Grow the engine
Explore land, build capacity, set taxes, manage population, and turn production into networth.
◄ Feature dossier ►
Strategy systems that actually push back.
Conquest Rising is built around visible cause and effect: turns produce resources, choices alter formulas, markets move, intel matters, and seasons end with a permanent record.

◄ Core systems ►
Not a pile of features. A connected ruleset.
These systems feed into each other. A government choice changes your market behavior. Land changes tech efficiency. Spy intel changes target selection. World events change the math for everyone at once.
01
Country Engine
Your country is a machine you tune every turn.
You are not tapping a collector. You are balancing land, buildings, population, tax rate, food, oil, military upkeep, research, and turns inside one season economy.
- Eight governments reshape prices, production, spy strength, military strength, and public-market behavior.
- Buildings define capacity: homes, farms, oil rigs, military bases, industrial complexes, research labs, and more.
- Turn-by-turn results show what changed, what was produced, and what was consumed.

Technology
Research creates identity instead of a flat upgrade tree.
Eleven tech tracks push countries toward different roles: economic engines, resilient defenders, market specialists, missile threats, attackers, or spies.
- Business, Residential, Agricultural, Industrial, Military, Medical, Warfare, Weapons, Strategy, Spy, and SDI all affect different formulas.
- Diminishing returns keep massive land from making every tech equally efficient.
- Research choices matter because government caps and land scaling prevent one country from maxing everything.

Markets
Supply is part of the strategy.
The private market gives every country a fallback. The public market adds player pricing, listings, recalls, standing orders, and live updates.
- Private-market buy and sell prices change with government and market rules.
- Public listings and standing orders create a live order book instead of a static shop.
- Market access has thresholds so tiny countries cannot instantly distort the board.

Intel And War
Combat starts before the attack button.
Recon operations, spy results, target selection, readiness, defender cooldowns, force losses, and battle reports make war readable before and after it happens.
- Safe recon reveals information without committing to harm.
- Harmful spy ops can steal, sabotage, cause dissension, or apply bioterror pressure, but getting caught exposes the attacker.
- Attacks consume readiness and forces. Repeated hits on the same target lose efficiency over time.

Season Pressure
The board moves even when nobody is comfortable.
Bounties, public news, world events, objectives, and season scoring keep leaders exposed and give different play styles a reason to matter.
- System bounties focus pressure on top countries instead of letting the lead become a fortress.
- World events affect the whole active season equally: turn surges, resource booms, and plague pressure.
- Season history records more than final networth, including peak standing, objectives, and Hall of Fame outcomes.

◄ How it works ►
The shape of a season.
A season is a fixed 8-week window with a clear scoreboard. Inside it, every action moves measurable state, land, population, military, technology, alliance, war, while world events and bounties keep the whole board moving.

Launch.
Country creation opens. Players claim names, take Monarchy, switch governments for free, and burn through 100 protection turns. By the end of Day 1 every gameplay system is live to everyone — there are no gated phases.
- Free first government switch — locked in once the next-turn timer fires
- 100 protection turns expire within ~17 hours of country creation
- Starter pack: $100K, 10K food, starter army, 100 acres for every new country
