Summary

A in-game guide can be found in the official Endless War Discord Server's #orientation channel and inside the Gameplay category in this wiki you can find a more in depth look at how this game is played, however this page will seek to explain the gameplay in simple straightforward terms.

How do you play Endless War?
Endless War is a MMORPG played through the VOIP program Discord. All gameplay for Endless War is handled by the Discord bot which responds to commands given by the players. In order for the bot to read your command, we preface it with a ! (e.g. !kill, !goto, !help)

The core gameplay of Endless war is gaining slime via various methods, then using that slime to murder your enemies through gang violence. Although this is the main objective of ENDLESS WAR, there are also some other minor modes of gameplay.

Factions
In Endless War there are four playable "factions". The two main factions are the Killers and the Rowdys, and the two non-PvP factions are the feeble Juveniles and the detestable Staydeads. A fifth faction known as Slimecorp Security Force was once playable but is no longer a part of the game.

Juveniles
The default state of all players in Endless War is a Juvenile, a neutral party unaffiliated with any gang, and too cowardly for combat. If you choose to play as a Juvenile you will be unable to participate in combat, however you gain an advantage for obtaining slime. Juveniles can mine at any time of day, as well as utilize the farming mechanic to gain slime.

Gang Members
The Killers and Rowdys are the 2 opposing gang factions of Endless War. Rowdys kill Killers, Killers kill Rowdies, and both kill Juveniles. Killers and Rowdys are limited in the times which they can mine for slime, Killers mine at night from 8pm-8am, and Rowdys mine during the day from 8am-8pm, as well as gang members not being able to farm. As a gang member you take what you want, and kill anyone who stands in your way.

The gangs are lead by the Kingpins: Ben Saint and Munchy. Next in the chain of command are the revered Consorts for the Rowdys, and Top Killers for the Killers, a hand picked chosen few that make up the inner circles of the two gangs. Below these legends of the streets? These are your common gangsters; the new, the unproven, and the weak.

Staydeads
When a player has died they become a ghost with an amount of negaslime relative to the amount of slime they had when they were alive, players who choose to remain as ghosts are referred to as Staydeads. Staydeads are the only players with access to the sewers which is a location which is 1 min away from every other location in NLACakaNM. Staydeads also have access to the !haunt command which causes living players to lose a portion of their slime, and gives the staydead player an equivalent amount of negaslime.

Due to this, Staydeads are hated by many of the living, seen as drains on the Slimeconomy at worst, and lighthearted pranksters at best.

Slimecorp Security Forces
Whilst some may be content to endlessly battle in the filth-ridden streets, other have loftier ambitions. For those who see only self-destruction and cringe in the endless gang violence, there is another path. The Slimecorp Security Forces. Universally hated by almost every other player (even the Staydeads often possess lingering gang affiliations), they wage war upon the gang's stranglehold of NLACakaNM, donning suits and sunglasses in their crusade against gang filth. Often chided as "janitors" or "shills", Slimecorp employees' job is to clean the city of graffiti and gang members.

Perks of the job include; free food, weapons, and a reasonable salary. All this in exchange for your eternal soul and the hatred of your gangland peers. !enlist today!

!enlist never, actually. After the Attack on Slimecorp, the Slimecorp Security Force were wiped out and are no longer a playable faction.

Gang Warfare
While traditionally the gang warfare of NLACakaNM boils down to sudden and explosive bouts between gang members leading to endless casualty, in recent times the gangs have taken to other means to show their superiority. From amassing slime for their leaders to fight with, or laying claim to the districts of the city to show dominance, war has truly changed.

Kingpin Slime
Kingpin Slime is a stockpile of slime hoarded by either gang for the use of their leader, gathered through the killing of opposing gang members, capturing districts on the map, or a variety of other methods. For a live look at the slime of the kingpins as well as the territory currently controlled by each gang, check krakissi.net's map. The measure of a Kingpin's Slime is a good indication of which gang is currently in the lead, but sometimes a gang may focus instead on another form of dick-measuring: Territory Control.

Territory Control
The name of the Territory Control  game is sitting in a given district waiting for it to turn your color while killing any members of the opposing gang who try to jump you. Ownership is constantly shifting, but sometimes a gang may manage to paint the whole map in which case they will surely let everyone know.
