I was surprised to see that quite few people are struggling with the umbrella Conquest for 1st inning. It's actually super easy if you don't try to take an enemy HQ until you have conquered nearly the entire map. Then pick the HQ you want to play first, and increase your armies until it's at a difficulty that you are comfortable with. Knock them out on rookie difficulty if you want. It's easy! Just concentrate on taking up space, isolating HQ'S, and reenforce perimeter s to 2 to 3 armies to prevent loss of territory. LMK if this worked for you. It actually goes very quickly if you do it this way.
Funny, I actually just headed straight for each stronghold, capped it and left 3-4 fans there as a safety net. Map is small enough that you can pretty much reach each strong hold each turn and play the stronghold game on vet. Then its just a matter of simming to clean up.
After turn 1, take all fans in your stronghold and move them to your front line with reinforcements....sim to the stronghold, win game. Then next turn reinforce the edge facing another stronghold and move all fans (minus a few from the previous stronghold) there and repeat. Steal fans for a turn or 2 for the mission requirement.
My biggest obstacle was the temporary glitch that crashed conquest when attacking the angels.
This is exactly what I did. Went straight to each team, left about 3 enforcements on the stronghold, after the 6 game, I went back and sim'd everything and finished map.
