What is War of Conquest?

The World

You find yourself in a vast world full of barren lands, gaping seas and impenetrable mountain ranges. You are guiding the fate of a new people, a nation that begins its existence as a small stone age tribe.

But you are not alone in this land. You find many other nations like your own, each one guided by a clever and crafty intelligence like yourself. Each one vying for the same limited resources in this world. And each one seeking to give their nation the technological and strategic edge that will allow it to conquer all.

Two nations: enemies or allies?

Winning

What are the stakes in this often brutal world? There are rumors of ancient and powerful orbs scattered throughout the landscape, their origins lost in the past. There may be dozens of them, some much more powerful than others. Any nation that possesses one of these orbs experiences a paradisic existence unknowable through any mortal means.

And what this means for you, for each of the guides of such a nation, is wealth. Every minute that your nation possesses an orb, its cash winnings can increase. Guard the orb fiercely, capture more of them, seek out the most powerful ones... and your winnings will add up. You can then easily distribute your nation's winnings to each player guiding the nation.

How to Succeed

How do you make your nation powerful enough to conquer? As your nation fights with other nations it will earn points. The more successful you are in battle, the more points you will earn. As your nation gains points its level will increase, and each time its level goes up it gains a new technology. You can choose which technologies your nation researches, favoring those that best compliment the abilities of your allies and can overcome the defenses of your enemies. And by choosing your allies carefully you can share what you've both learned to great benefit.

Technologies a beginning nation may research

To gain an additional and often decisive edge against your enemies, you may sometimes choose to purchase special technologies, items and leaders that bring to your nation strengths that cannot be achieved otherwise. These special abilities are purchased using game credits, which you can either buy with real money via PayPal or StormPay, or acquire by converting your nation's winnings into credits.
