If and when (yes, I expect Easytech to make a WWI game) they make a WWI game, I hope they choose EW4 style conquests, but maybe have one world conquest just because. The different conquests could be: Europe 1914 North Africa and the Middle East 1914 (long name but it could just be called Middle East 1914) Africa 1914 (Ethiopia and south) Asia 1914 (Australia up to southern Manchuria) Europe 1917 Kaiserreich (alternate scenario where Germany has Northern France, Belarus, Baltic states, Ukraine and Belgium. It's then Germany vs the rest of Europe) N.America 1910 (Germany aids Mexico against America) S.America 1915 (Chile, Colombia, Venezuela, and Argentina against rest of allied backed S.america) I made such a post with detailed scenarios but everyone was hyped about diplomacy Where is this? |

Central Powers: Germany Austria-Hungary Ottoman Empire Bulgaria Ethiopia (not actually true, but this is an Easytech game!) China Thailand Netherlands (?) Chile Argentina Mexico Venezuela Colombia Bolsheviks Finland Entente: Russia UK France Italy Belgium USA Serbia Greece Japan Australia Canada India S.Africa Nejd Romania Brazil Peru Bolivia Paraguay Finland would be split into two factions : red and white (red was supported by USSR and white was supported by Germany) Denmark and Norway would be Entente while Sweden smypathised with Germany |

I made such a post with detailed scenarios but everyone was hyped about diplomacy Where is this? As much as I hate that happening my guess is that easytech might go into the future. Something like ancient times would be great but it would also be hard for them, as an example there weren't as many famous Generals in Rome as during WW2. I would love to see a WW1 game that has a campaign where you can choose the country (lets say France) then your assistant shows you a map of the countries around you and you can choose what way you want to go and maybe ally with someone. With France as the example you would ally with Spain (to cover your flank) and declare war on the BeNeLux countries than Germany would become angry and you would have to decide if you want to pay them or declare war on them and so on. Instead of the "missions" part where you send your Generals to battles you can play these battles by yourself (like the Franco-Prussian War). For conquest I could see maybe 4 conquests 1890 1914 1917 1923 In 1890: Central Powers Germany, Austria Hungary, Ottoman Empire, Russia Allied: UK, France, Japan, all Comonwealths, USA 1914: no need to count entente and central powers 1917: only difference being Italy, USA, and white Russia join allies Communists and Mexico join Central Powers 1923: Central Powers Germany, Austria, Italy (they weren't happy with what they got in the war), Russia, Turkey, Allied: UK, Belgium, France, Poland, USA, commonwealths Of course a game of this size would need alot of time and would be giant in terms of MB. Would you pay $10 for such a game? Edit: Diplomacy is possible of course Afterwards I posted the following If any one wonders why Russia is with the central powers in 1890, it's because Germany and Russia signed a treaty which lasted until 1890 when Willhelm II. refused to extend it and in this scenario Russia would still be in the treaty. Red Russia would be allied with Germany because of two reasons. The first is due to balance, the second is that Germany helped the Revolution happen (they brought Lenin to Russia from his exile in Switzerland) 1923 Germany would attack Poland and because of that ally with Russia which just lost a war against Poland. |

I like EW4 conquest for the reasons that already mentioned above. I also wanna add another one that general's role in WC3 conquest is quite limited since they will be nuked within a few turns.
But, still, I vote for WC3 conquest because...
- in EW4 conquest, you need to capture every cities, kill every units, and destroy every forts.
- WC3 conquest is more challenging. Since your allies are weak, you need to do some fighting and strategy, and that's the fund part. In EW4 conquest, on the other hand, sometimes my allies are good enough that I do not have to do much fighting but they are not smart enough to completely win so I still need to do the mopping up job (which is boring).

I hate it when your allies clear a city but don't take it in EW4 but they block everything so you can't take it either |

When Poland regains independence and goes on a conquest defeating Russians for their homeland. |

When Poland regains independence and goes on a conquest defeating Russians for their homeland. I didn't forget, I just don't think that there's enough material there for a whol conquest. I'd expect a campaign mission of Battle of Warsaw and the March to Kiev, but I don't want a whole conquest. Maybe Europe 1920 could work though, where's it goes like this: Soviets and Soviet Allies: Bolsheviks Red Finns German Communists Hungary Italian Communists Spanish Communists Lithuania Mustafa Kemal's Turks Anti-Soviet coalition: White Russians White Finns France Portugal UK Germany Poland Romania Spain State of Croats, Slovenes and Serbs Latvia Estonia Georgia Armenia Greece Italy Austria (?) |

Mustafa Kemal's Turks is historically correct and thank you for writing it with an u and not ou
Austria no, because the treaty they signed said that they can't unite with Germany anymore and so they choose neutrality until Anschluss

Post by Vatutin on Nov 27, 2015 1:53:51 GMT
Why not both? GOG style with a lot of small,maps and some big ones, + whole world ones Excellent suggestion. GoG has much easier conquests and is a farm paradise. I like to play Operation Barbarossa with Vatutin as starting general (he's the only one on a heavy tank). EW4 is second on my list. I think it's not a surprise nobody voted for WC3 nquests and is a farm paradise. I like to play Operation Barbarossa with Vatutin as starting general (he's the only one on a heavy tank). We got a fan here |

Any other recommendations? Maybe the Irish could work for Soviet Allies(even though they were not leftist at all) and Slovakia could also be Soviet ally? (They were a Soviet Hungarian puppet state during the Romanian-Hungarian war of 1919) |
