I choose to join the Japanese Nation recently and have come to understand that they are awful. You get enhanced peace treaty's which are great when you don't want to attack for 14 hours straight, or never. Not to mention their second bonus, having your base operate like a turrent, is useless 50% of the time. It only can attack units within Hand to hand range. Anything ranged it can't attack. So most of the time you can just send ranged units first towards it and I might as well not have the bonus. Can someone provide some insight into this for me? As well as if it's possible to change nations?

Just play on... You'll find the beauty of the Japanese trait soon enough. And yeah they are working on the option to change nations, IDK exactly when but they are well aware of this issue.

I chose Japan for my second account. The enhanced peace treaties are especially useful towards the beginning of the game before you sort out a decent defence, they are also very usful late game when buildings take 3+ days to upgrade.

A minor peace treaty is normally 4 hours (destroy town centre), a major peace treaty is normally 8 hours (destroy 50%). If you are asleep or at work, sometimes they do not destroy your town centre or 50% so you will not get a treaty, meaning you can be attacked multiple times whilst you are asleep and lose tons of resources before someone activates a treaty, and even after 4 hours the cycle continues again until you wake up and see all your food/gold is gone!

The town centre turret is minor, makes people waste more troops but is better than nothing.

The other big trait is the increased damage of the melee units, makes them destroy buildings or walls with ease before they get killed by catapults/towers etc, very useful to have

I chose the Japanese nation because I thought their buildings look nice. I didn't know the Chinese nation building looks the same as well. :(

Anyway, I felt that the Japanese nation is a farming nation. Just peacefully exist to collect resources and advance.

I hope they have a Technology Age later, maybe then we can research some SONY Playstations for the troops morale :p
