Gameplay
The Conquerors Gameplay
Troops can be made from various buildings such as Barracks, Tank Factories, Space Links, Airporst, Docks and Forts. In order to create said Units and Buildings you must collect money, in order to get money you must take over crystals and place a Power Plant or a Nuclear Plant near the crystal, but you need a unit near there to place it. Overtime you will get money that accumulates from the Power Plant/Nuclear Plant. Your Command Center is what allows you to build everything, without it you can build nothing unless you have a Construction Yard or a Headquarters. Some special buildings require other buildings such as Nuclear Silo requires two Nuclear Plants. A Nuclear Silo can only be used at the 50 minute mark, and once it has reach 50 minutes you can use it.
The Conquerors has limits on Units and Buildings one of which can be increased. There is a limit of 10 soldiers, 7 planes, 7 tanks, 7 Boats, 25 Buildings, and 15 Walls. All Units can be increased by using houses (+1 each house you have), but there is a limit of +3. The Conquerors also have turrets which there is two kinds, Heavy (the more powerful one) and Regular. Turrets are used to guard stuff and can be very useful. Some of the stuff in Conquerors (such as Radar) can only be accessed with VIP.
Players can form Alliances where they can share the same thing, and the soldiers won't fight each other. In each round, players have 120 minutes until the battle is over. Which ever player is the last one living wins the round. There is multiple maps that sometimes allow allies, or don't allow allies, depending on the map, it can allow you from 0 - 2 allies.
If a Player has left the game there is a chance for another Player to take their spot. If a Player does not take their spot then the base will remain still until one does. There is two modes for your soldiers, one mode is Hostile against all other enemies (excluding allies), and the other one is Peaceful.
In The Conquerors there is multiple maps each with a different area, for example, one might be a ocean while another is completely land. Depending on the terrain shows what vehicles will be useful compared to others. Some areas may be very mountainous meaning air vehicles will lead to a good defense, and some are flat leaving the advantage to ground Units. There is a possible amount of about 6 people to join on one server. It is also possible for them not to spawn with a CC because it was either destroyed or not enough crystals.

Criticism
Some of the criticized things in the game are attacking early, attacking when the person isn't near their base, or (most criticized of all) taking over another player's crystal. If you done anything like this people may consider you a 'noob' and say you have 'no talent'. It can also be said about, literally, the game itself. By destroying another player, they might call you a 'noob' too. Another criticism is rage quitting. Because the amount of losses are shown in the leaderboard if you have regular vip or higher, most people quit when they are about to die. Some players choose to call you a noob if you have joined Roblox in a early year, and use it as a excuse to say "You're such a noob, I joined before you and know what I am doing"
Rules
There is many rules in this game and this will cover the 'Major' ones.
- Rule No.1: In "The Conquerors" it is a rule not to kill another Player on purpose unless their Command Center is destroyed, because this can lead to a unfair advantage with the other player not knowing what is going on while they are dead.
- Rule No.2: No using the ability of hitting a soldier and flying high into the air to get onto a platform and build a building up there that no one can reach.
- Rule No.3: No using any glitches as a advantage.
- Rule No.4: No building a HQ (headquarters) or anything on a unreachable spot.
IBCM Missile
There is a superweapon called the ICBM Missile. It is created at a Nuclear Silo and can be launched anywhere in the map to create a nuclear explosion which annihilates enemy units and damages buildings severely. The silo takes time to make and requires two Nuclear Plants. It can be built after the 60 minute mark. Once the silo is done, you can make the missile in it, this also takes some time. When the missile is done you control it and click on the designated area you want to launch it to and it will fly and land at the target after a moment. If your enemy owns a missile, you should build a Radiation Center in your base to reduce the damage by half done by the missile explosion. The Missile is expensive and you need 1000 all together to make it, but the results are devastating. The only way to stop it is by destroying the Nuclear Silo, and when you do, they can't shoot off the missile. This missile will deal damage to anything no matter what it is, it takes awhile to shoot as well. After firing, another missile may be created at the silo, as long as you have money.
| Nuclear Silo | Missile | |
|---|---|---|
| Time | 15 minutes | 5 minutes |
| Cost | 675 | 325 |

History
The Conquerors is an old game, coming out around 2009, but HatHelper kept updating it until his account was terminated. He then said he will no longer be developing The Conquerors, since he was terminated, and will probably not be able to get his account back. Later, in 2014, [[Community:Berezaa|user Berezaa] was given a copy of the original Conquerers by HatHelper's other account, Alkan, and proceeded to refurbish it until The Conquerers: Mark II was born. This brought some fame back into The Conquerers and added on to the original with new maps, units and buildings. Not long after, HatHelper started development on a 3rd Conquerers game, also slightly based off of modifying the original Conquerers until it was a whole entire other game. He posted several development hints on a development twitter. Development went on until around February of 2016, where he released a paid-access beta for players to play and test the game on. It stayed this way for a few months, and HatHelper (with the game now released with his alternate account BrokenBones) had been modifying it until the game was fully complete and released for free. The game added several new features, such as a flag system, extra hats as cosmetics and several new types of units and buildings to make. It was released to critical acclaim.
