Capture stronghold on or before 3rd turn?
-
New to the game a little confused by what this is asking. Does this mean in one attack phase? Sorry if this has been covered before if someone could help me out that would be great.

After each turn you get to steal and reinforce, it you look at the bottom right it says the turn. So you can do the steal/reinforce phase after round 1 and 2 and then need to do it before finishing round 3.
-
When you start the conquest go straight to the closest team and play on all star.

These conquest maps are so stupid....I really hope they get rid of them. Just set up direct play the CPU challenges without the idiotic puzzles. Such a waste of time.

Good question...it took me a little while to fully understand Conquest.
1 turn includes:
Attack
Steal
Reinforce
MoveYou don't have to do all of these but once you cycle through them and are back to Attack, your first turn is over and your second turn begins. So like the second poster said, you can do 2 complete turns but by the 3rd Attack phase, you need to attack them and take the stronghold.

So this basically has to be done on a new conquest map?

Disagree. I enjoy the puzzle aspect. The sim part is a bit tedious, but the actual puzzle is fun. It's my first season though so everything is still fun. Maybe in the next few years I'll be over it, but I like the concept, like playing Risk with a baseball team.
I do however wish they were more challenging.

Nope, same conquest map. You can continually attack until you run out of Fans, then you need to cycle through the turn and reinforce to get more fans.
Is this your first time playing conquest? I'd highly reccomend watching a YouTube video. I had no clue what I was doing and that really helped me. There are plenty of players who walk you through every aspect of the game.
To be clear, the challenges you need to compete are exclusive to the map you are playing.

Do one of the previous versions of the game which had Conquest Extreme for the USA map. I think it was 18 that you needed to conquer the Marlins by the end of your second turn and conquer all strongholds by turn 12.

If you already completed all of the map and still need this to get the 45pts; then yes. You have to do it on a refreshed map. But you don't have to do the whole map again. Just this mission.
That's why it's best to see what the Missions are before starting a map.

You don't like the Crab shaped one's?
Or the Wild Card program 'WC' map? If

That was challenging. Beating the Yankees on legend? was a nice challenge for offline players.

I enjoy conquest. I like getting free packs. I like getting xp towards inning programs and it allows me to parallel players. I’ve enjoyed this mode since it’s been out in 16 I believe.

If you did it at the beginning of the year, it was beating that high powered yankees team on legend with silvers and a few golds.

I'm not good at all, but it was fun (albeit stressful) finishing all of those challenges.

Once I figured them out I don’t mind them. I like the hidden rewards too. I don’t like to know what they are beforehand though. I am going to complete it anyway, so I will find out.

This is my first year and I couldn't agree more. It boggles my mind that the primary offline mode of DD has as much to do with a computer cycling through numbers as it does hitting or pitching. Give us 9 and/or 3 inning games in a season style format against other cpu controlled DD teams (like Extra Innings). When I get time to play...I want to play.

I prefer & enjoy doing Conquest maps so so so much much much more then doing Player Programs, Showdown, POTM & all the random moments. With Conquest I could use whatever players on my team that I chose. With all other modes I mentioned you are Locked into using 1 player or need to rely on the luck of a good draft. Either of those 2 things hinders you & IMO is NOT fun for me because I am forced to use players I never would want to use, but need to for the sake of that mode to earn its reward. Conquest is so much better in so many ways.

Squad Battles would be very nice addition in next year of The Show. It would be something else to grind for offline players
