About the Game

Lead your country in one of the most difficult periods of post-war history. At this time, you will have to choose between the strong, or become a great power. To go west or east? It's up to you to decide. Try not to lose your country in the new history, lead it through many conflicts and increase your influence.

Your goal is to imagine yourself as the leader of your country at the beginning of the 21st century. You must improve your country, and this can be done in several ways. You can achieve powerful superiority with the help of strong state institutions and economy. Or you can become a strong military power, conquer your neighbors and proclaim yourself a great power. Both ways have their advantages and disadvantages, but it is up to you to decide which one to choose.

Army

Command an army consisting of infantry and tanks. Infantry is needed to create garrisons and protect conquered borders. Tanks are needed to break through the front. Combine types of troops for victories on the front line!

Generals

The game features a system of generals who can cover the front if you need to focus on something else. Each general can be assigned a mode: attack or defense.

Economy and construction

Develop your country not only on the battlefield: you can borrow money, build offices, barracks and bunkers. Your goal is to achieve maximum prosperity for your country. Combine different ways of economic development to create a recipe for a new economic miracle!

Alliances and Diplomacy

Solving problems with other countries is possible not only in the form of military actions. You can unite with them in alliances, ask for the passage of troops, send humanitarian aid, etc. Use different methods of diplomatic influence to create a comfortable environment on your borders.

National Policy

Solve national problems with national policy: choose a focus for the country's development for the next 60 days. This can be a political focus, an economic one, or a military one. This mechanic has a strong impact not only on your country, but also on the entire region: this is where you will find a strong foreign policy.

Multiplayer

Play with other players! In multiplayer mode, additional diplomacy options are available. Also, the game itself will be much more interesting. Try this mode if you want to have maximum fun!

Modifications

The game modification system allows you to plunge into other eras; Mods greatly change the gameplay, which can greatly affect the experience you get from the game. Modifications are also available in multiplayer mode.

Strength in variety

Remember: You have over 50 countries to choose from. And each mechanic can be more or less important depending on the country. Also, you won't feel the full fun if you play for the same countries.
