Ok, I went for the challange, with 150/10 Lasalle, Jackson and Isabella. S/L and the usage of medikits WHA- Only 15 rounds with Jackson, Lasalle, and Isabella??? Congrats on your WR... I have many questions. 1. Why did you use Jackson? Was he for replacing Washington so he can go fight? But then why Jackson out of all others, when you can just in fact send anyone with trading 5* with a Napoleonic code? 2. Why did you use Lasalle instead of Lan? 3. How did you destroy the southern Spain so quickly without sending Sophia down there? 4. Overall, what exact route did you take? |

    Anyone of you got 20 and below? Otherwise Iβm the king around here, I deserve the worldβs fastest conquerer role on this proboard To be honest, I wasn't tryna get fastest rounds when I started off. That's why I have so much resources leftover, unlike ππ³π°π΅π΄π¬πΊ 's run. I was doing the 700 years with 3 gens challenge. (which I failed) At the end I threw the game because I couldn't get enough resources within R22 for Asia 700. And I just went for fastest conquest record instead... If I tried again, aiming for pure speed, I think I might hit late 10s. However, this may take a while as I need to re-accumulate resources... I started anew... |

lizardpianist , thanks for the corrections/clarifications. (No, I don't know how to undo an acceptance, alas.) Don't worry, I somehow figured out and rejected the answer. |

Only 15 rounds with Jackson, Lasalle, and Isabella??? Congrats on your WR... I have many questions. >>> 1. Why did you use Jackson? Was he for replacing Washington so he can go fight? But then why Jackson out of all others, when you can just in fact send anyone with trading 5* with a Napoleonic code? To be honest: because I have him in my headquarter. This is the game from my no-campaign-Victoria challenge - he was the first 5* trader in the academy - but he is perfect with 5-hex movement. I used him just for battle. I send the given Jackson for trade, he arrived in FortYork in R10. I did not focus on ressources and I had to change a few times without commander for 3*times the price - I did not upgrade anything before R10. >>> 2. Why did you use Lasalle instead of Lan? I had him in my HQ, and as I had no trainers (no campaign) he is so perfect - he was actually the key commander for this rush, even his Sailor skill is very helpful for New Orleans. >>> 3. How did you destroy the southern Spain so quickly without sending Sophia down there? Lasalle! and I'm so early that Spain could not really develop. >>> 4. Overall, what exact route did you take? I will try later to paint a roadmap - so just the key routes: Lasalle on the single light cavalary close to Hessen: he runs to to LittleRock (occasionally because it was empty !) and then on a solo Siege to New Orleans. Isabella untrained but 10/150, so just 4hex, on the double light artillery close to Boston: she cleans the north end of the map from east to west. Jackson on the tripple militia north of Philadelphia :he goes stealing the north farms and then, after Cornplaner, to the final battle of St.Louis.  |

It is the same like R20, Asia looses rice from R21 on - Europe and America from R32 on. If you go for Asian Years it makes no sence to finish before R20! Actually - as long as you are not full, is the best R25 (Amrican conquest) and R30 (European conquest) - up to thse roundbreaks you can collect more rice per round than you loose for being "slower" than R20. |

I did not focus on ressources and I had to change a few times without commander for 3*times the price - I did not upgrade anything before R10. That makes sense, but why did you choose the lv militia for Jackson?>>> 2. Why did you use Lasalle instead of Lan? I had him in my HQ, and as I had no trainers (no campaign) he is so perfect - he was actually the key commander for this rush, even his Sailor skill is very helpful for . Interesting. This explains quite a lot.>>> 3. How did you destroy the southern Spain so quickly without sending Sophia down there? Lasalle! and I'm so early that Spain could not really develop. Same case for me, but I guess Lasalle was pretty strong and fast. The sea battle part was the most annoying part for me, which you seem to have rocked through with Lasalle.>>> 4. Overall, what exact route did you take? I will try later to paint a roadmap - so just the key routes: Lasalle on the single light cavalary close to Hessen: he runs to to LittleRock (occasionally because it was empty !) and then on a solo Siege to New Orleans.

Jackson on the tripple militia north of Philadelphia :he goes stealing the north farms and then, after Cornplaner, to the final battle of St.Louis.
Also... you're not even on your main game... and you did R15. This makes it even more impressive This must mean that there is a possibility for R14 and less if I regain all my items and generals |

For the record, and so that it is as easy as possible to find for as many people as possible, I have decided to repost here the link to the Chinese players' US 1775 speedrun without generals: www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Gx411p79P/ |

So, update. Using my second account, I gave US 1775 another try. 29 rounds again, but I only had 2* Sophia, Kutaisov and Fatimah 44, except I had maxed out all their nobilities using a clicker. On this version of the game, I have 25 campaign stars. I forget what Kutaisov was at for HP; he was 10 for nobility.
I got 9999/5709/9999 and picked up both Kate and Sakurako. I regrouped Kutaisov into Sophia and I'm planning on bringing Sakurako in. That will leave me one slot for a trainer and Kate can wait in the lobby. (ETA; three refreshes and Kutaisov is back! But he will wait until I get Warhorse.)
My strategy was to keep Sophia in the east to help clear out the Hesse fort and generals, then she went west to finish off what was left of the Indians and help tidy up Britain. Fatimah did the end run for starving Britain and Dearborn helped with that, then went down to finish off Cornplanter and clear out St Louis. Greene and Hopkins went through all the small nations and finished up in Spain. Where it was convenient, I let allies capture cities if it would save me a turn.
I had neither warhorse nor snare drum, so I reckon I did OK. On my main account with all the bells and whistles, I should be able to do it a lot faster.
