Strategy Tips
The April Showers Conquest Map offers plenty of opportunities to earn rewards, but it can also be a bit time-consuming if you don't play strategically. Here are some tips to help you maximize your progress while minimizing the amount of time spent on the map:
1. Simulate Non-Stronghold Games
One of the best strategies to save time is to simulate games against non-stronghold teams. Once you've captured enough territories and accumulated a large fan lead, you can simulate the matches against weaker teams. This allows you to focus your efforts on the more important stronghold games, which are where you'll earn the most progress toward completing the map.
2. Skip "Steal Fans" Phase
The "Steal Fans" phase can be a tedious part of the Conquest map, but you can skip it entirely unless a specific mission requires you to complete it. The "Steal Fans" phase takes up valuable time, so if you're aiming for efficiency, try to focus only on the critical objectives that advance the map's progress.
3. Beeline for Empty Territories
When starting out, it's smart to capture empty territories first. This helps build your fan base early, which will increase the number of reinforcements you get each turn. Once your reinforcements are high enough, you'll be in a better position to attack the main strongholds, speeding up your conquest process.
General Tips for Success
- Use Reinforcement Phases Wisely: During the reinforcement phases, focus on capturing as many territories as possible. A larger fan lead will make simulating non-stronghold games much more effective.
- Prioritize Strongholds: Don't waste too much time on weaker territories. The key to success in Conquest maps is capturing and completing the stronghold challenges as efficiently as possible.
