Henri Winkelman Well the OP (original poster) has been fully answered by several members already and the discussion is still within the scope of the original content, ie: how Easytech rigged the conquest in the past and then the speculation on how it will do it again in EW6 in the near future. The added premise is that Easytech rigged the conquest game (spawns,nerfed allies,ect..) for new players at release in the same manner as they did in previous games but that they will have to do it again in a future EW6 patch and this time rigging it in a different way (aliens or superpowers or what not) for veterans and hardened players. This is not criticism of Easytech, they are absolutely doing what needs to be done so that we have a longer term fun and challenging game.

 Yes conquest is definitely hard in this game. |

Yes conquest is definitely hard in this game. Would it be irony or coincidence if you had an Iron Duke, used him in Portugal & you suddenly start destroying Spain? If only... *sighs* |

The AI is for sure rigged against you. The French navy by Sardinia literally sailed all the way across the Mediterranean to come fight me as Portugal.

I have worked out that there are no stat boosts depending on what side a unit is on, only what nation it's on. In wc4 all your allies would have lower ranked units, but now they have the same rank. So as long as you can survive, winning should be more likely? unless of course the AIs are different

Say you played as Prussia; France, Warsaw, and Denmark would be super aggressive on you but if you played as Portugal you notice that France always targets HRE the most and so does Ottoman and Warsaw. Denmark always targets Sweden as well. The second you join in, they all switch to you lol. |

playing as norway, i've been left alone by great britain. I turned greenland into a fortress but they never came.
you can tease britain into deploying a general into ireland and killing him with your naval general from the start once he goes into the sea by the way.
