Alright guys, here's another top12. Feel free to debate
Top 12 Alliances of Actium
1. Bada Bing- Western front spans two oceans, for all intensive purposes the best positioning in the world is locked up. Impending conflicts will not come close to threatening the core of their alliance. =WW front runners
2. Bundle of Sticks - Have encroached upon the Supers and SIN territory with relative ease. Hardly any weak links in their chain of players, though the layout of their core could pose serious problems for them in the future. Aggressive players will plug enough holes. =WW front runners
3. Band of Brothers- Northeast core is packed plus they have had success against Northwestern alliances. Lack of expansion into other oceans keeps them from being higher. =WW front runners
4. Boondock Saints - Tough call here, they are capable of holding their own, yet do not have a core locked down. Diplomacy might be the best option. No lack of courage, however, as they have their hand firmly placed in BoB's cookie jar. =swim
5. Super Duper - Was able to pilferage solid players from the beaten on ME/MH allainces. Unfortunate positioning, their player quality suggest they can run a successful long-game plan. Will enemies on several fronts prevent them? =float
6. Deadly When Sober - See 4. They will have a lot to say on how the Northern front shakes out. =swim
7. Pile of Stones - See 2. Battle tested, remains to be seen if long-term plans will shake out. o55 may be tilting their way. =swim
8. The Somewhat Few - I have concerns about BoS eventually turning their eyes on them, however, their position may be enough to escape the fire. The alliances to their north and south are not major threats. =float
9. Bada Bang - No comment
10. Super Dupers - See 5. Fighting hard, could eventually help turn the tides of o55 =float
11. Minions - Interchangeable with Outraged on your Behalf, they are a mirror of the neighbors to their far south. They're smaller, but have found more fights. =floating
12. The Bish - Have excellent players but they are in a melting pot. May have to make a move soon or face defeat. =sinking
