Para Bellum Wargames is now taking pre-orders for their new Version 1.5 Rules for both Conquest: The Last Argument Of Kings and Conquest: First Blood. This means there will be updated, tweaked and streamlined rules for both their Fantasy mass battle and skirmish wargames.

The Last Argument Of Kings 1.5 // Conquest

Here is a breakdown from Para Bellum Wargames about what has changed with 1.5...

"Version 1.5 is a major rules polishing and bug fixing update. Special rules and Draw Events have been optimized with the Special Rule X allowing us to better tailor universal special rules to each individual Regiment e.g. Terrifying X, Fury X etc. Another major update is the way Decay is being resolved, being changed from a Draw Event to a Special Rule! Impact attacks and Obscuration were reworked so as to inflict a higher number of Attacks whilst the Inspired Action was rebalanced."

Rules will be available for you to check out digitally on their website HERE but if you want the new softcover books then you'll be able to pre-order them now ahead of a release of September.

First Blood 1.5 // Conquest

In addition to the more specific rules changes, there has also been a bunch of polishing done. Things have been updated for clarity and a lot has been standardised between the various forces to make it easy to get stuck in.

If you're eager to play some games of Conquest, either in First Blood (skirmish) or The Last Argument Of Kings (mass battle) then this might be a good shout. Make sure to keep an eye out for when these land!
