Ok everyone, I'm Pete, and I run a "Army Deck". Once
LOD came out and I saw all the new things to help
warriors I dropped my old beatdown deck and built my
army, but of course I had to wait on some cards earily
in the process. I love war games so that's pretty much
one reason why I built this deck, the other is because
I wanted to see how this deck would run. I dueled my
friends with the earlier version but with some new
upgrades, I've almost perfected my army. Oh and also,
I might use some warfare words like routed and reform
so please bare with it, I wanted my duels to sound
like a battlefield. Ok, my road to conquest is on, but
first lets check on the units.

Ok, I know, it's quite a large deck, but armies are
large and plus, there were so many choices, and so
little time. The matches are only one round each,
Anywho, to the duels!


Round 1

Conquest Vs. Spirit Deck

Wow, I didn't see that one coming...to think someone
would really build a spirit deck at a tournament
anywho these is how the battle went. First hand was
MST, Captain, Pot, Gearfried, Cyber jar, and Wabaku. I
went first, drew a Exile then used pot to get Axe and
Infection, played Wabaku/MST facedown and jar
facedown.
The guy put 3 M/T facedown and plays La Jinn,
attacks+everything dies=5 cards. We both draw, he has
another La jinn, a man-eater bug facedown and a needle
worm facedown due to cyber jar(damn.....) All I got
out is GAF, Axe Raider, Harpie's Brother, Wiseman and
a Mage power in my hand. He ends turn and I draw Light
of I.(hmmmmmmm......)He flips Destiny Board. I attack
his Jinn, no traps. I MSTed his board when it was my
turn again and later he managed to get his settle
machine out with the serpent combo, also he was
putting layers on it. He did get out Yamata Dragon and
started beating me down with it but Buster Blader
reinforced my forces and crushed him. My army moves
on.....

Round 2

Conquest Vs. Out of date deck

The last booster this guy bought was magic rulers, he
said that he came out of "retirement" to see what had
happened to yugioh, he told me that back in the blue
eyes days he was very good. He went first, 2 m/t plus
a facedown monster in def. My hand was Captain, Light
of I., throwstone, Hunter with 7 weapons, M. shield
and the Gaia Power I just drew.  I set light down and
I play captain, the asked what it does so I explained
it to him. Captain came out safely so here comes
another one and heres come a GAF. I attack with
Captain, it was a sangan(maybe it's a exodia deck?...)
then everyone e;ese attacks him. His turn, he
plays....
despell!, I then flip the light over, too bad despell,
MST replaced ya. He asks again what it does and so on,
he plays swords, and sets G soldier of stone faceup
due to light. Later on through the duel I got Barrel
out and blasted his monsters away with it. He tried
for Gate Guardian later on but it was too late, his
forces had scattered and routed. My army moves on.

Round 3

Conquest vs. Dragon Deck

Hmmmmmmm......a army of dragons, A pretty good army of
dragons, gotta watch out for that Tyrant. Anywho, I go
first, My hand contains Warrior returning, a raider,
Kycoo, Infection, Raigeki, and then I draw Barrel. I
play Raider in Attack and end turn. He plays Card
D.(noooooo)new hand, my new hand contains, Rush R,
Nobleman, Exile force, Skull, and Magican of faith. He
plays Gray wing with a axe and offers his blues eyes
so that it can attack two times, I've taken a hit,
medic!, wait a sec...the medic's already gone,damn!. 
My turn, I draw Feint plan. I set Magican with the
plan facedown. His turn, he plays Super R. giving up
his other blue eyes and cave dragon to draw two more
cards. He then plays spear dragon and attacks, I flip
the plan. My turn, I draw a Freed(finally)I flip
Magican to get Raigeki back and offer for my general,
then I Raigeki the field clean and attack directly.
Later in the match, my general was slain the combat by
Luster Dragon equiped with a axe, major morale lost.
But I didn't give up hope, even if soldiers were
retreating some stayed and fought, It was hard to get
Buster out but I barely did and I hammered the enemy
in one blow. Almost lost there. The tired army moves
on.......... 

Round 4

Conquest Vs. Hades Deck

So the Dark Ruler wants to go at it fine with me, He
goes first and sets 4 m/t down and plays Opticlops in
attack. My hand was a m. guard, Gearfried, Murasame
blade, GAF, Warrior Dai G, and the Harpie's Brother I
just drew. I play Gearfried in attack and we both get
killed. His turn, he plays Jinn and attacks. I draw
swords and use it. then I play GAF in attack and end
my turn. He offers for skull and ends his turn. I draw
Barrel and play my Harpie in attack and I end my turn.
He plays reborn to bring back Jinn and offers it for
another skull. Later on he got out Jinzo with axe and
started chopping but my skull with axe got him.
Nercofear in def was a bit annnoying and those barks
and puppet magic was annoying too. But then I took
heavy hits from Hades himself and his fiends, it kinda
of felt like Custer's last stand. when I only had like
200 life points(oh my, last turn would kinda help
here)
I managed to get out buster blader with a mage power
but he used jammer on it. I attacked Hades himself and
he barked me. The rest of the surviving units
scattered and fell apart, my army had fallen!

My road to conquest will not end here.....

Hey I got 5 dollar store credit which I used to buy a
booster that contained a Ryu-Senshi, A poor man's
Jinzo
