What Is The Game About?

Conflict of Nations: Modern War is a real-time based approach on modern strategy. Competing against up to 64 players, you assume the role of a commander during a military campaign. Manage economy, diplomacy, weapons research, and troop mobilisation in order to lead your nation to victory. 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. The top three players in the leaderboards are awarded Gold, CON's premium currency, equivalent to their number of Victory Points at the end of the campaign.

Where Do I Start?

The best way to learn is to simply play through a campaign. Besides normal length games, CON also runs 4x speed campaigns that are especially suitable for beginners to learn the ropes. Use this wiki as a reference as you go along.

You can also ask the community in-game, if you have questions, via the Help channel. Moderators and other players usually answer within minutes, if not right away. While you familiarise yourself with the different elements of CON, below are some aspects that are worth keeping in mind.

Use diplomacy to your advantage to foster mutually beneficial relationships with other players, for example:

It would be advisable to maintain a good diplomatic standing 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.
