belarus is considered a Russian Puppet today, but they are still sovereign.
2. I meant is disliked the lack of diplomacy. Sorry.
