Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Pokemon Conquest

Quick random question: How do you start one of those downloaded episodes? Specifically, the Motonari & Motochika episode. No, I haven't beaten the game yet. I'm just trying to get a couple of actual Warlords, rather than the ton of Grunts I've picked up thus far...

Motonari and Motochika automatically join your team, but only in the main story. As for the additional episodes they automatically unlock once you beat the game and will be found on the last page.

Also most of the warlords (as well as some rank ups) aren't available until you start playing the extra stories.
 
Well I finally managed to hold a copy at ToysRUs, couldn't buy it since their system was down and for whatever reason they couldn't ring it up since it has the $10 giftcard you have to have rang up at the same time...so yeah, tomorrow though :D

Probably spend the giftcard on cards or something.

Except that they, y'know, haven't. Yes, I've downloaded the episode. I kinda need them so that I even have half a shot at recruiting the Shinx chick, who randomly showed up on my radar this month.
 
Not to downplay the regular games, but I'm enjoying this way more than B/W, HG/SS, etc.

I hope they make a 2nd one with more Pokemon...

I got Ginchyo pretty easily....She is one of the earliest ones you can get, so she isn't all that tough.
 
The tough part is really positioning. It's rather difficult to recruit properly when you've only got two guys that can potentially recruit her (Eevee and Jiggly). Plus, trying to recruit the 2 guys with her as well. It's rather annoying...

:/ Good point. Though I sort of gave up on both Eevee and Jigglypuff half way through, as they didn't do enough damage and I didn't want Eevee to evolve...That was before I knew that I could stop them from evolving.

Don't know why they haven't. My best advice is to double check that you downloaded it. Beyond that I don't know why they haven't, since they joined automatically.

In any case if you're having a hard time with Ginchyo you could wait until after you get Shingen and Kenshin since they automatically come with Rhyperior and Gallade.
 
Ok so I just got the game, guess I have one question...

I see all these things about recruiting and such...is everything basically repeatable until you can recruit everything? For example, I've never been a fan of having to restart or anything just because I miss something near the start or midway through the game that I can't get later on.
 
Thus far, I've fought the Shinx warlord twice. My biggest problem is that I'm out of space to store my plebs. And I think that might be the reason why I'm having problems recruiting the Shinx warlord.

It looks like there's a spire in the Electric Kingdom that lets you summon random Pokemon and Warriors based on a set Wisdom stat. I'm not certain how often you can use it, but it's there, and it's most certainly usable to pick up some guys you might have missed early on.

I'm actually quite enjoying that there's no good FAQ out there for this game yet. It's something I haven't experienced in a long, long time. I'm hoping I finish before the complete FAQs can be released. That would be spectacular.

Does the download take a month to work? Like, do I have to wait a month before those two decide to join me or something like that?

Once you've beaten the main story you're given several episodes to choose from that focus on a specific warlord. During these you're able to re-recruit any warriors/warlords you got previously and they'll have their old Pokemon. (their link % won't carry over) You can also go out and recruit Pokemon that were previously inaccessible by upgrading facilities via the bank.

So a lot of stuff is repeatable, except the main story. (Don't worry you can get your main character back)

Hope that helps.

If you've run out of room you can select a full kingdom and kick someone out, or wait until you have more kingdoms under your command.

As for the warlords, they probably activate a month later, the passwords work like that as well.
 
Yep, they activated the next month. Actually, they're going to be a HUGE boon to my army, especially this month when I take their Chingling and Ralts into the Fighting kingdom. It's not a perfect army, and it's not as powerful as the one I'm facing, but I've now got type advantage with 3 Psychics, a Flying, and 2 Fires to counter their 4 pure Fightings and a pure Grass. This one will be GOOD.
 
I guess another question...all these downloadable events, are they like repeatable or what? I'm not too clear on how they work...

Other than Motochika and Motonari (as they get added to your team in the main story), all the downloadable episodes are repeatable as are all the bonus episodes. You'll find them on the last page once you beat the game.
 
I just got Pokemon Conquest a few hours ago and I'm liking it. In fact, I'm about to try and take over the Kingdom of Fontaine. I hope Jigglypuff survives.
 
Water? Not too terrible. It gets worse. Much, much worse. And, also, strangely better. Right now, my biggest problem is that I'm out of room to collect new Warlords. And that's annoying me no end, as I've got to recruit the clown mime guy right now, and I've got no space left to grab him...
 
You can run out of room to recruit people? Better make a note of that...is there a way to ditch warriors you've already recruited then?
