Top 12 weekly update
It's time for my weekly update. The update looks at how well each alliance has been doing, since my last update (1 week ago). Thanks to information provided from Diane of Simi I have this week included war / allied status for each alliance.
Major changes:
New: Dovahkiin Rising, The Deadly Angels
Out: No.BS (merged with OoC), Dark Riders (merged with The Myrmidons and the new merged alliance is now called Gods of War)
General: A lot of mergers and members leaving disbanding alliances making the numbers not as good as earlier.
Table with detailed numbers over the weekly changes
Table with rank focus
Krypteia
Allies: Boatmen of STYX
War against: OV, Gods of War, Vengeance, TDA and GLoC
No other alliance comes close to Krypteia. They grow faster, The most aggressive alliance and have a very strong leadership.
Gods of War
Allies: The Bish and The Deadly Angels
War against: Krypteia and OoC
Dark Riders merged into The Myrmidons this week and they changed their name. The alliance have had serious leadership problems over a long time now, but it appears they're trying to stabilize their alliance by this merger. With that said it's unlikely that two simmer alliances can go together and form a new good one.
Global Legion Of Chaos
Allies:OCEANS VETERANS and The Bish
War against:Krypteia, Boatmen of STYX and Order of Chaos
Have been recruiting active players from the disbanding alliances Phoenix and Boatmen of STYX. Will be interesting to see, if they manage to fight Krypteia and OoC and maintain their earlier strong growth. Next week will be interesting.
Order of Chaos
Allies:
War against:Gods of War, The Bish and GLoC
Merged With No.BS, which looks like a good strategic decision. Both alliances had strong leaders and good players and it will be interesting to see if they manage to organize themselves in a way that can handle double the amount of players.
The Bish
Allies: Gods of War, and Oceans Kingdom
War against:Order of Chaos
Once again a bad week for The Bish. Weak leadership and low average ABP.
Ocean Veterans
Allies:Vengeance, GLoC, TDA, Dovahkiin Rising and Gods of War
War against:Krypteia
High overall growth which comes from recruitment of disbanding alliances. Keeps getting hammered by Krypteia, but it seems like their leadership manage to keep the spirit up which is a sign of good leadership.
Ocean Kingdom
Allies:
War against:
Recently recruited what was left of Alpha Wolves which seems to leave them with no obvious wars at the moment.
Band of the Red Hand
Allies:Vengeance and OV
War against:
Similar to earlier weeks this alliance keeps on growing at a decent speed (It's not easy to see because of the high amount of new members into the other alliances). The alliance can't keep on fighting smaller alliance forever, so we might see them deciding to fight another top12 alliance in the near future.
Vengeance
Allies:OV, TDA, BotRH
War against:Krypteia
Impressive little alliance, who would definitely be much bigger, if they were located elsewhere. At its current state it's very unlikely they will have much higher growth than what they currently have. They're only fighting one alliance and have a pact, naps or close bounds to all other nearby alliances.
Boatmen of Styx
Allies:Krypteia
War against:GLoC
The Alliance still have huge problems and their few remaining active players is looking for alternative alliances. Just a matter of time before they dissolve.
Dovahkiin Rising
Allies:
War against:
New small alliance with experienced players. We have to wait and see how they develop.
The Deadly Angels
Allies:Gods of War, Vengeance, OV
War against:Krypteia
A small alliance composed by newbs that has been around for a while. Even though they have been hammered for quite some time now, they're still around and not fleeing into VM which is good. With that said, the alliance probably have the weakest leadership in top12 which easily can be seen by counting how many oceans this alliance is present on (I can't see any other alliance with presence in more oceans than this one).
