I play a online game called Battlewang, it's a stategic enhanced cockfighting simulation, http://www.battlewang.com Don't go there if your easily insulted, the content isn't censored. However the game is written in php and could easily be altered to work here. Getting the source from the people running it may be difficult. Even if it's not available, I'm sure a bright PHP writer could do something similar.

Been suggested over, and over, and over...
Max isn't going to add War to the main NS page, but it's a feature for NationStates 2.

I would not expect it to be added to this version...
War could be limited to 1 per day/week whatever... to help keep the political nature of the game a feature.
When's 2 coming out?
Not announced yet. As far as I know, jolt(.co.uk) hasn't even started work on it yet... It'll be a while.
War should be added, war is as much a part of politics as making laws is

It won't be. Not to NS1.

And it's not as if there's a sarcity of ways to wage it, just not in a manner involving the game itself.
Anyone want to explain HOW to wage it?
The two main ways to wage war are through
1.) Role play, interesting, plays out a bit like writing a story. See International incedents and nationstates forums.
2.) Region Invading/Defending, by taking over delegacy of regions with groups of UN nations
There are also I believe a few "battle calculators" that factor your population and nation stats to decide who would most likely win a war
