Update:

Since the last time you have read the papers,certain rumors became true."The praetorian Guard" and "Evolution" merged,Thus making EVO's alliance cap now 450.TPG top players moved over to EVO and the others are still in TPG but they are all still apart of Evo.
In other news,wars are still continuing but i hear that a lot of twists are going to happen in some very soon.Hear rumors on core oceans turning their attention to rims etc.Only time will tell.
Speaking about time keep those eyes on the WW countdown,just 11 months away.


Rim Update

Doing an review on the rim oceans that were not covered on my ocean analysis this week.
**Note:Would include maps,but the image cap is 21.So sorry about that.


1.Ocean 51

Top 3 Alliances:
1.Devastators|81,032 Points
2.The Phoenix Resistance|46,363 Points
3.House of hades|16,696 Points

Devastators take this ocean hands down!No real threat.The rank 2 alliance top player is not even conquest ready.The alliance does not have a chance in this world but will still be in control of O51.

2.Ocean 32

Top 3 Alliances:
1.DARK WATERS|177,575 Points
2.World breakers Legion|45,353 Points
3.Underworld Rising|28,880 Points

In this ocean although "DARK WATERS" are leading the rank 2 alliance,world breakers legion is on top.Better BP and also players with conquest capability.

3.Ocean 42

Top 3 Alliances:
1.World breakers Legion|386,880 Points
2.Beers And Brawlers|172,027 Points
3.shadows|131,528 Points

Will let the interviews speak for this ocean

1.Give us a brief introduction about World breakers Legion.
salamis21 said:
i started this alliance as "social experiment" and we suddenly got serious, This is the 1st world this alliance has set foot on and probably the last because we are a group of casual players that are trying to get by.

2.Tell us a bit about how things in your alliance is done and about the experience about your leaders.
salamis21 said:
The ways we do things is like the laconic times the leaders give orders and the rest follow them. As for my generals.. well Scotticus32 is a GOD and keeps this alliance organized, the rest jsut get by.

3.How are things in O42?Any wars?
salamis21 said:
O42 is a mess,i wish someone could get OCEANS VETERANS away , but that aint happening.

4.Who do you see as threats to your alliance in that ocean?Is your alliance engaged in any wars?
salamis21 said:
we do have some small skirmishes here and there but nothing major.

5.Your thoughts about this world and how you may think your alliance has a chance.
salamis21 said:
This world will end up either in Avernus or OCEANS VETERANS, as for my allaince... yeah nada not a chance. i luv my bros but it aint happening.

Responded in a paragraph to all my questions;
jackaroo3699 said:
So I am what we over here call the Master Drunkard (founder). As you may tell we are all about beer and having some good fights. This is the first Beers And Brawlers but we hope to go into other worlds too.
My alliance has only one founder, but we have a six man council made up of our officers. Before I do anything major I run it by them to see what they think. Most of the time we vote on it. Most of my officers have a fair amount of experience. I myself started way back in Alpha, around 4 years ago. Most of the officers have around a years experience at least, which has proven very helpful.
Not much has really happened in our ocean as of yet, a few scraps with many minor alliances for a bit of fun but nothing more. World breakers Legion are throwing their weight around with occasional attacks but we have not lost a city to them (ignoring a former inactive member losing his). As for threats, well World breakers Legion could become a problem for us in the coming weeks. We are second to them in our ocean but we have a few strong pacts with similar sized alliances. I believe my alliance has a good chance at going far in this world. We are the underdogs as most of us have started pretty late in the world. Either way we will keep fighting and drinking to the very end!

4.Ocean 52

Top 3 Alliances:
1.Rim Noobs|1,516,261 Points
2.Academy of soldiers|373,705 Points
3.Avernus|196,462 Points

1.Give us a brief introduction about rim Noobs.
Rumpelstiltskin88 said:
We are a team of people who play this game for ages now.Most of us grown tired of core play so we started here late in order to get some rest.My app alarm hasnt sounded yet so i cant complain :)

2.Tell us a bit about how things in your alliance is done and about the experience about your leaders.
Rumpelstiltskin88 said:
Well,i could waste time by telling you what worlds and what teams we have been in,but i think our names speak enough for themselves.It is likely most of the people know who we are already :)

3.How are things in O52?Any wars?
Rumpelstiltskin88 said:
No wars,its just the time needed for our small group to open slots and eat up everyone else there.

4.Who do you see as threats to your alliance in that ocean?Are you guys involved in any wars?
Rumpelstiltskin88 said:
Avernus is only real threat but mainly cause they(for some reason completely unknown to me) decided to take in 140 farms and make them their academy.That is such a silly decision i cant even begin to relate to it.

5.Your thoughts about this world and how you may think your alliance has a chance.
Rumpelstiltskin88 said:
Well,after 4 years of Grepo i can honestly say i like this settings the best.Conquest 2/2 is my favorite,i hate alliance cap of 150 thou,but not everything can be perfect.About are chances,if you are talking about WWs,note we have 40 members,not likely we can outsim anyone for a win :) We will however stay here a while and see how it goes.

6.Anything else you might want to add?
Rumpelstiltskin88 said:
Not really,world too young to have any comments.

5.Ocean 62

Top 3 Alliances:
1.Play For Keeps|917,076 Points
2.420 War Wombats|117,256 Points
3.Academy of soldiers 2|117,202 Points

1.Give us a brief introduction about Play For Keeps.
Unclebuck said:
PFK has been around in Grepolis for a few years. We are an experienced band of players, friends, and family who have been playing this game since it started.

2.Tell us a bit about how things in your alliance is done and about the experience about your leaders.
Unclebuck said:
We are a very aggressive experienced alliance, but also a casual group of friends if that makes sense. There are a lot of new friends on this server, however at the core is still those who have been playing together and in PFK for a long time.

3.How are things in O62?Any wars?
Unclebuck said:
Our enemy "Hades Angels" were recruited by Avernus and put into their academy Academy of soldiers. AV has repeatedly threatened us not to keep attacking "them" or that they would make their "threats" come true. Well, look at grepostats....the score is somewhere around 26-0 between our AoS and AV takes. Looks like they threatened the wrong alliance
.

4.Who do you see as threats to your alliance in that ocean?-Mortis- surely must be a threat?
Unclebuck said:
Mortis has no desire to push into our ocean, and we have no desire to be in O63.

5.Your thoughts about this world and how you may think your alliance has a chance.
Unclebuck said:
PFK has dominated on every world we have played. We never have more then 35-45 members no matter the alliance cap. We regularly have taken on alliances 2-3 times our size and always win......when it comes to experienced and talented players, we have the best I have ever played with on any world.

6.Anything else you might want to add?
Unclebuck said:
Thanks for your time, and noticing us here out in the rim :)

Avernus are a bunch of hard working team players, we stand together as a team and is a great bunch of people

2.Tell us a bit about how things in your alliance is done and about the experience about your leaders.
Tacion said:
Diplo is run by me, as you probably know and even though we dont all have crowns there are many crowns and many people with great plans that should have had crowns long ago, the combined experience does not stand back for any other alliance

3.How are things in O53?Any wars?
Tacion said:
yes the rims are a bit of a headache but we basically have them surrounded now and we only commit a small percentage of our players against them as soon if we feel some pressure we might commit a few extra players, one comment there is all respect to player vevik he is a great player with good tactics and a honorable and good opponent and without him rims would have faded away long time ago

4.Who do you see as threats to your alliance in that ocean?Rim Noobs surely must be a threat?
Tacion said:
currently we have all under control

5.Your thoughts about this world and how you may think your alliance has a chance.
Tacion said:
i love this fast world for people like me on 24/7 it is great 9 not like those slow boring worlds) things change fast units build fast and adrenalin keeps us all awake - to soon to say about chance , to many variables at the moment, we have solid pacts and are hoping to play till world end with them

KublaiKhan1 said:
We have no threats in 63 we can`t handle

5.Your thoughts about this world and how you may think your alliance has a chance.
KublaiKhan1 said:
As usual some of the MRA will survieve soly on numbers not by skills, Epic 1-2-3, Epic riots etc are an good example trying to get most of the world to be their friends and accepting everything with a puls as members.
Unfortunately Grepolis have the flaw that it is to expensive for skilled players to expand unlike every other MMO in terms of Cultural points and that saves them, if skilled players could get cultural points in a pace like Kings Age, Tribal Wars etc all the MRA would be gone in a very short period of time.

6.Anything else you might want to add?

Weekly Article~World Wonders

Okay so normally no one would really talk about World Wonders so early.But if you guys do keep an eye on that countdown for wonders you will notice that within about 2 weeks the count when from 13 months to 11.That's how fast WW's are approaching on this world.

At this rate we would be at wonders in about 6-7 months tops. You might not agree with me now but just wait a couple more months and you shall see. With the adding of hero world features to all worlds the speeds of the worlds have increased and i'm not talking about the game speed but the wonder speed.Normally when WW's arrive the world has 3-4 active top alliances,around 2000 players tops i would guess,but in En80's case it would be totally different.Most of the top 12 alliances and other noobish ones too will be there and this world will end soon.Now if the devs actually stop thinking about just the cash they make and put that time they spend on that to a WW revamp it would be all different.
For those who are expecting last years WW revamp to come out this year atleast,trust me it will not happen.According to the devs " We have been working on this matter every week, but this is a really complex and big change that we are dealing with extra care!"
So i doubt it would come out this year either.
The devs got plenty time to think about gold trading and instant buy etc,I wonder whether they actually think about how much of a "BI CHANGE" those will do to the game.Oh well,my point being no WW revamp this year either
So those who are yelling for a world to be relesed,don't bother like EN80 in a matter of 7-8 months of the start of the world it will be over.

I will stop doing issues weekly and try doing 1 every 2 weeks from now on.
I'm really sorry about this weeks issue,i know it sucks.I am not happy with it at all.No stats at all,but seriously my time is limited to writing papers now,got a lot to do with the alliance in game and then studies as well.
So once again i'm sorry,if anyone wants to take voer PM and i'll show you the ropes.

you may have to reconsider your predictions on O51 lol. The lessons from the rim crew have landed there o_O

I think Druvi needs to sit down and do another assessment. Venom and Ruse players just poo at me when I do mine, so Druvi needs to do a Neutral version, even if I have been fair and balanced... What about those Rim Noobs... Not so nooby, cept they gained quite a bit against us without people being brought into our way of doing things... expect that to change shortly...

I don't play here so Im considered neutral and OV is losing to Ruse and Venom. You have not been fair and balanced at all.
Also Druvi is working on a new issue.
