Quick rundown of what you do during a game :
* **Manage your regions**
Your regions are the main source for resources needed to fund your war efforts, so managing them in an effective way is very important. So you’ll spend much time constructing buildings inside your regions and upgrading them. You also need to make sure your people are happy or you’re going to loose regions. You can select from dozens of different buildings in several categories (military, civil, research, health-care, science, leisure, etc.).
* **Manage your armies**
Since this is a hostile environment it’s inevitable to have a well-managed army. So you need to create and manage division, construct, assign and upgrade military units and hire generals for your divisions that give them bonusses.
* **Unlock new technologies**
The game offers dozens of technologies to be researched by your scientists, with technologies often unlocking new technologies alongside buildings and military units or
giving you advantages over your enemies. So steady research is a must to survive.
* **Work on global projects**
Global projects are mighty projects that need your whole nation’s attention to finish. There are two different categories : Active projects with powerfull attacks you can unleash onto your enemies (nukes, pandemics) and passive projects that boost your nation’s skills (build faster, bolster espionage skills). These projects are expensive and need time to unlock but they can become real game changers.
* **Do espionage and sabotage**
The game includes a deep and complex espionage and sabotage system. You can hire agents to infiltrate enemie regions or data nets and even put them into your own regions to do counter espionage. You can get important data from your enemies and even demolish their buildings or steal credits from them. But don’t get caught!
* **Manage your staff**
A leader is only as good as it’s staff. So hire and train your scientists, agents and generals so they can give you an advantage over your enemies. A well-trained general attached to a mighty division can become almost unstoppable.

* **Over a dozen of military units**
The game includes almost 20 different military units, starting from the basic infantry to modern stealth-bombers and huge walker platforms. Every unit has it’s strength and weaknesses, so it’s necessary to balance your unit mix. And every single unit has different skins for all five nations and is presented in full 3D.
