User blog:FlammeumDraco333/Flamme's Guide to Supremacy 1914!

So it seems my screenshots of Supremacy 1914 have brought a calling to this game, and as the only one who has experience with this game, I think I should go over the basics.

Basic Site Navigation
This one isn't too complicated, though some people have issues with it. When sitting at your home screen (typically "My Games"), there is a list of link on the left side, which have various functions. Not much to explain here, just check it out on your own time.

Managing Your Economy
One of the first things you should do upon entering a map is to fix your economy. Most nations have crappy starting economies (especially Sweden...), so this is a quick thing you can do to fix it. You will see at the top a bar showing all of your resources, click it, and a dialouge will appear with sliders, which will let you modifly which resources you use to help boost your economy.

Changing Your Player Info
One small little thing to add some uniqueness to your game is to change your name, flag, image, and title. To do so, simply click on the circle displaying your person's image and title/name. This will bring up a box to change your info. Make sure you hit save changes!

Basic Province Management
It is always critical to manage your provinces to make sure they aren't in rebellion and are producing resources at their maximum potential, as well as producing troops for your military cause. Simply click on a province, and hover your cursor over said province until a green circle appears over that province's city. Click on that city, and you will see an image of the city appear. Here, you can build/repair buildings, upgrade buildings, and activate/disable some structures such as recruiting offices and barracks. I definitely recommend building a recruiting office in all provinces, as well as workshops, barracks, and fortresses in strategic locations. This will enable you to defend and attack more efficiently. After several days, you will also be able to build railroads, harbors, and factories, which will allow you to move units faster, produce naval units, and even build artillery and tanks.

Still Need Help?
Now this is just a basic overview to give you an overall image of what to do in your game, but if you want a more in depth idea of what to do, check out the game manual here to learn some more advanced tactics and strategies. Hope you all learned something from this guide, see you on the battlefield!
