What Is The Game About?
Conflict of Nations: Modern War is a real-time based approach on modern strategy. Competing against up to 64 other players, you assume the role of a military commander and are responsible for your nation's economy, diplomacy, weapons research, and troop mobilisation. Each game, or campaign, can last anywhere from days to weeks. Careful strategic planning will be vital to your success, as you must anticipate your opponents' movements hours, if not even days, ahead.
Goal Of The Game
The winner of each campaign is determined by Victory Points. The first player to reach the Victory Point limit wins the campaign. If you are part of a coalition, you must work together with your team to reach your shared Victory Point limit, as each member's points are counted toward the goal.
Victory Points are earned by conquering provinces and cities.

Basic Commands
We put together a video to help you familiarise yourself with CON's basic unit commands.
Be sure to also check out the keyboard Shortcuts.
Diplomacy
Use diplomacy to your advantage to foster mutually beneficial relationships with other players. For example:
It would be advisable to maintain a good diplomatic relationship with your neighbouring countries, especially in the beginning of the game. This will allow you to engage in theatres of war, further away from your capital, without the threat of invasion by one of your neighbours. Use caution, however, and try to anticipate your allies' motives before you gauge their trustworthiness. Deception is an essential and common tactic as well.
Keep an eye on the News for hourly updates about recent events in the campaign, as well as official statements by other players.
