:. Wars And Battles

i thought i would try..

Great to see this little piece of information :)

Personally, I'm curious as to how the national draft situation plays out. Does it just cause a drop in Happiness until you get your military back into positive numbers? Or does it have a more complicated effect, like siphoning off citizens to automatically compensate for the negative and effectively force you to have positive citizens at all times?

Either way, I'm assuming that it was implemented to offset the "stay in Anarchy and fire off CMs" ploy, since it sort of runs counter to the spirit of the game in some ways.

Hmm question...
So my wee little 3 day old nation gets attacked the first day it is elligible. I have like 16 soldiers, all defending on defcon 4. Warmongering aggresser nation has like little less than 80. They have double my strength as well (20 to 10). My nation ends up killing 7 of their soldiers and loses nothing while taking $.49 . Now I was wondering why exactly this worked out hte way it did. I know they might not have deployed a sufficient force and that they left most of their soldiers defending, but might there be some other possible reason? Do I have a noobie advantage or something? Also I would like advice as to what to do now. Should i declare peace and hope he accepts or counter attack?

Im a beginner in this game and i have question, why should i declare war? Is it just for fun, or do you receive benefits from winning the war?

It's mainly just for run, but you can steal land, infrastructure, and technology from people you attack. Of course, there's always the risk of them taking what you have.

I would recommend declaring peace. If you need any aid, message me and I will send you something. Defenders have a great defense bonus, but it's also random. I'd say you got lucky.

Its me I had to make a new name. Declaring peace apparently wasn't the best idea.

You have been attacked by Tyboar. You lost 12 soldiers and 0 tanks. You killed 4 soldiers and 0 tanks. Their forces razed 0.062 miles of your land, stole 0.000 technology, and destroyed 0.204 infrastructure. Their forces looted $0.00 from you and you gained $0.00 in your enemy's abandoned equipment. In the end the battle was a Defeat.

Your nation has been defeated in battle. You do not have enough troops to defend your nation and your government has been thrown into Anarchy. You have lost all of your tanks, 0.98 infrastructure has been destroyed, and 0.00 technology was lost due to the invasion and resulting riots.


The three day grace period for war isn't long enough IMO. How am I supposed to build my nation if I'm going to be attacked before it can even get strong enough to defend.

It seem it was now changed to 7. Good call admins.

I would like to see the day when negative soldier counts become a thing of the past. Either that or one would very much like to recruit these mysterious negative soldiers and have them in our employ. An Elite Task Force of negative men would surely have the upper hand over all those repressive positives.

how do you steal more stuff once you have destroyed a nations army, i just get this message.

You cannot attack Republic of Clone at this time because they do not have enough defending soldiers or enough land area to fight your forces. The government of Republic of Clone has just been sent into Anarchy due to their lack of security forces. Riots engulf the nation of Republic of Clone as your soldiers relax and enjoy their victory.

When some nations have destroyed my army i have recieved messages informing me of a defeat.

The attack options should add a bit of strategy to war now, I hope.

Is there a chart or something explaining the different types of attacks? And just a suggestion, aggresive attack is suicidal, I wouldnt recommend it.

I managed to kick @## in the Aggressive attack. Killed 400+ soldiers, lost 40, destroyed 5 tanks, 14 Infrastructure, stole 6 land and 1.6 Tech.

Ahh so I guess its a high stakes thing, because I lost 140 soldiers and killed about 40 of my enemy's. But thats not an accurate representation because after the battle I realized I left him with -17 soldiers lol.

Wasnt there a mention of the battle-system going through a change with "planned" "aggressive" and other types of attacks, and were supposed to show up with aircrafts. What happened to that? Is it still coming, or was it just a rumor?

um, that did happen, thats what the last few post were about.


also, im in a war right now (its ending tomorrow), when i got on cn, it didnt show the wars/battle message on my nation page even though im still in the war. it was there earlier today. i can still view it by clicking on the war/battle link on the left side of the screen though.

i did kill the remaing soldiers he has, so maybe with the new update it doesnt show up if the person you're at war with doesnt have any soldiers left. (or maybe it did that before, i dont think ive ever actually reduced someone to exactly 0 soldiers) he also just got ZId so that might be a part of it too. maybe 0 soldiers and 0 infra means it wont even bother you with showing it.

Can ADMIN update this?

I think that you should not be able to nuke nations under 5000 strength. As i keep getting nuked and almost destroyed by more powerful nations.

i'm not in an active war, so can you attack 8 times, or a combination of two?

how do the cautious, planned, and agressive attacks work?
