Thanks for the tip on Niefelheim. This should get me familiar with the interface and general gameplay. Any other nations that are good for newcomers and SP... I mean nations that I could get start learning how to devise strategies and create competitive pretenders for MP?

Keep in mind that I am not ready to hop into MP just yet, but I do want to be able to decipher the other helpful posts like the nation guides and things like E9F7W5D6 and things like that. Thanks again.
