And those who seem focused on Conquest right now, how quickly did you reach akazone heavy cav in free battlepass? Or is it still kinda far away? I completed 3 full conquests and I'm at lvl6 in the battle pass. Maybe two more will be enough. |

I completed 3 full conquests and I'm at lvl6 in the battle pass. Maybe two more will be enough. Actually I also achieved the "small victory" with Anegakoji in both conquests, besides those three full conquests, I forgot about that. nikomachos, if you want to get the akazonae cavalry quickly, you can get the small victory with some nations that have limited objectives. These are: - Anegakoji in both conquests (you just need to survive for 20 turns and become kami of the privince you already own); - W. Takeda, Isshiki. Shima Navy in the first conquest; Kitabatake, Kono, Ichijo in the second conquest. Maybe Rokkaku in both conquests. With the latter clans you need to conquer some of the surrounding lands. It can take a while, but other nations require even more time to achieve their objectives |

Battle Pass. Kitabatake, 2 stars, medium difficulty:
Short campaign - 25 points.
Hegemony - 70 points.
(in my opinion, the same reward as in ew7).

I am not playing conquest at all right now. Either it will be easier with an update or our generals will be stronger in time so in future these runs should be much quicker. As it is rewards are not that helpful considering half a day work for a single run even if you get S each time. I agree... Rewards for beating conquests with S rank are unacceptable taking into account our time investments. I think another problem is why getting an S-rank here seems a bit harder. I usually play normal conquests in EW7 with only the free Tavern gen, and previously Theodora + Justinian, but got S-rank most of the time, even in Age of Iron. What's the difference now? Because previously we made others surrender and annexed them but here, they're still distinct even as subordinates? |

I think the main issue so far is that AI factions demand too much and offer too little in return. In EW7 (on normal difficulty) factions on the other side of the map are friendly and you need only to pay one tribute or two to make them your allies. Now we don't have any automatic improvement of diplomatic relations with distant clans. Our second significant difficulty is only temporary, I believe. Namely long distances. With fully upgraded horses it should be easier to move fast from one province to the next. |

With an ability to attack again this general could potentially be more powerful than Maeda. The takeda clan are known for owning the AC under takeda shingen so I hypothesize that he's at least one of possible owners. As for others who are also a possible owner I don't know as I haven't gotten AC. |

  So that’s two down. I think I should be way more aggressive with fighting enemies and deploying generals than I am right now. I think trying to ally too many factions isn’t a good idea because that takes too many resources. (Though you definetly should do it to some) |

Hi, if you want to improve relations faster with the clans, at the first turn you can select a Hime, Oichi give's you a +3 i'm relations, and if you invest in the college of citys faster, You can select a Karo (it's like a diplomatic) that give's you another+5, but it's more for the mid to late game, cause they consume knowlege. |

Power reduces diplomacy drop as well. If you expand fast enough, diplomacy will stop going down for neighbors, and after getting Karo, diplomacy can only go up (if you don't mess up, e.g., Ashikaga should be an ally).  |

And I always add Karo before turn 10. It costs 55 knowledge.

I have read some suggestions in discord and wanted to give another try. I got two S ranks but dont know the threshold or the calculation of points so cant be sure. One suggestion that changed my play was focusing on food and knowledge only. Dont build or upgrade dock, market and temple buildings. Following that recruit from taverns using food and knowledge at the start. Coin starts to accumulate as you capture cities more than investing. Next from prestige tab I have picked +1 mobility whenever avaliable. Lastly, No allies just subordinate clans without ambition trait. No resource spent on diplomacy except the one gift and passage agreement for task rewards.
As a result while ignoring half of the conquest mechanism I was able to get S rank. Still cant say what gives you an S but above suggestions might prove useful.
If we had some kind of test enviroment I would subordinate every possible clan without capturing their castles and enemy rest of the ambitious clans (miyoshi, takeda, oda, nagao, ashikaga). For an S maybe we have to clear these clans? Just maybe.
