Thank you, I’m new to Nation States and so I’m still getting used to the format and stuff but I’m excited to have some fun! A good friend of mine told me about the game probably a year ago so I finally got into it! He told me you guys used to invade the communists? Like how does combat work in this game?

Good to have you! Yeah, here's a bit of an overview:

Most all regions have an elected leader called a "World Assembly Delegate." The WA Delegate is always the person in the region with the most endorsements (if you join the World Assembly, you can endorse other WA members in your region). It varies by region, but the WA Delegate has the authority to vote on behalf of the region in the World Assembly and often is able to edit the region's info, kick people out of the region, and set controls on who can move to the region.

"Combat" in this game is basically just piling into a region as a group, endorsing one of the group, and taking power "democratically." The new WA Delegate, depending on the region, then forcefully deports any opposition and sets a password on moving into the region so that they can't come back. You'll get a hang of it as you play NationStates more! It's easier learned by experience than by explanation.

It's pretty fun! Unfortunately, Libertatem's "War on Communism" ended a few years ago, but we won a lot of big victories while it was going.
