| | Hellow power ranking fans! We're back for another fun filled episode of 'who's got the biggest spears in Zancle!', also known as the famous ZPR. In this weeks edition, we have some big news on the playing field as the Drunken Farmers, on the brink of absolute victory after smashing Noble Intentions into collapse, is ROBBED of their spoils by Imperial Order, who apparently isn't at war with enough people at the moment and is looking for another. It's a head scratcher of a move for sure, as those players aren't going to magically be different now that they have a IO tag on their name. More on that in the ratings. And off we go! |
1st |
| Alliance: Triad
Current World Rank: 1 Current BP Rank: 1 Conquests last 7 days: 54 Inactives: (triad does not publish inactive information)
Triad finds themselves suddenly surrounded on 3 sides by Imperial Order. However, the threat the red cities in O35 present Triad isn't viewed as being any different than when those cities were named 'Noble Intentions'. However, a destabilized border ocean is still a situation which needs to be watched. |
2nd |
| Alliance: Imperial Order
Current World Rank: 2 Current BP Rank: 2 Conquests last 7 days: 23 Inactives: 13
I'm sure the ZPR isn't the only one scratching their heads at IO's decision to mass invite everyone from Noble Intentions when word got out they were crashing. And the end result, still second place in points, a minor bump in total BP, and a huge problem with internal inactives that is eating up much of IO's attention. And now that a war with Drunken Farmers is all but inevitable, IO may have just fatally spread themselves thin for no real benefit. |
3rd |
| Alliance: Hydra
Current World Rank: 3 Current BP Rank: 3 Conquests last 7 days: 25 Inactives: 27
IO isn't the only alliance having a bad problem with internal inactives. With 27 players hitting the ZPR inactive mark (we won't tell you what that is, but it's forgiving) Hydra needs to possibly look into some austerity measures. We could see a change in the top 3 next ZPR if things don't get sorted out. |
4th |
| Alliance: Drunken Farmers
Current World Rank: 4 Current BP Rank: 7 Conquests last 7 days: 46 Inactives: 12
The Drunken Farmers get the credit for killing Noble Intentions, but IO came in and stole the spoils. No one suspects that the Farmers will suffer this kind of outrage lightly, and war is coming to O35. However, the change of alliance tag doesn't change the targets, and DF was doing just fine here before and we suspect they will continue to. All this really does is add another war front to IO, and not one they are set up to win. DF is going to see some movement. |
5th |
| Alliance: Prometheus
Current World Rank: 5 Current BP Rank: 5 Conquests last 7 days: 19 Inactives: 16
Prometheus is having some moderate success in their wars with Hydra and Elements of Destruction which keeps them firmly in 5th in the ZPR. Their border alliance to the south is occupied at the moment so now might be the time to make a game changing move. Diplomacy be dashed! |
6th |
| Alliance: Seal Team One
Current World Rank: 6 Current BP Rank: 4 Conquests last 7 days: 10 Inactives: 12
After absorbing the detrius of the Apostles, STO has stabilized some but are just standing pat at the moment. 10 conquests in a week isn't going to advance you forward. |
7th |
| Alliance: Avernus
Current World Rank:7 Current BP Rank: 8 Conquests last 7 days: 15 Inactives: 13
How do you get culture points when you are pacted with everyone you could possibly get battle points from? This is a question Avernus needs to answer. Losing 13 players last week is a sign of a bored alliance. Fighting is excitement. That's how you fix the problem. |
8th |
| Alliance: Nameless Faction
Current World Rank: 8 Current BP Rank: 10 Conquests last 7 days: 12 Inactives: 21
Nameless seems to be having their way with Slaughter House right now with a 30-8 advantage in their war. If they committ, it's a war like that, frosted with victories, is what can grow an alliance from a player to a power. |
9th |
| Alliance: Rhinovirus
Current World Rank: 9 Current BP Rank: 14 Conquests last 7 days: 10 Inactives: 14
Stuck in an unfortunate location, Rhinovirus has the inevitable position of being Switzerland this world. While there are attacks here and there, for the most part, Rhino is maintaining. No major changes in personnel or points. Don't Panic is rapidly moving up and could take Rhino's spot next ZPR if they don't start bathing their hoplights in blood. |
10th |
| Alliance: Slaughter House
Current World Rank: 11 Current BP Rank: 9 Conquests last 7 days: -2 Inactives: 16
Losing badly in their war with The Nameless Faction, I suspect they will tumble down the rankings next ZPR as Don't Panic moves up. 6 digit growth last week puts them dead last in the advancement category, with STO being only slightly ahead. Pro-Tip: The snail never wins the race. Never. This isn't fairy tale land.3216686 in points. 1880536 in BP |
11th |
| Alliance: Don't Panic
Current World Rank: 10 Current BP Rank: 16 Conquests last 7 days: 37 Inactives: 19
New to the ZPR (thanks to our expanded ranking system) they most likely would have moved into the top 10 by the next ZPR anyway. They grew by 10%! 10 percent. Not a small number when you look at power, which we do. Oh boy, do we love power. Don't Panic is starting to feel some. Let's see what they do. 3247480 in points. 814620 in BP |
12th |
| Alliance: Elements of Destruction
Current World Rank: 12 Current BP Rank: 15 Conquests last 7 days: 21 Inactives: 7
Another alliance new to the ZPR, and also another alliance that added 10% to their overall total. All doing this while losing 10 players. Although rumors say their skirmish with Promtheus isn't going well for them, they have found a way to move forward. A lot can change in 2 weeks, let's see what they do. 2584427 in points. 868193 in BP |
