All i see is a major skill issue. The early conquests is not hard at all. I mean i even done Belgium 1939 against Germany and beat them (though it was a close call. French artillery actually helped somewhat.). Yeah just think about numbers more. Its not just all about having the biggest cannon on earth to shoot a city. You can’t just have one strong unit without backup. Also the AI is known to cheat a bit early game as it follows set mechanics (e.g. 1942 Leningrad timoshiko super heavy summons like early-mid game)

Try. Spamming. Armored. Car. Japan 1939 will net you enough resources to produce 1 tank per round. Or actually invest in tech upgrades. What do you mean the AI has more resources? What kind of absurd assumption is that? they do. How else can they make so many more armies than me. well ai does get more resources and I was told that by one of the moderators. |

The conquest will be too easy if the AI gets equal or less resources, and since you'll be getting more resources as the conquest progresses, that doesn't matter anyway. We also have the power to choose countries with more/less starting resources that provide different amount of rewards. Of course some countries will be harder than others with the same stars, but otherwise the game will quickly become bland if one does the same conquest many times. The harder conquests are there to challenge players. You, on the other hand, need a lot of learning before you can complete one of these "harder" conquests. Wish you luck in advance. |

No kidding I need learning on how to play this game!!!!!!! That what I have said and asked easy tech. The game does not show/tell you how to play. The tutorials tell you next to nothing about the game. You have to dig around just to find the tutorials. Customer service told to go to the forums and ask how to play the game, what kind of service is that. |

That's what this forum is for: a collection of guides to help new players. When I first started out, I played the campaigns before trying the conquests, just to learn the many mechanics and tactics that the game provides. This game does have a rough start, but what came afterwards is all worth the effort. |

I do agree that conquest mode does need some sort of tutorial. But you decided to do a huge rambling on how difficult the conquest is, without listening to our advice for you. That is your weakness. |

Never knew there was a forum. Do you go find the forum of every game you play when you start to play it. That is a dumb response.

You did not have the tutorial levels? Do you need someone to spoon-feed everything to you? |

Like, tutorial does not teach enough imo. For me it took experimenting to figure terrain, skills, etc. Took me about a few days of experimenting to understand most of the game. Sometimes description might be abit lacking

Just One Bite , here it is. Purple means Very Easy Green means Easy Yellow means Medium Orange means HardRed means Very Hard * means ideal for Achievements of x turns required for y-star conquest, assuming the player has the ideal setup of generals and appropriate tech. This is not like EW6: 1914 so challenge conquests here only have the spam but your tech could catch up against the enemies'. This ranking assumes that you have Guderian, Katukov, a partially-upgraded EC panzer general, Govorov, Sikorski, a partially-upgraded EC artillery general, Sansonetti, a a partially-upgraded EC infantry/air force general. 1939 Challenge Conquest Ranking Three StarsUnited Kingdom*: UK has immediate access to Libya, Abyssinia, Benelux, and Bangkok.
Soviet Union*: Unlike before, we have some units in Siberia in order to immediately conquer Manchukuo and Sapporo. For quick conquest, send some troops immediately to Abyssinia. France*: We could possibly have a quick conquest but her Asian front is not as strong as the British's. United States: We can immediately fight in Taiwan but Iberia is a bit far, though after sinking the U-boats you can already go to Europe. Germany: You have many generals fighting for you, so the conquest will be easy but not ideal for a speedy conquest. Italy: You are immediately adjacent to France, Yugoslavia and Egypt which are easy to conquer for income. Japan: Conquering the China and Southeast Asia will give you tons of income. You also have access to Alaska for early conquest of America. Two Stars Egypt*: Having a heavy tank makes it easy for you to send a highly mobile tank general to Asia ASAP. The rest will focus on Europe and Africa. India: Fairly near to both the Asian and European theater. Could conquer some neutral countries for additional income.Canada: US but two-star version.Republic of China: Although Japan is powerful, ROC has enough income to repel the Japanese.
Australia: Australia is... too far. That's just it.the Netherlands: After Belgium has fallen, the Wehrmacht will target you next. It seems that the Netherlands look good for quick conquest but Thailand will fall immediately to the British/Chinese/Indian forces before you reach Bangkok and Taiwan is heavily guarded.Poland: The only threat here is Guderian. After killing him, you might find your artillery generals battered. But Poland is not too hard since after killing Guderian, Berlin is free to conquer.Spain: Conquering the French Republic and its African colonies is easy and the Americas are not too far off.Romania: Stalingrad is immediately on your doors. You can use it for aerial support.One Star Norway*: Immediately kill Finland and send a highly mobile panzer general on your heavy tank towards Japan. Having two strong air force general helps as you need to go down south to Berlin, then to Munich (and hopefully to Spain), then to Rome, then to Tripoli and then to Ethiopia. Greece*: Yugoslavia will serve as your temporary shield while you produce units. The advantage of Greece is that you can send a highly mobile tank general on a medium tank and Sansonetti towards Asia while you make your way to Europe and Africa.
Denmark*: Germany will ignore you for a while. For a quick conquest, follow the same route as Norway's.
Yugoslavia*: You face the brunt of the Axis forces in the Balkans. However, should you have the appropriate technology, a quick conquest is possible similar to Greece. Mongolia: Mongolia has to conquer Changchun first before producing more field artillery and medium tanks. After that you still have Europe which is so far away.
Belgium: You face the brunt of the Wehrmacht in Benelux.
Bulgaria: Conquer Yugoslavia and Greece first.
Hungary: Same as Bulgaria, except we are further away.
Finland: You start with two generals and is near to Moscow.Thailand: Deploy your strong generals on the medium tank and field artillery you have. Your enemies around you are easy to beat. You know why I did not use Very Hard rating here? Because South Korea 1960 is the true Very Hard country IMO.

Thanks Luigi Sansonetti , 1939 is the first challenge conquest new players must and will face, so this will be very helpful to them. I like the * that you place on countries that indicate which ones are best for challenges. The industry rewards in this conquest are the same as 1975, but 1975 is probably harder, so there might be a minimum requirement of generals and tech to complete an easy rated conquest. What do you think? Also South Korea is indeed hard, even more so when the genius tactician says it's hard  |

Just avoid Guderian. Aside from that, you have Borneo which you can use to do something in Asia. Unfortunately, Borneo is too far away from Bangkok and Taipei is guarded by ships, so I doubt that you could do a 2-star conquest with the Netherlands very quick. Republic of China: Although Japan is powerful, ROC has enough income to repel the Japanese.
Australia: Australia is... too far. That's just it.Poland: The only threat here is Guderian. After killing him, you might find your artillery generals battered.

Belgium: You face the brunt of the Wehrmacht in Benelux.
Bulgaria: Conquer Yugoslavia and Greece first.
Hungary: Same as Bulgaria, except we are further away.
Thailand: The nearest city with Lvl 2 factory is so far away. You know why I did not use Very Hard rating here? Because South Korea is the true Very Hard country IMO. I'd add an asterisk to ROC and Belgium as well. ROC in challenge conquest starts off with a good number of fast generals, making its expedition to Europe and Africa much easier. Belgium is pretty much the same as Yugoslavia, bloodshed for beginners but quick run with good lineup. To get all rewards from 1939 we have to play all but one country, and I recommend leaving Thailand. |
