DISCLAIMER! This is a gamemode concept! Galactic Conquest is NOT confirmed to be coming to Star Wars Battlefront II. This is just my concept on how I would think Galactic Conquest would work in the current Star Wars Battlefront II, or a future title. Furthermore, this article is also written as if it is currently a game mode in Star Wars Battlefront II.

"Conquer the Star Wars galaxy one planet at a time as the evil-menacing Galactic Empire or restore freedom and liberty as the noble Rebel Alliance in this modern incarnation of the original game mode."

- Description

Galactic Conquest is a game mode introduced in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II as part of the "Conquer the Galaxy! Update". Like the original Galactic Conquest, its primarily turn-based strategy in which players fight for control over the galaxy. Its only available for the Galactic Civil War era, as much like certain maps are era-based.

This modern take on Galactic Conquest also takes inspiration from its appearances in other Star Wars: Battlefront spin-offs such as Star Wars: Battlefront: Renegade Squadron and Star Wars: Battlefront: Elite Squadron as well as Hasbro's RISK board game.

Overview
Being primarily turn-based, the mode can be played locally with two players or can be played with another player in a two vs two game. Instead of simply porting over the mode, the mode has been reworked from the ground up.

In Galactic Conquest, players will begin by choosing a side, which will be the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance. Players can also play cooperatively by choosing the same side, and will take turns in determining where to attack next, what bonuses to purchase or where to deploy troops. Heroes and vehicles are also available on maps, which are dependent on the map currently being played.

Gameplay
Galactic Conquest features three primary phases: Army Deployment, Attack Move and Purchase Bonuses.
