Hi everyone I'm new.I was wondering what the fastest record is on each conquest (besides 1980 if records for those exist) without in-game purchases such as medals or generals. I would like to take a shot at trying to beat them-seems really fun. We don’t currently keep record, but as I have said before, we should. I would estimate that without IAPs (importantly excellence, tank, and arty medals, Zhukov, Manstein, and AF generals): 1939: 10 rounds (9 possible) 43: 9 rounds 50: 13 rounds (12 possible) 80: 15 rounds (14 possible) It is important that the mobility ribbons do not count as IAP. Thanks, this is something I can work towards.

I also have 1943 Egypt 12 rounds record. ibb.co/sCMdGnvHowever, as you say, there are no screenshots of the process, so I cannot have it accepted as an official record. I will take screenshots of the 1939France 6 rounds and this Egyptian record when I have more time and post them here. Thank you all very much! Have you completed 6 rounds again? I was able to get 7 with the excellence medal but am not seeing how you did 6, especially of your strategy is the same as on the video you posted. Europe is doable in 5, but I cannot get Japan fast at all. Did you take Shanghai in round 3? If so then it must have took insane luck; I’ve ran it probably 20 times past round 2 and have yet to see it open.

Sorry for the late reply.I got Shanghai in 4 rounds. From there, they will use C47 to control Tokyo while sending Williams and Yamashita to Japan, and expand further with air power using Corson. At the end, there is quite a bit of luck involved, but basically the flow is to push through and win with the Excellence Medal and the Air Force. There is a guy on discord who cleared the game in 5 rounds, but he is cheating by using a glitch, so for now, my 6 rounds is still the fastest record in the world.

Yeah, I still have yet to see Shanghai opened before round 6. I might need to purchase an AF IAP general for the no-defense or low-cost medals; Dowding probably is no longer cutting it alone. Have you attempted 1943 records with the excellence medal? USSR should still be the fastest, but I’m not sure excellence helps you all that much here. What was the glitch?

1939 record with 7 rounds (8 old). I found some time to try this again. The game changer is the T-44 which is not affected by terrain. Guderian spawning it in Lyon allows for Italy, Balkans, and S Germany to be taken easily. It is probably more optimal to spawn Manstein in it with Guderian going on the default light tank. As is required, this took good excellence medal luck. The only “one-and-done” (only two attacks) was on round 4 in Korea. Getting good luck there could push to 6, along with things I’ll mention below. Looking at my comment in January, I had yet to see Shanghai open on round 4 as the claimed 6 round record did. In over 30 runs past that round now, I have still yet to… If that is legit (or might just require an older edition of the game), along with a more optimized (read: buying p2w AF generals to increase damage) loadout, 6 is possible. When I was testing new perks’ damage, I think I discovered the “glitch” in the aforementioned post: switching perks mid-conquest sometimes seems to activate the old perk along with the new, just switched-to, perk. For example, if the two perks needed are a terrain bonus and explosives (almost always true), you can have inspiration by switching that round.

When I did 1939 France,I only use C47 because of lack of money(cant afford to output any elite forces) I spawned Guderian on a T44 round two because the mobility provided is excellent. I didn’t need cash early-on. Edit: it was Manstein, not Guderian, because his elite benefits are better.
