There are many ways to connect to Achaea. There is, of course, the Telnet application that comes with most operating systems by default, but that is a poor way to experience the vibrance of the realms. We supply two official clients: one that can be reached via the Play Now button at [http://www.achaea.com achaea.com] (which uses Flash), or a client called [http://www.achaea.com/nexus/play.php Nexus] which is written in Java. Both are very similar on the surface, but for the purposes of this guide, we will assume you are using Nexus. When Nexus has loaded up, it offers you a choice between logging into an existing character or creating a new one. We'll cover character creation later in the guide, so for now let's say you've logged in. You can always re-read this section when you've made a character, after all!
