Since our alliance is finally back into the top 12 here is my first top-12 so far on this server
1. Caustic Soda - Swim
Properly the strongest contender for the win. Experienced leadership with good relations to many on the server. They have a good position on the map and are cleaning up their neighborhood. So far (to my knowledge) they haven't fought any top 5 alliance yet so their big test may lie in front of them yet.
2. Show Me Your Noobies - Swim
Well not much to say other than they are an aggressive bunch - Big cudoes for not cuddling like most of the server
Like CS they have alot of experience in their ranks and have secured O54 as their base. Officially not doing wonders which is a shame for the competition of the game.
On the war front they are hitting the Bloods with good succes.
3. Written in Blood - Float
They count three alliances after taking in the former EiE. In my mind it was a mistake as they owned EiE's war with SMYN but their numbers are impressive. Their position is fragile with ongoing wars against SMYN and Noobs at the same time plus the neutral TiN-group to the west - Yeah i know they have diplomatic relations but this is Grepo and you never know
Like the rest of the top alliances their leadership is experienced but with that many members it takes some skills to keep everyone in line.
4. This is not a drill (TiN) - Swim
Dont know many in this group but apparently they are doing fine by securing their own area. Like CS they haven't fought any top alliance yet but perhaps this will go off at some point. They have their numbers but needs to make a move if they want the win in the end.
5. This is not a hammer - N/A
See number 4.
6. Caustic Juice - N/A
See number 1.
7. Noobs - Swim
I see many familiar faces in their ranks plus some from my former Berzerker-crew from the beginning of the server. Got to respect their way of playing so far. Aggressive in their persuit of expansion, picky with recruiting and a bit cocky towards their enemies
Currently fighting Bloods and with good succes.
Exciting to see how far they can take it.
8. Blood Ties - N/A
See number 3.
9. Slap. - Sink
Not many lost cities so far and are only placed no. 27 on the deff list so they haven't been tested yet - Perhaps a war with TiN in the future? A few well-known faces in their ranks... I dont think they would survive a big war though.
10. The Langolier Ones - Float
Have a good grab on O64 with only the Rim Lords as a real threat (if they can be considered that lol). Once this ocean is secured they have to choose which direction then - Which must be considered plague or kolera
11. Blood Pressure - N/A
See number 3.
12. The Resurrected - SWIM
Well my own alliance... As the name says = Back from the dead
After our relocation from O55/O65 and a big mistake merging into the former Enough we are now set up in O66 where we tend to stay till the end. We are aggressive as always so we'll see what the future brings.
Just to sum up the top 12... Where are the major wars lads??
