We often hear players say that size doesn't matter when it comes to an alliance but rather the ABP it produces. However, this was not true for The BP people who was made up by a small amount of players and yet was able to hold a top spot on the ABP ranks. This was also the case for their DBP as they were under constant fire from neighbor alliances and one of them was KRYPTEIA. HankSkorpio quitting was one of the major blows that led to their disbandment. Then the final blow came when Valkyre Stormbringer lost her cities and soon after the alliance disbanded. Some of them went inactive others got conquered and others joined Chill Pandas. Read more about it in the Interviews section.Lightning Warriors was another alliance that disbanded this past week. They had a "grand" idea plan for the world and directly aimed at Unwritten Symphony. Yes, they were planning to form a coalition against US. However, things did not went according to plan and the coalition never saw the light of day. The leaders of LW, who had planned the coalition were thinking of leaving the alliance, not every alliance in the coalition was happy to be told what they had to do, and US already knew what they were all planning. When the leaders left LW they disbanded the alliance and the coalition was dissolved. Read more in the Interviews section.
Another alliance that felt last week was PERFECT STORM 65 and the alliance responsible for their disbandment was Damage Incorporated who completely overpowered them. Other than a few alliances located in Ocean 65, DI owns 65 and so far they had done great with zero conquest loses.

Interviews
Unwritten SymphonyAre you at war with Global Legion of Chaos? If so, what caused it? If not, why not?
Well the only reason is that they stole the name, two friends of mine created the real order of chaos, then on every single world players are stealing the name.
Why give Bdizzle88's and other members' cities to KRYPTEIA rather than internalize them?
When The BP people joined, there was some unexpected inactivity that we were not aware of until it was too late, for example before you know it Bdizzle88 had VM activated and off for two days, there wasn't much to do to be honest, they were far from our core so no point in trying to break a siege that is 4 hours LS away while he is 1 hour bireme away form KRYPTEIA.
Were the former Lightning Warriors members invited or did they asked to join?
Well few days before LW disbanded, I got a tip that LW was organizing a major operation on us and trying to assemble a coalition of 12 alliance vs us. The day of the supposed ops on us, I got a message from one of their big players wanting an invite saying he got kicked with an argument with one of the leaders, then a few hours later I got about 6~7 invite message from other LW players asking to join as well. From what I realized is that the LW players and leaders had problems with each other, I wont get into the dirty details about what I heard, but what I do know is that their founder asked to join, and when I accepted he actually disbanded the alliance.
Do you make it a habit to steel leadership members from other alliances to further progress you cause without actually fighting or meeting them on the battlefield?
Of course, Don't you see how a weak alliance we are. In fairness, in most noobie alliances the leaders are generally the best players.

9th Circle of Hell
Who are you currently at war with?
We're not at war with anyone. We're simply taking over underutilized cities and islands so they can reach their full potential.
Your sister alliance, Dantes 9th Circle, is a bit far from your core, will the alliance be moving towards them or vice versa? How do you plan to keep them safe for the mean time?
Dante's 9th isn't having any problems in 66, but we do occasionally send them DVD's of the latest movies and boxes of Jaffa Cakes as they are hard to come by down under.
You have picked up several players from The Outcasts, were they invited or did they asked to join?
We have far more applications for membership than we can accommodate, so we can be very picky about who we admit. We knew a few of the Outcasts and were willing to take them in as we believe gaining an active player is more valuable than simply gaining a city. But getting in is much easier than staying in, as we have very tough membership rules.
Were you one of the alliances involved in the coalition against Unwritten Symphony?
Funny thing about that was we were added to the coalition's joint forum and no one had ever even asked me if we wanted to join. People immediately told us we were not allowed to conquer any non-US cities, which was a non-starter as we were conquering cities from two of the 20 or so alliances that we're pretending to be coalition members. We ignored them. Then we were told that Lightning Warriors would decide targets for every other alliance - another non-starter as we do not take direction from anyone. If that weren't enough to rile us, Lightning Warriors began attacking cities in our territory and even one of our players - not really a move gauged to obtain our cooperation. But the fundamental problem with the coalition was that it was assembled by an alliance that openly stated that it was running away to another ocean. The coalition was dysfunctional and served no common purpose, and what aims it did have were unrelated to my alliance's plans and goals. The final absurdity of the entire charade was that the very individual who was supposed to be selecting targets for the coalition was the same person who dissolved LW and switched to US. I can't help but laugh when I think of that.

Damage Incorporated
Who are you currently at war with?
Sadly, no one major right now. So far we've only engaged in two wars, and both have resulted in the destruction of the opposing alliance. Our most recent war was against the ocean 65 branch of Perfect Storm, which ended 14-0 in favor of us. With that being said though, hopefully we'll have a more worthy opponent within a week or two, so it should be interesting.
What is the plan for the future once you have complete control of Ocean 65?
Ideally, like any other rim alliance, we would like to push for the core, but unfortunately we have some agreements in place that restrict us. So, in answer to your question, we will probably be making a push for 64 or 75 before looking to the core.

Global Legion of Chaos
Are you at war with Unwritten Symphony? If so, what started?
Yeah we are at war with them. Started by me approaching Admiral Naji for a NAp when this world first got going, he stalled. Then 2 weeks later took one of our cities, when I asked him about it, he said it wasn't an act of war, its just that they conquer their neighbors regardless of the flag to which I responded that if any further attacks came our way we will see it as an act of war. So now we are at war.
How are your players holding up?
We are doing okay, we take off them about 2 cities a day, but they also manage to take a city a day off us, so were even stevens at the moment, but we are doing okay keeping them at bay, we have a pretty solid core.

Athenian Empire
What is your current status with 9th Circle of Hell? Are you at war with them?
We are not at war with either one. We have exchanged fire a few times with 9th Circle of Hell though.

The fall of The BP People
Interviews with former members
The BP people disbanded because we were 10 people vs 1000.
Leadership (Navie) was best, he made the right decisions but, unfortunately, he left the game.

HankSkorpio quit, Valkyrie stormbringer I believe was her name, lost a city so she quit. After that the smaller players started running for more secure alliances. There were about 10 of us left so we all came to our current alliance with Ax3l's help. I would have rated their leadership as "childish" or "selfish" come to mind. I would not in the future join an alliance they are in.
The fall of Lightning Warriors
Interviews with former members
The op was a complete fail from the beginning to be honest - it was planned poorly and way too early in advance. US obviously knew each of the targets and had them stacked and most of the alliances in the "coalition" were pretty incompetent to be fair and we didn't expect many if any of them to actually conquer any cities, me and Joe were talking it over on Skype for a few hours but we had both been wanting to go over anyway but were staying in LW for other reasons - Joe disbanded LW and we joined US - none of the other alliances then even launched attacks I don't think so it was over before it even began really, all talk and no substance.
I was part of Lightening Warriors, but when J xxx Joe XXX J left LW to join US, he dissolved the alliance, at the time we were preparing to launch an all out attack on US. We had a shared forum with every Alliance in the top 30 in ocean 55 and surrounding are pretty much, total of 15 alliances due to take out US in a scheduled all out attack to end them. But Joe dissolved the alliance 3 hours before we were due to launch attacks, Joe and Ubberskillz went and joined US, this isn't the first time this has happened. The BP people leadership also ran and joined US. Once I would say is possibly coincidence, twice in a short period, I find that unlikely. Specially when we took our ex team mates out to make sure that US could not benefit from them joining what so ever.
