Play as Delaware
Delaware is small coastal state, corporate charters, chemical industry. Inside the United States Coalition it's a sovereign, fully AI-run country with its own treasury, army and war record. You don't take it over — you claim one of its 6 cities as your home state and grow your own nation from there.

Hiring Delaware in a war
The coalition operates on its own. When you're at war you can open the Coalition War Aid panel and pay Delaware in SFC dollars to commit its forces to your side. It will only accept if it's currently aiding 3 or fewer wars — past that, its army is spoken for and you'll need another backer.
FAQ
Will Delaware fight for me?
For a price. Pay Delaware in SFC dollars during a war and its AI forces commit to your side, provided it's currently backing 3 wars or fewer. Past that its army is already spoken for.
How much does Delaware's war aid cost?
The price scales with its military strength, so a heavily-armed coalition country charges more than a small one. You'll see the exact figure and its current aid load in the Coalition War Aid panel during any active war.
Who are Delaware's neighbours in the coalition?
In the Northeast Bloc bloc it sits alongside Connecticut, Maine and Maryland. Those are the AI countries whose posture you'll feel first — in trade prices, in border tension, and in who's available to hire when a war starts.
Which city should I claim in Delaware?
Any of the 6 — Rehoboth Beach, Middletown and Newark among them. Each has its own page and drops your capital on that city's real coordinates, so the choice is about who your neighbours are.
Does joining Delaware lock me into the coalition?
Your home state anchors your capital inside Delaware, but your diplomacy stays your own. You can ally with world nations outside the United States Coalition and still hire coalition armies when it suits you.
