There is currently a 5th conquest to be released. We don't have much information on it, only that its called European War and starts in 955 AD.
I really don't have much knowledge what's going on in Europe at that time. I don't know what European War the tittle is referring to or what the significance of the year 955 AD is.
Does anyone have any ideas what the conquest is about?

i only know that hungary / magyaren were going crazy with raids. then had a civil war for dominance which Istvan won and became the first christian king of their nation in year 1000.
frankish kingdom is weak and ruptured after vikings. (feudal unrest...weak kings?)
other then that no idea.

I'm guessing Terrorists of EW7. There is very little historical background to that Era, and the name is a dead giveaway.

I think nikomachos is close to the truth. Otton defeated Magyars at Lechfeld in 955 and was later crowned as Roman Emperor, beginning thus transition to Holy Roman Empire. And, of course, there was plenty of actions in Italy, Balkan region and Asia Minor. I assume we'll see a major conflict zone on a territory between Abbasid Caliphate in the east, Rus principalities in the North, Norman principalities in the west and Sicily/North Africa in the south. With Eastern Roman Empire, Holy Roman Empire and (probably) Normans being 3* countries. I won't be surprised they will add Britain too, because 1066 is also close to the period. |

Yet they were able to not adding Louis IX in this game, nor even set a first crusade campaign (not conquest map, because it was too easy and the crusaders didn’t face many enemies back then).

I doubt they are capable of doing so good  Period is very very important both for Eastern and Western Europe. In the east Annihilation of Khazaria and raise of Rus influenced Europe a lot. Bulgaria and Byzantine fight for Balkans. Hungary as a new power. In the west Cordoba caliphate on its peak and HRE as You mentioned. Very interesting but I doubt they are going to feature Eastern Europe. |

Maybe You are right , The name european war sounds like entire european countryes are figthing each other , so maybe we will se Hre , Bizantyne Empire , Hungary , France , and maybe England , Rus principalities and there is a probabylity that The Abbasid Caliphate and Duchy of Normady , and emirate of Corduba. |

I think middle east will be left out, part of Britain and Scandinavia, with a bit of north Afrika will surely be in this conquest.

Men believing in lottery are capable of anything Russian principalities will definetely won't be the case. They have featured british Heptarchy countries in the Units' Handbook from the very beginning even though there are no any unique units presented. And there is no such countries as Georgia, Bulgaria or Hungary in this handbook. ET is very Western Europe oriented when they think about Europe In case Rus will be presented somehow I am going yo be surprised. |

Yeah, units in the Handbook is a good argument against their presence, but, on the other hand, they will add more units to it, I believe. I won't exclude there will be something like East-european line of units. They should add other units to Winged Hussars, shouldn't they? |

We ned only to wait until The 5th conquest is avaible to be played , because only when this will happens we will know what countryes are in this conquest . Maybe there will be more units aded like You said , so The eastern european countryes can be aded in this conquest . |
