U/G Nation News Letter



Introduction to the Underground
The Underground Nation is a small community of friends and family that are involved in many different games with a light and informal atmosphere. If you are getting this news letter its because you registered to one of our many forums. We would like to thank you for that and should advise you that we are now only using one forum, to which we will provide the link at the end of this letter. When the idea of the underground started it was only to waste time online, but it has evolved much since that time. What makes us different from most communities, is that we don't limit our selves or the forums to one game.

You can join the underground and play all the games we offer or just the featured game. Or you could not play any game and just hang out in the IRC channel while you work or what ever you do online.









Featured Games
Ikariam.com - Naval Battle of 1216:
In Ikariam there are three viewing methods. With help of the navigation menu you can easily change from one view to the other. On the World Map you have a good overview of the world of Ikariam. You can scroll the map by using the navigation arrows on the left menu. You receive all necessary information about an island by clicking on it. How many cities are on the island, which miracle and luxury resources can be found there. If you once again click on the island you will change to the Island Map. The Island Map shows you all the cities on an island, as well as the miracle and the resource deposit of that island. Click on a town and on the left menu you will get a list of all the available actions, for example Transport Goods or Pillage.
Your population limit is determined by the stage of your town hall. Your population growth is dependent on the satisfaction of your citizens. You have the following options to keep your citizens in good spirits. You can exhibit cultural goods from other peoples in museums. For this you must first enter into a cultural goods treaty with another player. As soon as the treaty is signed you can determine how many cultural goods should be exhibited. Each museum expansion stage allows you one further exhibit, and with that a higher bonus on the satisfaction level in the town.

WARGAMES 2.0
This featured game for the Underground is a a turn based war game, unsurprisingly called "War Games". Don't let the name fool you, it's not all about war. The game is a blend of strategy, diplomacy, and war. The game resets every month, so no one alliance can get a strangle hold on the game every round, it also means that we'll be on even ground with everyone else. Even if you aren't one for diplomacy or fancy words the game still pertains mostly to combat in some form. From spies, to air raids, all the way to chemical missiles the game gives a multitude of ways to fight and win. The game is turn based, and you gain 4 turns every 20 minutes. Turns are what you use to carry out actions, like attack people or build war factories. Everyone starts out as the head of a small country, and you have to manage it's army, buildings, budget, etc. As you build up you make more money and can do more things, such as research better tanks and bombers or enrich uranium to nuke enemies.

The Underground nation
We run alliances in the games we play, mostly called the Underground nation, or U|G for short. Currently we are building our community with members from different games as well as recruiting on unrelated formats. If you are seeing this then you are ready to take part in the Underground Nation experience. We would like to thank you all for registering to the U/G and we look forward to having a good time as we continue to work on building a thriving community.

Membership
What the Underground can offer new members is a spot in our community, including our forums and IRC channel as well as a spot in the games we play. We often find new online games to play and encourage members to bring any good games to the table for us to set up shop in. As well anyone looking to find some cool games to play would be welcome to partake. This news letter is the newest venture the underground has taken on. We find our self in need of skilled writers editors and a graphics team. We have over 250 total registered members on 3 different forums (which have been closed). So we have a projected reader base of over 250 readers.
