Gameplay
Units
Units are those things you use to conquer and fende countries. They cost money though, so be wary of what type to buy, and where to put them.
Militia - Militia are a weak defense unit, they are automatically acquired every time you conquer a city. They are great for defensive perimeters to slow the enemy. Secondary Defense Unit
Infantry - Infantry are much stronger than militia are, but are still meant primarily for defense. They work best for trapping enemies or defending your capitals. Main Defense Unit
Tanks - These babies are one of the strongest attacking units in the game. They can push through militia quite easily and are well matched against infantry. Main Attack Unit
Transport - Boats! This can not defend or attack since it's a transport ship. It can carry 10 units at once without upgrade and can deliver amazing blows if used strategically. Make sure to defend them, they can be sunken easily with units aboard by enemy ships or planes.
Destroyer - The most powerful attack unit, except it's a water vessel. It has better defense and attack then the tank and infantry and can take most island nations with ease. It's only enemy is defense lines.
Bombers - Very maneuverable and excellent at stopping movement. This unit can move the farthest and deals a fair amount of damage. It's only con is it cannot occupy a city.
Air Transport - Virtually the same thing as a normal transport, carries a small payload though.
MONEY!
There are three different currncies in the game. There's SP, ProtoCoins, and the in-game currency used to buy units.
Strategy Points (SP) - This currency is used to buy strategies, different units, and upgrades for said units.
ProtoCoins - You can buy these with real money, with these you can reset your account, double, triple, or quadruple your SP at the end of each game. They're also useful featuring your game on the front page.
In-Game money - This currency is only of value in game. You can use it to buy units. Every turn you either get more or less depending on your economic status. Conquer more countries to increase the amount of money you earn each turn.
Ally of Foe?
You can pick people in game to be your allies and/or friends. They could also be chosen as enemies, declare war with someone, or make them your nemesis, so you'll know when they're online and possibly, in your game.
Allies - Allies are your friends, they'll assist (hopefully) in any way they can. They'll send you money, defend your capitals, or squeeze the enemy from another front. At the end of the game you'll split the SP pool with any of your allies. You can even end the game early if everyone signs and alliance.
Enemies - You have an enemy every time you go into a game unless you make an alliance. They can declare war on people and conquer them for SP and the fun of their rage. Is someone being hard to get or being an ass? Add them to your enemies list, so you'll know if they're online, and if they're in your game.
