This series explores the world of Eä created by Para Bellum. Conquest has two distinct games: The Last Argument of Kings, a rank and flank massed infantry game and First Blood which is a skirmish game. Conquest scratches all the right itches of a rank and flank strategy while not taking forever to play!
