Well, reading the stickies helps, but the rules are pretty loose, if you can think it up and justify it, it is generaly accepted, the more work you put into it, the better your chances of it being accepted

a few ground rules
-No nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons until 100 million
-no more than 5% of your population in military
-Do not spend more than you're economy allowed IE I have "basket Case" i buy 7,000,000,000 F-22's, be realisitc
-Dont go waging war until somewhere around 500 million...and dont look for war
-Always try diplomatic solutions 1st, and remmeber, theres more to war than just shooting stuff
-Be realistic in troop deployments, you cant send 100,000,000 men around the woruld in 2 hours...normaly
-Remember, you're goal isnt always to win, but to "complete the story"

Thank you that helps.

you're welcome, one last thing

NEVEr forget that war doesnt have to be "total war" IE the total destruction of ones population. In war, you have specific objectives to take. Thats a common problem on NS, people go to war, and their objective is the complete and utter destruction of the other nation...thats not realistic at all....keep that in mind.
