Entering the World of Conquest- Conquest Lore 

*mutually assured destruction intensifies * XD

Absolutely. I feel like they are a great example of a "Modern wargame company". Things are accessible, free (outside of models obviously) and digital. If you grab a starter set, the reference cards for each unit have QR codes so you instantly tap into the most updated/FAQ'd set of rules every time. It's just using technology as a better tool more and more

Heresy

I watch 40k videos all the time. What Are you on about?

Yea but I do enjoy reading 15 years of old army books. They could have made a more original name though since Google Search gives me 10 million links when I search "Conquest"

​@padrescout From what I understand, that was something of a relatively recent phenomenon. Pre-Covid times, apparently finding succinct lore explanations on RU-vid was much harder, which tracks since 40k was generally a lot more niche and had less mainstream popularity a few years ago than it has now.

Hope you enjoy it! Its easy to chat forever about things that excite me XD

solid game with a passionate company behind it.

fantastic company to support and some super fun rules :)

Mate... you will not be disappointed, the work para bellum has done is amazing

Hope you enjoy it! I've had nothing but a great time interacting with the community, the Conquest team and the actual models themselves

Much appreciated! That's the highest compliment you can give a creator 😍

Lucky for you its super cheap to get into

I mean. Conquest is pretty much cheaper than AoS, if you are not european. And still cheaper if you are.

Haha thank you so much :) Hope I hooked you!

It really is!

It really is!

Thank you, buddy!

That's awesome! I didnt know so many of my viewers had heard of it. Makes me WAY more ready to do Conquest stuff :)

I know. You didnt see me but I was standing right behind you when you said it... *ends creepy act* ;)

That's the plan!

Glad you like them!

Dweghom tomorrow ;)

Hope you enjoy it! It's got some killer models. If you do decide to hop in, I have that code in the description to save you some coin!

Simple. Don't. You won't regret it.

It's a LOT cheaper than anything by GW. 100 Kingdoms are pretty strong, too.

DO IT!

I wont lie, my incredibly positive and helpful community comments section is NOT the place to go for resisting temptation buy things! XD We get quite excited, and would love for you to join us 😉

@@2Tough It might have to wait until after next pay day; since last pay day you've already got me into Warcry!

Thanks a lot!

Yay! Glad you had someone to game with!

welcome aboard!! :)

@@2Tough started following the game around a year ago, but it's going to be much easier to follow the lore with your videos now. Thanks for you work!

Thank YOU, friend!

I have 2 next week! :)

Hahahaa

That's the aim of this series, get more people into it! That being said, for a game as young as it is (about 2 years) the fan base is growing super well, not even considering the pandemic

I feel you brother.

I'll do a video with a fuller dive, but essentially its a rank and flank wargame (but with far fewer models than WFB). Units activate in a "You-go-I-go" style, more like a skirmish game, and there is a lot of tactical depth in how you order your forces. In Conquest, you determine what order your units will activate at the start of the round, so planning your turn with synergies and stuff is important. :)

@@2Tough i like the sounds of a game which rewards actual strategy rather than barrelling in and relying on the statistics of dice rolls. Players who get angry at dice rolls that are below/above average need to remember AoS is as much a game of chance as it is strategy. This sounds like it removes the aforementioned douchebaggery.

haha well I thank you :) I am an affiliate with them (10% off coupon in the description) but no, not being formally paid. I'm just easily excited XD

It does depend on your area. The big thing is to show up (as long as it's safe, bloody plague) and just show the game off. Could be running demos, playing with friends, or just painting/building in a store or club while chatting. Consistency, visibility, and enthusiasm is the key because people generally will avoid games that they don't think people are playing. Rope another person in and it will generally start to snowball from there especially if the game's ruleset/models are as good as Conquest's. You can also see if there's a local Vanguard and see if they can run a demo day and help get the ball rolling.

Also, the pronunciation of the world is EH-AH if you go to google translator and use the voice command for Greek and right the letters ΕΑ you will hear how it supposed to sound.

my dad just ordered me and my brothers' warband boxes and they sent us a free gobbo thing for Christmas.

@@classiccraftdestined.7596 Very nice! I might have to start ordering at Christmas.

nö

Ok, just found out that Ärts in swedish is Pea, which is even funnier

@@losiul Ärtor, but close enough.

EH- AH

It's not stealing, it's inspiration. And it's not really the only thing they're inspired of. We often accuse GW of being generic for the same reason. Conquest isn't the exception here. There is nothing really novative here.

@@sentaijustice9207 It's not inspiration, it's literally stealing the name without even being subtle about it. If the Tolkien Estate finds out about this, they are not going to be happy.

@@ArkBlanc Actually Ea is an old PIE word, meaning land of plentiful waters. Almost nothing Tolkien named, outside of characters, is copyrighted. He simple used old English. A lot. Orc, Shelob, Mordor and other countless words we attribute to him were in fact old dialects that he recovered in his passion for language.

@stavros nailed it before I could :)

Really? This is the most original fantasy world in decades. Yes they've drawn from folk lore but yiu really need to look deeper if you think this is lazy or copy cat 🙄

There's nothing new under the sun XD , I'm sure someone called the Alchemists "derivative" of something else too. That however doesn't mean we cannot enjoy a new way to love the same old thing.
