2009-04-08 01:50:35 - Black Friday won the game
2009-04-08 01:50:35 - sheunghei loses 19 points
2009-04-08 01:50:35 - Black Friday gains 19 points

But later, my friend said to me by phone that he had lose the game too, and he saw that in the game log, I win the game by held the Central Power Capitals objective and gain 19 pt instead of I losing.



If you lost 19 points, then you would gain 21 when you win against him. So your friend can't read the log well

As you will have noticed by now, you win when you start your turn holding those 4.
The legend says 'capture', though all objectives should be held for one turn.

You 'are' no one. Your armies are scattered across the map. You could simply win this game like any other: eliminate everyone.
The objective adds something: there are 2 groups of 4 capitals of countries that were allied in WW1; those two alliances were called the 'Central' and 'Entente' powers. If you hold any group of 4 capitals for a whole round, you win the game.
But you could also hold 3 of one group and 1 of the other and NOT win, of course...
To answer your question directly: it's your own choice :) Just go conquer some capitals!

The instructions for this map are wrong...
I captured all the central powers capitals but didnĀ“t win. :-s

You should try to at least get the game objective instructions correct!!!

the text should say HOLD xxxxxx powers capitals to win, NOT CAPTURE! :roll:

I've pleaded for this several times.
Doesn't seem to change on qwert's maps.
And nobody here seems to care very much either, so... :-#

Game 5149422

If a team(in doubles, trips, or quads) were to capture and hold either of the 4 capitals do they win the game? Me and my partner recently achieved this with the 4 Entente capitals and the game didn't end. Just wondering if in team games this meets the objective. (or if it is supposed to)

One of the reasons Italy went Axis in WW2 was that even though they were on the winning side in WW1, they got squat for it.

Hi!

This is a great map indeed, very fun to play, challenging and enjoyable.

The only constructive comment I can offer is that I don't understand why France offers 5 troops while when holding it you need to defend only 3 territories, while Germany offers also 5, when you need to defend all 6 territories. Also, the Balkans offer only 3 troops (2 less than France) but they have the same amount of territories to capture as France, while you need to defend 5 territories to hold them, 2 more than France! So shouldn't really France offer 3 troops and the Balkans 5?

I think this makes France very enticing and easy to capture and hold, and works the opposite for the Balkans. Meanwhile, Italy and the Ottoman empire also offer 3 troops, but with 3 territories to defend (while the Ottoman empire has 7 territories and Italy 5).

Don't get me wrong, this is still a fun map to play, but I wonder on why there such a grave imbalance between the bonuses offered...

You may want to recount your France.

N. france - Belgium - S. France - Corsica.

Other issues that contribute to the value is that it borders 3 bonus regions with a 4th one 1 tert away. Thats 5 terts to defend against (6 counting Bay of Biscay). And 3 of the French terts normally start as a neutral.

I do agree Balkans should be worth more (4) but other than that it's right on.

Europe 1914 for 2 players...

Postby GoranZ on Mon Oct 12, 2009 4:59 am

The map Europe 1914 is totally unbalanced for 2 players... The first player can wipe out the second player, there r too many units for him in the first round. 15 territories r too much, 9 or 10 would be more appropriate.

For a reference I give this game: http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=5737887... I lost 75% of my units and I haven't played my second round, not because of my loses during my attacks or poor defence.

2 player game is favored for 1st mover. But that is part of the challenge. He took 3 terts from you 1st round. He had a good drop and GREAT dice. 3 tert conquers in first round rarely happens.

As for not having 1st move I have won many on this map moving 2nd.

I haven't played a lot of games but for example in Feudal War being first mean that u will move first and the advantage is minimal if there is any... That's why I proposed reducing the number of colonies to reduce the luck factor, after all the fun is in the skill and not in the dice... I'm sure that there isn't a player skillful enough to win in my situation even with the same luck as my opponents(which was huge)...
