you dont want to do that on your first day. People would just destroy you i advise you learn how to play by reading other posts learn by watching. As if you make a war now large nations will just invade you for fun. :twisted:

It's so true. Every n00bs first post has the :twisted: symbol.
At last, a theory more sound than the laws of physics.

how would one make a declaration of war in this place? :twisted:The real question is, how long will it take me to salt the earth after I burn your nation to the ground?

You RP (Role Play) by writing posts. Thats simple. However you must try and be realistic and not do what typical n00bs do and declare you have an army you cannot support or have.

As stated above, read a few topics first and get a feel for RPing. For getting equipment, you can either make your own (very difficult for a fist timer) or simply go to a thread thats entitled 'storefront' or something similar (they usually have a date in the title declaring when they were last updated).

You usually make an announcement (ex: Rogue Jaffa declares war upon Central Facehuggeria)

Then, inside the actual thread, you roleplay your leader (usually on a televised address or similar appratus) citing the reasons for war. You usually follow up the actual declaration with force deployments and mobilizations. (Ex: In response to this grave threat, we are mobilizing the 8th alpine infantry batallion and the 45th Mobile infantry division and will deploy them to the enemy via (naval transport, cargo plane, Ha'Tak mothership :wink:, etc.)

I have to say that I have never used that emoticon, but then im just strange...

In responce to the original question, read all of the stickies at the top of this board and the Nationstates board, I found them usefull. Also, read posts, esspecially wars between experienced players because they generally have good RP and politics etc.

But then, you were not a n00b, but a newbie. There is a difference, but I'll say it one last time.
n00b = Godmodding idiot.
Newbie. New player.
