Conquer features a new classic map with territories defined by borders, music, sound effects and animation.
This is a highly stripped back version of the game, with no game options currently, and only very simple rules (2 Player, No Spoils, Chained). This is NOT meant to appeal to experienced players (like you), but instead to attract new players to the game, both on CC and beyond. When you play a game of Conquer, you are playing a CC game, which also exists as a game within CC, but is (or can be) played with this new interface.

It's a primitive prototype, of course, but it will get better. It has the flavour of Axis & Allies (in fact, when I first heard the music I thought it was a ripoff of Axis & Allies, but BW assures me he got it from a legit foley site). Obviously it needs work, but it has potential.

That seems like a direction. Conquer Club may just end up being one of many games or game-like elements to a larger platform.

Exactly.

Exactly.
how can something with 276 maps and so many different types of game play/settings, be part of a larger platform?-Jésus noir
