andrei,dont think there can be a guide on conquest. Nor can i come close to acheiving same results again as it is impossible to predict what enemy will spawn and enemy generals do. As well as what allies are doing. Unless i watched carefully what UK is doing in my game which didnt happen cause i skip like any normal person will which is unfortunate. I only paid attention to where my generals were and what the enemy is doing near my cities and generals.

What are the landmarks used, generals with what units and what turn assigned. Your screen says You made something interesting. In my Soviets 1943 18 turns tech level is same as in Your Egypt 1943 20 turns. And Soviets start with lv3 technology and 14 points income, while Egypt with lv1 technology and 2 points income! And overall tech points by the end are about the same. Means You invaded techologically advanced cities very fast to reach such a level by turn 20. There must be something influencing such fast advance... |

And I am playing conquests (and this one in particular) quite a lot and normally plan each turn to improve the result. Your 9 turns faster conquest means You are doing something totally different in part of economy building. |

i will leave that up to your imagination. TBH i am surprised things go so well Imagination is beaten by mathematics... I screen almost every my turn, so I checked and analyzed all my screens and.. even with Dowding (who increases Technology income 8 times for Egypt) I can reach Your tech level by about turn 27-28. There are no tech cities in Africa. The only possibility to increase tech production is to take enemy cities in Europe. To have such a tech level by turn 20 I need to use Dowding and to have Rome, Madrid, Berlin, Athens, Sofia, Bucharest and Budapest from the very beginning. Which is nonsense And if You don't use Dowding with maxed technology expert as I do it is even worse... That's why You deffinetely made something exeptional. |

U can only do your very best to take those cities 1-2 point for a city (and You still need to capture it and it is not the first turn) is not enough to cover 25-28 points (income You lack from the very 1 turn) each turn handicap. Im my games enemies/allies also build it How do You cover such a difference? It is inexplicable... |

Guide? No one reads my guides anyways lol. . I can't agree with you. They won't read them before they need them  Right now many struggle to complete Cold war missions or simply don't have the last update yet. Your guides are in some words ahead of time . And even that is not the whole story... Let's face the truth: majority of players will never complete WC4. So guide, for example, for the last Modern war mission never will be popular, but it will be very useful for your peers. The same is true about conquest guides... Btw, your answers already had influence on my strategy. After hearing that it is hardly possible to use 4 tank generals in Modern war, I sold Graziani (though I was happy with his performance) and bought Rommel and Leeb instead (though the second Art general was not in my plans earlier). |

If that makes u happy i am ok with that too |

IDK, why is it so difficult for You? This thread anticipates that in case You have a record You could give kind of strategy used with explanation how exactly this is possible. But OK, I also don't want to continue this discussion otherwise it will end up with resume which I don't want to make |

lopicko , You encouraged me to play it again and again Egypt 1943 today. I still can't explain Your technology level, but at least I did my best today with this conquest Egypt, 24 turns  Just compare my tech level with Yours. And here is the income by turn 19 - 46 points only. Dowding gives 10 points from the very 1st turn.  Imo it is impossible to reach Your tech level by turn 20 without using general with maxed technology expert from the very first turn. P.S.: Anyway I am glad I've spend some time to beat my personal record and to get deeper into the game mechanics I have screenshots of each turn from different fronts with income figures, if Your are interested. I would appriciate if You would give a hint regarding tech level increase.

Each turn income influences the tech lvl increase speed, doesn't matter whether You save it or use it. |

You need to speed up taking cities then.
