Hello Athenians, and welcome to what is the 4th issue of Athens Weekly Newspaper.
Firstly, my apologies for the delay in this issue. I've been away, but I'm back now.
We'll start today's issue with the interviews. This week I've secured 2 interviews, with RogueRider of Rogue and Gumbles of SunTzu. Rogue and SunTzu are up and coming, promising alliances in Athens.

Now on to our featured news stories!
Two for Flinching Takes Top Spot
Two for Flinching are now officially number one in Athens. They've secured a lead of around 40k over Nightmares of Elysium after NmE had one of their kicking sessions. They are, however, 1k behind NmE in average points and 70k behind in ABP. There appear to have been a few border skirmishes between the two alliances, with 24F taking 3 cities from NmE, but NmE taking none. This will be an interesting piece of news to follow, and I'll keep you all updated.

Rogue Secures Top 12 Position
Rogue, an alliance that joined Athens late has now entered the top 12. They were tipped to be a good bunch by some forumers, notably King Beast. It's my belief that they have come over from world Kappa, but please correct me if I'm wrong. They clearly have big ambitions, one of their leaders see's them in the top 7 in one month, and they are yet to lose a city. I'll be keeping a close eye on them, and keep you updated.

Why did you start Rogue?
Rogue is a family and friends alliance that has been banging around games like Grepo for years. I am a relatively new comer to Rogue that joined them in November 2010 in Kappa and rose through the ranks. I am now one of the founders in Athens. We moved to Athens from Kappa after it was clear that there would never be an end game in Kappa and we got board. We were #2 in Kappa when we left.
Are you pleased with your progress so far?
Yes and no. Starting with one city after running over 100 cities is quite an adjustment. I am now up to 3 cities but would have liked to be 4 or more a week ago.
My point rank is currently higher then my ABP rank with does not sit well with me. I need to kill more enemy troops.
Where do you see your alliance in 1 month?
Top 7. We are currently in the top 12 and we continue to grow.
Which alliance are you most impressed with in Athens so far?
I don't know if I really have a good impression of any alliance yet. I know there are a couple of alliances in the top 12 that I am totally unimpressed with due to some really really poor coordination and planning but I will not name any names as they should know who they are.

Why did you form your alliance?
The ultimate challenge, for me, was to grow an Alliance unaided and independantly from a single city state to ruler of Athens.
Are you happy with your progress so far?
Extremely. The Gods smile upon SunTzu guiding fantastic members to join our family as we grow & expand.
You've taken a few cities from NmE. Do you see this developing into a conflict?
What will be, will be........we anticipate & look forward to any conflict with an Alliance whose sole strategy is purely strength in numbers
