I have declared war on another country and I have unloaded my army in their country, but I don't know how to conquer it!!!!!
I'm not sure how I get my army to attack!?! they just stand there while my enemy keeps building new armies and attacking my army..
what do I have to do to conquer that country!!!??? :confused:
 
Let me see if I can help. I just recently bought the game and am still learning it however I believe that you should see a burning wall symbol in the enemy province? Your army is laying siege and it will take a couple of months to complete the conquest. You can't rush this process but you can and should send more troops to this area.

Hope that helps.
 
yea that's how you do it.. Oh and a little question, do you like playing COTN?
me myself thinks it's quite booring :p

I like the game. It's great because it's not too overly complicated for those occassions when I want to play a strategy game without too much thinking.

On those occassions when I want to think then I play Victoria or HOI! ;)
 
Okey how many times have you conqured the hole map? If you haven't succeded with that yet it must be kind of fun ;)
 
Well to be honest with you I haven't won yet. It's only been a week since I got the game. I play it in between HOI and Victoria.

I can definately see where this game doesn't have the replay value of say EUII but since I picked up CoTN for $15 you can't go wrong.

Just for the record:
To conquer:
Move your troops into an enemy province (must be at war)
Your troops will start a siege
!! If you select your troops while in siege, you will see the troop rooster and below a trebuchet (a siege machine) with a number OF MONTHS LEFT
When the siege is over - Province becomes yours.

P.S. The time it takes to conquer a province is dependant on the level of fortress lvl 10 can take 5-6 years
P.p.s. Enemy CAN and WILL build troops while under siege, so remember to replenish your sieging troops once in a while.
Last: I am not sure if the amount/quality of troops you use is affecting the time it takes to conquer.

Hope this helped :rolleyes:
 
Hmmm... yes, one of the more sewrious 'bugs' with COTN and Svea rike III is that the enemy can build new units while you are sieging, just hold out for a year ot two and you should be OK...
