K we need the best FWYS (farm while you sleep) conquests list. Requirement should be that it is a 1 star country and that the auto play should be : 1/An almost guaranteed victory. 2/Engaged as early as possible,idealy no later than 2X turns or sooner.List assumes max number of generals,also detail the general unit assignement. I'll start: 1939 Norway: 4 generals on artillery,1 on tank,1 on air. Consistent AI win after about 25 turns (once axis in Europe is seriously damaged) auto run still takes another 100 turns though. Edit: I forgot to mention for auto-play to work best you need to go to setting and set animation speed to maximum so turns dont take as long here is a pic showing it:

To be honest, I already forgot that the game has this feature and I don't even know how to enable it. I guess I need to try it now.

Kanue you are missing out!I am starting to do this a lot,slowly working it out from the easier 1939 era. We need a FWYS for 1960! Once we have a good system for that we will be set! Game goes to Easy-mode. It's harder to achieve consistency with the 1960era since a lot more nukes and missiles everywhere make thing impredictable in auto-play. Ohh engage auto mode by tapping the bottom "auto" after pressing the esc button, here is a pic:

Thanks. I just tried this for the first time few hours ago. I still don't think that auto mode can overcome paratrooper spam in 1950 and 1960 but anyway I need to try it out.

Trick is to have a crushing advantage before engaging auto play,also good idea is to send help to key allies and use ion gun if available to help kill whatever is threatening allies. Enemy generals should be taken out as much as possible.
I dont know if we can find a good 1960 FWYS it might take many tries to find just the right way to ensure 90% chance of auto play success,anyways:
1939 Finland is another choice
1943 India should be easy.
1950 Thinking maybe Egypt.
1960 I think Iran might be prime candidate.

Added the animation speed setting. You can start and stop auto mode at will btw,and sometimes you can see that the AI does weird things that way.

One good thing about auto mode is we can pick any side we want,it doesnt matter if axis or whoever takes longer to win since we are sleeping it off anyways.

Be mindfull of battery life though,shorter periods of auto play like 3 or 4 hours is better than leaving phone self playing and recharging for 8+ hours,because the app still is running long after game over screen.

What do you mean by "farm while you sleep"? Also, how does this all work out?

You get resource from winning conquest by letting the game in auto play and let the AI finish the conquest and let all that happen while you sleep.

Thanks! I was wondering how it worked.

It's a dream that will never be reality. Do one simple adjustment and you win 1975 conquest. I'm just hoping somebody finds a bug in which beating the aliens gets extremely easy and you can farm it.

That and a good app manager to kill all other apps running in the background except for the game.

I have done this twice with the 1960 iran conquest and it worked both times. I would play normal till all but the American continent,Africa and Islands like Hawaii and australia are conquered,then engage auto play.Computer did not disapoint and won under these conditions.

1939 Russia
Took Europe, took Africa, have overwhelming troops compared to everyone, but Japan is doing well and has China and most of eastern coast of Asia.
Then I put the AI on auto and let it run all night. It bottled up most of my troops in Scandanavia (literally every hex is filled for diameter 10 circle) which I had already conquered. They all stay there. The AI never builds any units anymore either leaving me with max of every resource every turn.
This is on Android. Anyone have any ideas? Is this unexpected?
Are my troops cowards, they are congregating as far from enemy forces as possible.
