| | + | <b>Conflict of Nations: World War 3</b> is a military-themed strategy game set in the late 20th and early 21st century, featuring contemporary battlefield technology, [[Insurgents|terrorist insurgencies]], and weapons of mass destruction. |
| | + | <br><br> |
| | + | At the heart of the game is a detailed, real-time combat system which gives you control over an existing nation and its armed forces.

This requires a deep level of strategic planning and tactical execution. To ensure your nation’s economic efficiency and technological superiority, you must carefully manage your country's economy, military and weapons research. |
| | + | <br><br> |
| | + | Forming strong [[Alliances|alliances]] and coalitions is an essential part of the modern military environment. <b>Conflict of Nations: World War 3</b> provides you with the diplomatic tools necessary to form teams and interest groups, in order to achieve joint victory and dominate the theaters of war. |

| − | | + | <div class="frontpage-content"> |
| − | Less than a century ago the battles of World War II were fought in fields, cities, and most famously on beaches; they consisted of large formations of clearly identifiable troops who would attack and defend in an effort to conquer large areas of territory.

| − | Modern warfare hinges on [[Technology]]’s ability to coordinate small, specialized, and efficient [[Units]]. Modern warfare takes less and less place in open fields : it is orchestrated in congested cities alongside a [[civilian population]]. Granted, weaponry has improved, but largely, modern warfare revolves around information technology’s ability to coordinate what has become known as a theater of operations- a strategic military battlespace which includes land, air, sea, and space environments.

| − | Conflict of Nations (CON for short) allows for several types of maps, with special rules ([[Public Games]], [[Private Games]], [[Challenges]], [[Tournaments]]), but they all exist on a simple premise. Dominate the world. You are the military commander of an entire nation, competing against an exceedingly competent AI, and, more ruthless, other human players in maps of 26,45,60,100 players !
| |
| − | | |
| − | You will, through [[Economy]], build new economical [[Buildings]] to improve your production, and be able to research better units, product better ones, or to the contrary, go full Red Army by fielding the largest army mankind has ever witnessed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You will, through [[Research]], develop new [[Units]] of War, starting from the early cold war to the tools of modern warfare, to defend yourself or to bend the other nations to your will.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You will, through [[Military]], command [[Ground Units]], [[Air Units]], [[Sea Units]], and [[Strategical Units]] in real-time, using your tactics to overwhelm the enemy and claim their cities. And if they still resist, unleash upon them the nuclear fire.

| − | The game map is based on NASA high resolution imagery, resulting in unprecedented detail of the global [[Terrains|Battlefield]]. Mountains of research went into geographic details, technical information, and of course, into the selection of, and the representation of the nations themselves. This being said, early-on we decided to let game-design rule over realism, providing a “[[sandbox]]” game rather than a political simulation. We are convinced that you will agree with our decision once you start conquering the world as the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Vietnam, or Columbia.
| |
| − | | |
| − | As a player you can approach world domination in a variety of ways: individually, collaboratively alongside other individuals grouped in an alliance; conventionally or unconventionally. As a commander you might want to gather resources, or perhaps, as Japan you decide to focus upon establishing strong alliances with China and your neighboring nations of the Indochinese Peninsula. Are you an aggressive offensive warmonger, perhaps? We have a few of those around... Each playable country offers a different set of variables to consider, and potentially, each one of them has an equal opportunity to conquer the world.

| − | The possibilities are endless.
| |

| − | And, should playing in real-time prove too slow or too anxiety provoking for you initially, as a player you are encouraged to command simultaneous games.
