The Basics

You are a kingdom in a sector with many others.

You are able to join an alliance with those that share your interests.

You may send out skilled workers to explore new planets or attack other players.

Your kingdom is made up of: money, power, population, land, military units, scientists, and probes. All of these provide a value to your score and when added together you have your networth. The networth is your kingdoms size and strength.

You can train soldiers and construct new units for the military and you have soldiers available to draft into elite units.

You can send your armies into enemy lands to capture their land and resources. In the Lab, your scientists develop and discover new technology.

Attack time and other factors depends on where other kingdoms coordinates are on the galaxy map. Every kingdom in your sector could be your ally and you could fight with them against other kingdoms or sectors to expand your size. There are no guarantees that your sector mates will desire this path.

You can launch missiles at enemy kingdoms to destroy entire planets and populations, but be warned that this tactic is not looked on favorably in universal politics.

There are food kingdoms to help you grow in certain sectors. Sectors 1-3 are for food while the rest are Players/AI Players. Tier 1 food in sector 1: 200 land, 35k robs, 40 tanks defense. Tier 2 food in sector 2: 500 land, 60k robs, 1000-2000 tanks defense. Tier 3 food in sector 3: 1500-2500, 100k robs, 3000-30,000 tanks defense 15k probe defense.

You can send probes through the hypergate to other Sectors and Galaxies to gather intel and infiltrate the enemy.

As kingdoms grow in size they often become more aggressive. Be cautious of how often you are attacking others. If at any point your kingdom runs out of power your shields will be disabled and your military defense and offense will be 20% weaker, your birth rate will be reduced by 90%, and your population limit will be reduced by 20%.

MA protection reduces your land loss by 10% per successful attack up to a maximum of 50%. Your MA protection is reduced by 5% each tick. If you attack your MA protection will be reduced to 0%. When your population falls below 0 at the tick or you have lost all of your land then your kingdom will die, permanently!
Newbie Guide
Buildings Build 80 star mines.
Build 32 probe factories.
Exploration Explore 24 land.
Research Assign 10 scientists to the money bonus.
Rewards The game begins at 12 PM Sklone time. Take your land reward right away. Save your money reward for after the star mines complete. Keep in mind you have 24 ticks ( *1tick = 30 min ) and if you miss it then it will be lost. Do not forget!
Barracks Once you have acquired 16 land build barracks and begin training soldiers. Be careful not to build more than you can support. Check your military for available barrack space as going over 100% will cause population loss and affect your money.
Training Camps After you have sufficient barracks to support your troops focus on training camps. Build 10% of your land as training camps to reduce the cost of military units by 30%. You will want to begin building units at the 24 hour mark so that you have enough offense to attack food, but enough defense to not become a target yourself.
Rubble If you receive arsons or sabos it will create a building called Rubble out of the burn down res and power plants. Rubble can then be razed to recover 40% of the building cost.
Scientists As the game progresses it is recommended to maximize the top 4 research bonuses (Pop, Power, Military, & Money) as soon as possible.
Tips Explore 24 more land as soon as you can but not before. Do this throughout newbie mode. You have enough power plants to last you through newbie mode. It is not necessary to power your shields as nobody can attack you. Raise your military shields once newbie mode has ended. Maximize your money and residence bonus first to increase your income. Attack the food kingdoms as soon as newbie mode ends.

Politics

At one time every sector was an alliance of their own which led to many heated battles. After thousands of years kingdoms grew tired of fighting for leaders that disrespected their desires. The players rebelled as the galaxy was split and a great battle ensued. Neither side was able to achieve victory and instead their grasp on the players slipped. The AI the alliances had unleashed against each other took over the galaxy. A mad scientist named Wicky devised a powerful weapon that was able to vaporize all alliances. Now each kingdom is able to join an alliance of their own.


The sector leader is still visible in the sector as a yellow kingdom and is able to set a sector topic and banner. The kingdom that is elected sector leader is given a 10% research bonus. Alliances can fight over control of this coveted title. The war continues in an attempt to now unite the sectors under one banner, and reclaim control of the sectors. Universal domination is imminent, my friend.
Alliance States
War +10% offensive bonus and +20% gains on declared alliance.
Peace +15% defense, and -15% offensive gains on declared alliance.
Alliance States Info
War, Peace now work to where if one alliance declares it against the other, the other alliance inherits the effect until they declare the opposite condition. War defense losses to the opposite alliance are down from 10% to 7%. If alliance declares Peace the alliance attacking the Peace declared alliance will lose 7% offense. Losses are lowered also by 2% from 7% to normal 5%. Minimum losses is 5%
Exploration
You can explore additional land to expand your kingdom but this becomes costly as the game progresses. Exploring in multiples of 24 will help you to gain the land quickly. Eventually you might desire to attack kingdoms in other sectors for larger gains. The table below is a formula to maximize your growth while in newbie status.

Attacks
You have 4 war generals which are necessary to lead your offense. They can be sent out one at a time or together. If sent together some will return faster. For each general sent together your offense gains 3% additional offensive power. If you send out all of your generals you must wait for one to return before launching another attack.

The game has a built in attack calculator that you will find a link to after you send probes to spy on a kingdom or its military.

Frequency Decryption Probes use the same low end frequencies to transmit data, regardless of who is using them, as the low end frequencies are the only ones capable of transmitting data at such a long distance. Although we frequently pick up signals over the radio, we are rarely able to decrypt it. This is why we have placed scientists on the job to monitor the waves 24/7. When successfully decrypting a transmission we can calculate how many probes were sent, what the probes were assigned to do, and who sent them.

Leaving an alliance has a duration of 48 ticks if relation of War or Peace is declared on your alliance, or if your alliance declares War or Peace. Then it will kick you.

If your alliance declares War on another alliance you can launch the Electromagnetic Missile which lowers the other alliances power produced by 20% for 48 ticks.

If your alliance declares Peace on another alliance you can launch the Ionospheric Missile which increases the other alliances return times by 20% for 24 ticks.(Current sector war gains/offense/defense values still apply to War and Peace)
