You just got lucky last year. It's always been that way in conquest

It’s literally never been that way lol

half way through the year last year, they upped the difficulty to make conquest more challenging. Those of us who played it noticed a difference (the person you're laughing at), and SDS went into a ton of detail about it in one of their live streams.

So yes, it is that way. It's frustrating at times, but it's how the game plays now.

Fair enough. I've played this game for almost every year its been out and Conquest is noticeable worse this year out of the box. I didn't follow the changes to the mode last year but played a ton of it.

If the goal is to make this mode more difficult, I must ask the question...Why? As I said in the original post, it seems counter productive for a single player, 3 inning game to cost so much time. Seems to be an expensive grind in an already "grindy" game.

Working on completing the 1st inning Conquest map and the entire mode seems to be much more aggressive than last year. I have now lost several simulated game in which my team cell has 12+ and I am attacking a cell which has only 2 or 3. This should be a simulated win every-time for the cell with a 10 point differential. Not sure about others, but I enjoyed the casual nature of Conquest in the past. It seems counter productive for a 3 inning, single player mode, to suck so much time do to bizarre RNG on the game board. Entire reinforcement turns get wiped out for one simulated game against a much smaller piece. Round after round of wiped out reinforcements. This ends up making the entire conquest mode needlessly long and frustrating.

My gripe here is nothing to do with the actual gameplay difficulty, as I do most of the played games within conquest on All Star difficulty. This is a complaint about the world map / game board. This should not be where most of the time is spent because of bad RNG!

This could just be me, but curious if others have ran into the same issue. It just isn't fun.
