New Top 12....haven't seen one in 3 years so why not?
Imperial Order-took some ST1 members this past week. They're now losing lots of cities to Triad and DF, although most of them I'm willing to bet are in O35. They're slowing down against Hydra, only taking a handful in the past week, and they've lost a couple. IO is losing ground, but they still have some power left. -Float
Triad-Still the strongest alliance around, and atm they're not receiving much resistance from IO. They'll probably make WW unless something vast and unforeseen happens. -Swim
Hydra-Lots of success against Slaughter House, and they've even managed to take a couple of cities from IO. A week ago I would've had these guys sinking, but now I'm not so sure. Prom has kept up some pressure, but now they have two other wars to keep them busy. -Float
Drunken Farmers-These guys are doing quite well right now. They're owning IO in O35 (totally foreseen). I'm interested to see if they will interfere with the war shaping up to their East, but right now I think they're just interested in smashing IO. -Swim
Prometheus-Still here, and still fighting. They're fighting 3 wars and winning in all of them. Killing EoD 17-4, and dominating Hydra 63-29, and a few cities taken from Loose Cannons. They're doing very well in these wars, and they should swim. -Swim
Avernus-Are now after Nameless, and last I checked the score was 11-4. It's still a new war though, let's see how this turns out. I'll bet money Avernus will win but if DF decides to flex some muscles than it would change the equations significantly. -Float
Rhinovirus-Merged recently with Kingdom of the North, and they're 4th in terms of conquered cities in the past week. No longer stuck between IO and Triad, they have more options available to them. I'm not sure I can give them a swim but I'll definitely give them a chance to do something to sway my opinion. -Float
Nameless Faction-Now at war with Avernus, they've conscripted Peaky Blinders to become their allies. I'm not quite sure these guys will hold against Avernus, but they won't fall immediately...they can just feed off of Slaughter House. Therefore, float. -Float
Elements of Destruction-These guys were quick to get up here to 9th but they're losing lots of cities to Prom. It'll be interesting to see if they can mount a credible defense against Prom. As of now they haven't, and though they're having success against Slaughter House, I don't think it'll be enough for these guys. -Sink
Dont Panic-My alliance so won't give it a rating although I will mention that we are third in city growth over the past week.
Peaky Blinders-A new addition to the top 12. They're fighting Avernus and losing atm. They do have reasonable growth, and the score between them and Avernus is extremely small. Maybe they'll surprise me, and I'll give them a chance to do so. -Float
Slaughter House-Sinking like a rock, I think this will be the last Top 12 mentioning them.
