Hi, i just registered and i have a question about millitary. How do i build it up? And whats this invasion stuff? Is it like a real war or something? I realize these are very noobish questions but it would be great if somebody could clear them up for me.

First off, welcome to Nation States. The way that you build up an army is through budget. You can find your budget by going to NSEconomy (http://nseconomy.thirdgeek.com/) and then typing the following. ?nation=Akins_Republic. this will get you all of thee information you need on your budget based on the way you answer issues. You then go to a storefront and but stuff from there. If you come to my region you can use the storefront on our forums. The region is The Dominion.

interesting... Thankyou for taking the time to asnwer my query.

Ahh that would be because the region you are in is to large. Move to a smaller region so that you can.

I moved to a small region but now i have another problem. I can view everything just fine but how do i change things? And how do i buy millitary units? I just see a general page with all my countries statistics.

You change your economy by answering issues in a way that you think would change it. You buy stuff from storefronts found in the International Incidents forum. I hope that this helps.

what is this international incidents forum? How can i get there? Thankyou again.

When you click on the forums link from the Nation States game, you should come to a screen with the main forums on it. International Incidents is the forum above this forum on that list.

one last question. How can i place an order? Like it says just put type what you need, but how do i know how much i can get?

This is only how I do it, you may find people that don't agree. I say that 2% of your entire population is the max for an army size, including supply lines at war time. In peace time, I keep about 0.5% ready, and to buy the weapons and stuff, you use your budget to know the amount that you can spend on purchases. I hope this helps.
