Conquer Rules

This guide covers the specific rules and restrictions for conquest attacks in World War Online.

Basic Requirements

To launch a conquest attack, you must meet these conditions:

Requirement Description
Include a General General or General Boxer in your attack
Valid target Target must be conquerable (not HQ)
Below base limit Cannot exceed your maximum for that base type
All common rules Same requirements as normal attacks

Conquest Restrictions

Base Limits

You cannot conquer if you've reached your limit:

Base Type Maximum Can Conquer?
Headquarters 1 No - cannot conquer HQ
Resource Bases 10 Yes, if under limit
Mine Bases 4 Yes, if under limit
Military Bases 5 Yes, if under limit
Capital Bases N/A Yes, no player limit

Target Restrictions

  • Cannot conquer Headquarters - Only raid for resources
  • Must own fewer than the maximum bases of that type
  • Standard attack restrictions apply (no self-attack, no squad member attack)

Capital Conquest Rules

Conquering Capital Bases has additional requirements:

Requirement Description
Squad membership Must be in a squad
Active Capital Warfare Your squad must have an active session
Valid target Capital must be in your assigned targets
Pre-warfare join Must have joined squad before warfare started

No Attack Limit on Capitals

Unlike regular bases, Capital Bases have no 24-hour attack limit - you can attack the same capital multiple times during warfare.

Victory Requirements

For Successful Conquest

  1. Decisive Victory - You must win decisively, not just survive
  2. General survives - Your General must be alive at the end
  3. All conditions met - Base limits and target restrictions satisfied

What Counts as Decisive Victory

  • Your forces eliminate all enemy defenders
  • General survives through Wave 11
  • Clear victory margin (not a tie breaker)

General Consumption

Generals are consumed after successful conquest:

  • Win or lose, Generals that conquer bases are removed from your army
  • Plan conquests strategically - each General can only conquer once
  • Train new Generals at your Headquarters

Strategic Tips

Before Conquering

  1. Check base limits - Verify you can accept another base of that type
  2. Assess the target - Is this base worth a General?
  3. Support your General - Send strong forces to protect the General through 11 waves

Target Prioritization

Priority Target Type Reason
High Level 10 bases Maximum production value
High Capital Bases Competitive points
Medium Strategic positions Territorial advantage
Lower Low-level bases Less value than building new
