Conquest

**Conquest** is a game mode that is different from the standard campaigns. In Conquest, your main objective is to puppet or annex all countries. There are no main objectives, and each country starts off from one territory.

## Exclusive Countries

Rebels is an exclusive country in the Conquest game mode. They take up most of the territory of the map but are fairly easy to defeat. Defeating Rebels is how you can gain territory in Conquest.

Rebels are different from other countries as they can never attack your territories, and are enemies with every nation.

Rebels are able to be unlocked via “Retro” campaign completion on Nightmare difficulty. Nor can they be used in any other gamemode except for Conquest.

## Classic Conquest

**Classic Conquest** is one type of Conquest that can be played. In this mode, each country starts on their own capital city and must defeat the Rebels to gain land.

Classic Conquest is played on the Expanded European map which includes parts of Northern Africa, Scandinavia, the Middle East, and more. In short, there are a lot more territories than on the normal European map.

Including Rebels, there are a total of **53** countries that are used in this mode.

## Strategy tips

In general, you want to pick a country that gives a good enough star count. The best include the United States and German Empire, but 3 star counts work fine as well.

At the start, you really want to prioritize getting a territory that contains a Tavern in it so you can heal quickly after taking damage (and you will most likely take some damage).

In Classic & Europe Conquests, the best strategy is to start by invading as many nearby Rebel territories as you can. Once other countries start to border you, try and puppet them quickly. Doing this will earn you an extra soldier and all future garrison.

In Madness Conquest, the best strategy is to spend 1 turn making an alliance with either a country that has either the Sniper or the Laser Gun as they will do good damage toward the Rebels. If you're unable to make an alliance then simply attacking neighboring countries early on to gain puppets that you can later use to attack Rebel territories.

By the later parts of the game, some territories may have between 30-40 garrison in one territory. This does not mean you cannot beat it however! Even if you do not go first, with enough puppets you can defeat them!

In Retro Conquest, the strategy is quite similar to that of the 1914 Campaign. Follow a similar strategy and you will easily win.

**Important Note: Countries that require you to beat a difficulty of any Conquest game mode to unlock them, Retro Conquest DOES NOT COUNT!**

## Trivia

* In most Conquest game modes, there are two or more of the same country from different time periods.
	+ For example, Madness Conquest contains both Austria and Austria-Hungary when they are two separate countries.
	+ Countries like Czechoslovakia and Reichtangle do not appear in Conquest.
