My bad then. I've never thought conscription was that good, but then again, the AI doesn't use scouts to take undefended provinces.

Conscription doesn't help in that at all, anyway. Conscription only gets to work in provinces where you have a minimum of 1 PD, AFAIK, which will already be enough to thwart scout takeovers.

Not true. I and others have noted that a freshly conquered province in friendly Dominion will often have 1 PD before you have the chance to assign any. Not that the savings of 1g is anything to brag about, but it does work, so in many cases in MP you could afford to never touch the PD screen until you are invading foreign Dominion.
