Theoretically it's possible for a 195 most cities finish, just that you need the luck for a strong AI. And I'm not gonna try it again, its way too tedious  |

“This is getting out of hand! Now, there are 73 of them!” Btw I’m talking about the cruiser spam in the Strait of Gibraltar and in the Mediterranean you counted?  I wanted them to go for the middle east but they tried escaping into the atlantic, which would be bad for my submarines blocking the European West coast because why would they ever go the direction you want? It’s silly to trust the AI will do what you want; if that was true then conquest ‘43 wouldn’t be so hard |

It’s always Germany taking Russia and Japan ruining China’s life. Oh, yeah, and let’s not forget Italy and Spain and the doom of Egypt. |

NetherFreek , insane record achieved again by me, not in terms of least turns, but least cities. Beat The Conqueror of least 75 cities, with my 2 cities for 1943. I used Cuba(2 starting cities and one port heheheh). Secured naval dominance both in the metiderranean and the pacific, so that the axis can't annihilate africa, brazil can establish a foothold on dakar, and the japanese navy can be defeated asap for the allied spam to counter the axis spam coming from defeated russia. Spawned fully upgraded Guderian in a triple-stacked medium tank and sent him to asia to help with the romanians and the italians. Full technology used.  biggest thing hampering progress was the lack of tech resources for spawning of carriers and cruisers, essential in this record. Got a load of help from dowding.  first time im actually proud of my allies lol.  the spam makes my eyes hurt  way too easy for my allies, especially with arnold and nimitz at the bottom ensuring that the remaining enemy cities can't spawn anything.  voila 2 cities. if matthew did this he would get 0 or 1 cities like his 1939 record lol steelixir keep trying! The allies have a higher chance to win in 1943, and if you have generals you can make it much easier for brazil, mexico and usa |

I think the North/South American countries are the easiest in 43, I’ll try out Cuba later

Thanks. I had a chance to finish with 0 cities but I waited 1-2 turns too long. Me and my allies were clearly winning but there still was a couple enemy units a couple tiles away that could've taken it if I had moved off. Maybe next time. lol.
Also,do you know how many cities there are in total on conquest map?

Do these records have videos that others can watch? I'm curious to see how they were done.

Harry Lillis "Bing" Crosby Jr has his 1943 speed run on his channel which you can find on his profile if you haven't already. He's the only one to record it as far as I know

He's the only one to record it as far as I know also has a yt channel where he uploads his videos (although not his records as of yet) I guess im the only one for wc4, assuming Max Otto von Stierlitz does not have a yt channel |
