ARTICLE CONQUEST Conquest is very similar to domination, just that there is only one neutral point near the center of the map available for capture. This usually results in a swinging battle from one side to another as the action is concentrated in one area, with artillery fire raining down incessantly on the control point as it will be the focus of contention. The focused action on a single point requires a heavy front line, so it is not uncommon to see heavy tanks trying to punch through the lines, with more mobile elements such as light and medium tanks trying to destroy the frontline from the flanks. BATTLE This is a rare mode on the roster and only encountered sometimes. Each team begins with one capture point in their color, usually very near to their base. The team will have to defend their own control point while simultaneously capturing the opponent’s control point so that the victory points will swing in their favor. 60 // War Thunder Community Magazine The GameOn Magazine
