About This Game

States of Power is a Grand Strategy Wargame where you command your nation's armies, economy, and diplomacy. Easy to start, but hard to master - no hours of tutorials just to start playing, and a full match fits in one session. The game is designed for smooth singleplayer and multiplayer gameplay with deep customisation. Control a World War II era nation of your choice - or create an entirely new setting with the Scenario Editor and share it with others.

COMMAND THE WAR MACHINE

Command every division directly. Build an army tailored to your strategy - infantry, tanks, artillery, fighter planes, and more. Each unit excels against some and falters against others. Adapt to shifting frontlines and avoid overstretching your supply lines.

EASY TO START, HARD TO MASTER

You don't need to watch hours of tutorials or read a wiki just to play your first game. States of Power is built to get you onto the map and making meaningful decisions within minutes, while still rewarding the mastery, planning, and bold gambles that strategy veterans crave.

BUILD YOUR NATION

Develop your provinces with factories, research labs, ports, and infrastructure. Balance your economy - construction, goods, military supplies, and manpower, take loans, trade on the world market, and push your industry to its limits. Climb a technology tree from early-war infantry weapons all the way to the atomic bomb. Choose your nation's ideology - Democratic, Authoritarian, Communist, or Fascist and reshape your country through reform or civil war.

CREATE YOUR OWN WORLD - AND SHARE IT

With the built-in Scenario Editor, you can easily create custom countries, redraw borders, design entire scenarios, and script your own events - alternate histories, what-if conflicts, fantasy worlds and anything you can imagine. No external tools, no modding headaches.

When your creation is ready, publish it to the Scenario Browser for the whole community to download, rate, and play.

COMPETE IN RUTHLESS DIPLOMACY

Form alliances for survival or manipulate others before betraying them. Guarantee independence, sign non-aggression pacts, send “volunteers” to foreign wars, or quietly prepare for war. Multiplayer diplomacy is fast and brutal - with global and private messaging built in, your words are weapons too.
