2-MINUTE GUIDE. IZI AND BASIC

Histerica_the_NinthFebruary 17, 2026guide

Some colleagues wrote to me asking for the guide in English. I used a translator, so I apologize for any mistakes.
Original spanish guide: https://app.warera.io/article/698c6af9e2e07c537d16fc3b

I just joined and now I have to read a super long guide.” It's not that long, and it's written in a cool way. Trust me, there are no weird or complex concepts. It's a 3-minute read. I'll summarize each section in four lines so you can read the guide in 30 seconds.

What's the goal to kick ass in the game? 8 established companies to be as self-sufficient as possible. I know you joined the game to defend your country and kick ass, but hear me out. You need your eight companies to be A BEAST and expand your empire. That can be achieved “quickly.”

Missions? I'm not going to devote a section to them. Do them. They're important.

Where do I work? Wherever you see the best pay, get in and stay until they kick you out.

Military units? Ask and they'll tell you which one to join.

INDEX

TALENTS. I'll explain how to use them. No need to think about it.

COMPANIES. 10 seconds of reading. Read it, it's important and it's only 10 seconds.

BATTLES. Attack wherever you want, without equipment or with a knife. End.

OTHER THINGS. Summary: you don't care about any of this. It's just in case you like it, so you understand little things. Boxes, markets, alliances...

1. TALENTS

Don't have time to read? Then follow this talent path and, if you get hooked on the game, ask questions or read this.


LVL 5 (20 points). Here you'll have 2 points left over, which we should save.
40 entrepreneurship: 2 points (3 total)
60 energy: 3 points (6 total)
19 production: 3 points (6 total)
Companies: 2 points (3 total)

LVL 10 (40 points). 1 point left over. We save it.
45 entrepreneurship: 3 points (6 total).
80 energy: 5 points (15 total).
25 production: 5 points (15 total).
Companies: 2 points (3 total).

LVL 20 (80 points). We're starting to be important. We save the leftover point.
50 entrepreneurship: 4 points (10 total). We don't go any higher here.
100 energy: 7 points (28 total)
31 production: 7 points (28 total)
Companies: 4 points (10 total)

At this level, we will already have 6 companies available. Perhaps not all of them will be built, but the spaces will be available. If you haven't reached your fifth or sixth yet, you can prioritize increasing production or energy to increase talents in companies at subsequent levels.



2. THE F*CKING COMPANIES. Why, God? Why?...

No, man. Listen to me and we'll see. DON'T HIRE workers.

1st LIME (stone) company. Keep that stone.

2nd BRICK company. Hold on... you need stone to make bricks. Yeeeeeeeeey! We have a company that does that and we've been producing them. You're going to need to buy bricks to build your second company, which is why you've been earning money by working.

3rd iron company. Save it for the fourth.

4th steel company. With steel, we will increase the automation of our companies so that they produce more automatically every day.

The idea is to have 8 companies, with automation at 5. Depending on how active you are, you may prefer to upgrade your warehouse to level 2 or 3 (not very active) or leave it at level 1 (if you log in daily). Therefore, create your companies to produce the resources necessary for that goal. There will be time to switch production to food or bullets later.

Where do I place them?

Wherever there is the highest production bonus %. Some countries specialize in bricks, others in steel, and so on. Choose the one with the highest bonus. Natural resources (iron and stone) rotate, so choose the one with the highest % and longest duration. Ask if you don't understand something.


3. BATTLES

I'm skipping the guide. I'm going to attack.” OK, perfect. Look at this battle:

A battle with 150,000,000 total damage. With players doing 11,000 critical hits per attack and accumulating 4,390,000 in a battle.

And there you go, with your knife (hopefully a gun), doing 150 damage.

What do you need to know for the first few days?

You're not going to be relevant in battle, but you can still benefit. Every time you attack, you accumulate a 5% chance of winning a box at the end of the battle. Therefore, we can always attack in the same battle to “guarantee” a box. A 35% chance (7 hits) is good, although you can increase it.

Where to hit?

There are usually national or military unit orders that increase damage (I'll explain that later). See that under “Attack”? That's the order from the military unit and Spain. It's the side we support, so let's attack!

In the game, you'll see it like this:

The first image is because only the Spanish government “orders” an attack there. But my military unit has decided not to do so. If you see both orders in a battle (2nd and 3rd), prioritize it (although you can hit wherever you want).

What equipment to use?

NO EQUIPMENT. Practice nudism or use a knife.
But I have a ham knife.” Well, use everything gray you have or turn it into scrap metal. I recommend you turn the green equipment into scrap metal and keep the rest (blue, purple, yellow, or red) until further notice.

DO NOT buy equipment or food (unless you have a mission). It's a waste of money and won't give you enough damage to be relevant.

4. OTHER THINGS. Boxes, market, Discord, Military Units.

The market is complicated at first. Prices are very volatile, people try to influence them... just buy the resources you need and that's it.

I recommend selling the boxes. Normally try to get more than €4.50 for them. You can set quantities and prices for purchases and sales.

Don't stress about the market because in the early levels it's irrelevant to you.

DON'T BUY anything that isn't for a mission or for your businesses. No equipment, no food, no boxes.

Back to the boxes. The big debate. Summary? If you can sell them for more than €4.30, it's profitable in the long run. Open them if you like gambling.

Discord is a very important part if you like to “socialize.” It's very active, and much of the game takes place there. However, it is NOT necessary to play or have fun. Do NOT talk about IRL politics or sensitive topics. It's for fun, talking about the game, other IRL stuff, and so on. A healthy community.

Military units are exactly what their name suggests. If you belong to one, you can increase the damage you do when attacking in battles where orders have been given. In addition, every 12 hours they regenerate 10 health points for free. Join one and you're good to go.

You'll discover the rest of the features over time. Don't worry, because you'll get hooked on this game because of the community and the excitement; the gameplay is easy to learn.

Ask us anything you want, because we're happy to help. The more people, the more fun we have.
