This is my initial thoughts on the top 10 alliances, I am a tad bored.
The Musketeers
ABP rank: 1
DBP rank: 3
BP rank: 1
My first thoughts of these guys are they are here to stay. Very sharp blades coming out of BP and charging forward so a serious alliance. 80% of the alliance is tightly packed, however there's some strays that our a full ocean away, so it'll be interesting how they will support those guys when they need it.
Shares ocean with two smaller alliances, which brings an immediate risk as they both might pacted up and try to work together to take these guys down. Will be the first test of many, however I feel like they're will defiantly arise to the occasion.

Interesting alliance, pretty much the whole alliance is on 6-7 islands so I feel sorry for anyone who's on them islands! These guys look a strong - tight group. Be pretty tough to break down these guys down due to how closely packed they are. Only concern is that they are surrounded by
Friends/THE GOON which are both just tightly packed as they are. If they're pacted or not they'll eventually war and the best alliance comes out on top.
I do not think
THE GOON shouldn't be to much of an issue in my opinion, but we all love a good war and I liked to be proven wrong!

Jeez, what's happened? So far all the top 4 alliances have been relatively closely packed. Again closely packed like the rest, however really low DBP? Either people are afraid or there's no one in O55 to challange them? Either way they are finding cities to attack and kill.
The only real threat is
The Apocalypse which thinly surrounds them. I dont think these will be to much of an issue to handle.

Alpha-et-Omega

DBP rank: 1
BP rank: 2 +2
Finally! An alliance that isn't packed closely, which I personally feel is their downfall. Spread across two heavily contested oceans they might possibly be easy pickings as they're surround by 4+ alliances in the top 12. Which probably explains why they're #1 DBP.
I have nothing against these guys, however in their situation it's a slim chance that you'll be in top 10 the next time I do a top 10.

A tightly packed group, however abit high on the DBP? I presume
No Brakes have been targeting and clearing these guys out? I don't expect these guys just to take it. I think they'll come back with guns blazing. I hope so otherwise they won't stand a chance as they're in a heavily contested area.
O54 will either be
Friends or
No Brakes Who's it gonna be?

Mediocre clan, fairly spread. Almost surround
Killer Bees however, there is alot of distant between players which is one reason why I think these guys will lose against
Bees. Doing average across the bored according to BP and points. Won't easily be taken down I don't think. Another ocean were if they fail they won't survive!
Nothing else to say yet

Thor
ABP rank: 9 -2
DBP rank: 7
BP rank: 8 -1
Considering "Thor" is meant to be a god with a mighty hammer that smashes and crushes foes, all it seems is you guys brought you inflatable hammers. That's not gonna do much? If you're trying to use a powerful name atleast be man enough to be as powerful as your name sounds...
Anyway, fairly less contested ocean however two main enemies.
SPLIT ENZ/Assembled Irony. Without a doubt if you want to prove you guys are the mighty god of Thunder and Storms then you'll need to take these guys out. If you do O45 is pretty much yours until someone comes in. I hope you do well....

Afterlife

On the border for O54 and O55. Be interesting on where they want to head into or if they decide to fight on two fronts. I don't know why but I think these guys will be a pain for
Friends and
The Apocalypse.
Kinda reminds me of
Shadows Fall back in Nu. Obviously not as good or as big. However I think these are the dark horse of this world.

Well... Im not sure if they're still under BP? I hope so because that ABP is really bad for volume of members and points they have. If you're not under BP then I don't think you have much chance to go far. Seems like easy pickings for anyone in 45 and no real threat. Especially when there's 3 alliances in 45 that will end up fighting it out.

THE GOON
ABP rank: 13 -3
DBP rank: 21
BP rank: 13 -3
Seems like most are under BP so expected ranks for ABP/DBP/BP. Even so, i'm sorry to say I don't think you stand any chance at all. Very spread out apart from 2 islands and just gonna be easy pickings apart from those two core islands...
Prove me wrong.

NOTES
These are my opinions and mine alone. I did not intend to insult or hurt anyone. If I did so then you should grow up and realize it's a game and you should probably get out more. I also did not include any sister/academy alliances nor use DBP rank like I did ABP and BP as an alliance cannot change how much DBP they get realistically.
I hope this has been a good read.
Thankyou ~Your local jedi
