AlphaBeta sound like the best alliance in Alpha. I don't play Alpha so can somebody tell me a bit about them?
They're small in numbers (currently 8 members) focused primarily in ocean 43 but spread a bit to the east into 53.
The alliance is ranked at 16th with an average player point of 290k (almost triple the average points of any other major alliance including TW).
AlphaBeta's alliance BP is 619868, that means it averages out at 77.5k BP each, where as the #1 world Alpha alliance averages at 42.5k BP per player.
Their largest member has 40 cities and is ranked 4th largest in the world, only 3,000 points below Garyjoe's 493670.
My confrontation with them happened back when they only had 5 members, one of which (the smallest) wasn't very active in attacks.
They have reserved diplomacy to allow for rapid and aggressive expansion.
Although due to Js902's personal attachments to The Way Of The Fist, Fist have gained some protection from AlphaBeta but may act as a kind of cannon fodder if required.
I could go into detail about a few of their members but I'm sure I've said enough to get a response.
The most chatty of their alliance is Js902, give her mail sometime.
