Last Updated: May 6, 2021

Whenever you and your army make planet fall, does it seem like you always lose and you get the "bantha fodder" trophy? Do you keep running back to one of your few strongholds and creating a new fleet, all for failed land campaigns? During space battles, do you often crash into your own cruiser, or get vaped by the enemy's fighters because of your inability as a pilot? This easy-to-follow guide is certain to lead you to victory, no matter whether you are on land, in space, or in orbit.

Steps

Take control of your favorite faction in the "Galactic Conquest" menu, or load a previous struggle for domination.

Method 1 of 3:
Ground Combat

1
Before the battle, activate your choice of bonuses to benefit your army during the fight.
2
Use whichever unit will benefit your side the most.
3
Explore the terrain map and memorize your objectives (i.e. capturing enemy command posts) while blasting your way through enemy reinforcements.
4
Dominate the field by using a one-man strategy to force the enemy's reinforcement count to drop to zero or capture all enemy command posts and hold them for twenty seconds.

Method 2 of 3:
Space Combat

1
Hop in a bomber and go to the enemy frigates. Destroying them will usually give you the Guardian and War Hero awards, giving you extra protection/damage.
2
Go to the enemy capital ship. If you don't have the War Hero award yet, then try to kill a few fighters on the way.
3
Bomb the critical systems. The recommended order to take them out is:
- Shields, of course. Just fly along the ship's length, so that all of your bombs are sure to hit. Unload all six at the same time.
- Engines
- Bridge
- Communications
- Sensors
- Life Support

Is there a way to manipulate the system to make battles more historical, such as in the movies?

By changing to the conquest tab, you can change how many NPCs are on each team. However, you cannot alter the outcome of each battle since it is based on how well you do on your team. This will not work with online play.
