I am really confused about 2 things and they are pretty similar...

1) ppl r talking about building vehicles and buying them to use them on NS and to caryy armies...I have not yet encountered armies or money (to buy things from other people with) will someone please tell me is this just ppl pretending or is it actually a part of NS???

2)I have been told that you are able to send bombs and warheads etc. by message...apparently u have to send a message tht looks summin like this (this bein my version made from what i can rememeber what i was told)

Target: (name of target)

Warhead(s) 1006724 X(number being sent)

From:
...(and then theres some kind of java or HTML encryption)

...what is all this about and does it work or is it just a rumour?

also what is possible on NS? Is anything like this part of the game...i know about invading regions etc. but other wise?

please help

Please read the stickies at the top of the Nationstates and International Incidents journal.

But in a nutshell, it's this: It's all roleplay. Make believe.

Little green army men, arranged on a paper map on your desk, though on NS, the world's your oyster, though you'll find that most of us tend to ignore (literally, "Go away, you're not playing fair") those people who tend to go to excesses.

In general, there should never be more than a thousand of anything, except soldiers. That means no more than a thousand aircraft, ships, tanks and so on and forth.

Beyond that, as I said, it's all roleplay. Make believe. However, I do warn you once again, to play nice and not pick fights. But we will help if you play nice.

ok...
thanks for that
