If you look in the upper left corner, you will see a large portrait of the currently selected wielder - Songs of Conquest: Exploration - Basics - Songs of Conquest Guide

If you look in the upper left corner, you will see a large portrait of the currently selected wielder. The colored orbs next to it symbolize different types of essences. You can learn more about it on a separate page in this guide: Wielders and spells. The number under the portrait represents the character's level.

Below is a number representing the wielders you have and their maximum number. You can increase it by developing settlements, although it doesn't matter much in the campaign, because the game imposes a maximum of 3 heroes. Below it are portraits of the other generals. You can switch between them at will. The yellow border around them represents movement points.

To the right of the large portrait are two buttons. The character symbol will take you to the card of the currently selected wielder, while the parchment will show you their spells.

The directions symbol and the yellow border around it represent the amount of movement points your wielder has left.

On the right, you will find portraits depicting the units in the general's army.

Exploration

NOTE

In Songs of Conquest, the world is hidden behind the fog of war. You discover it with your wielders. The map is full of different interesting places. It's worth to remember about some exploration rules.

Exploration rules in Songs of Conquest - Songs of Conquest: Exploration - Basics - Songs of Conquest Guide

Exploration rules in Songs of Conquest:

  1. The enemy can flee - if you have a crushing advantage over your opponent, he can flee without putting up a fight;
  2. neutral armies will not attack - neutral adversaries will not pursue your troops;
  3. approaching close to the enemy will allow you to assess his strength - if you get close to the enemy, you will be able to see how strong he is and what your chances are against him;
  4. Automatic resolution of battles is a last resort - unless you are overwhelmingly outnumbered, it is a good idea to conduct battles yourself unless you are prepared to suffer heavy losses or defeat;
  5. It's worth to return to some places - some neutral structures give you bonuses periodically when you come back to them, for example the orchards or the blacksmith; others you can visit once with each wielder and still get the reward, as is the case with sources of knowledge;
  6. do not try to collect everything - the enemy does not sleep, and sometimes you are driven by other factors, trying to look into every corner and collect everything can cause you to lose - focus on mines and settlements;
  7. roads improve your movement range - it's a well-known fact that it's easier to travel on paved paths;
Power sources can look different. - Songs of Conquest: Exploration - Basics - Songs of Conquest Guide
Power sources can look different.
  1. Sources of power do not last forever - during your journey you will come across buildings marked as sources of power, they give you bonuses for a limited time;
  2. Mines and spires are valuable resources - during your travels you will come across various mines and spires; if you capture the former, they will give you a bonus in the form of resources, while the latter will allow the wielders to passively receive essence during battles; remember, however, that the enemy can recapture them;
  3. Tents are useful - during your travels you will come across tents, in which you can recruit some soldiers for free; they are very valuable, especially at the beginning of the game - you can learn more about recruitment on a separate page in this guide: Army recruitment.
