Military power is only one part of the decision. Build an economy that sustains your ambition, draw the right cards, and decide when a neighbour is more valuable as a partner.

Build your possibilities.
Turn resources into units, infrastructure and future options. New eras change the cards available to everyone.
02 / The arc of a match
One nation.
Three horizons.

The balancing philosophy
Different positions.
A fair contest.
Borders stay intact. Starting resources, garrisons, cards, city slots and one passive country trait are the balancing levers. Exact starting packages will appear here when authored and tested.
Objective access
Distance to the nearest control points.
Resource access
The economic options around your cities.
Geography
Coasts, mountains, straits and borders.
Neighbours
Player distance and neutral exposure.
Country traits are previews and may change with balancing.
Your country is the starting point.
02 / Units & cards
Every piece.
A purpose.
Take ground, develop territory and reach beyond your borders. Build a hand that gives you options, then choose when to commit it to the map.
Basic shelf / land
Infantry
Balance sheet hidden for now
Attack, defence, movement, costs and upkeep arrive with the authored card catalogue.
The market
Buy now.
Commit next turn.
Credits buy the card. Industry and strategic resources pay to play it. Cards bought this turn enter your options for the next one. A seven-card hand makes timing matter.
The basic shelf
Infantry, militia, engineer, worker, agent and garrison. Unlimited copies.
The standard shelf
Reliable capabilities. Earlier-era shelf cards remain buyable as new shelves open.
The contested row
Single copies. Competing purchases go to the initiative holder. Every turn reshapes the row.
A force is only as strong as its support.
03 / Cities & infrastructure
Build the means.
Shape the outcome.
Grow the cities you hold. Put their population to work. Send engineers beyond the skyline to turn territory into an advantage.

Relations open doors.
They do not promise yes.
Structured proposals let you negotiate trade, access and annexation. Alignment controls eligibility. The neutral’s interests and circumstances still determine its reply.
