UPDATE TIME!!!
It has been over a week now and some interesting stuff has gone down. Mainly, NBL disbanding and the new RNK rising up in their place. We also have a couple new entries into the top ten and I changed CSS colour to yellow as it seemed more appropiate.
TOP TEN RANKINGS
1 - Domination - (No movement)
2 - Recruited Noble Knights - (I giving a no movement here seeing as it is pretty much NBL)
3 - Kamikaze - (No movement)
4 - the red dragon - (No movement)
5 - Cavalheiros Sanguinarios - (No movement)
6 - Primo Victoria - (No Movement)
7 - Merkaba - (up one place)
8 - Second Time Around - (Up three Places - NEW ENTRY)
9 - Revolution - (No movement)
10 - Big Lebowski Tribesman - (Up one place - NEW ENTRY)
Two new entries, meaning we say goodbye to Brotherhood of tribesman and Sith Lords for now. Though yet another Tribesman tribe has entered anyway. How many of these guys are there?!?!? lol
GENERAL THOUGHTS
Merkaba get the tribe of the update on this occasion, only real tribe to have moved up positions without being a new entry. Thanks to wilo, we now know that MRK are at war with trd currently so they will have to fight hard to expand inwards. an alliance with REV would probably be good fro both tribes.
KKZ seem to be getting bigeer with every update and surround PV nicely. I doubt PV will go down without a good fight and I look forward to seeing this play out of the next few updates.
New guys, STA - seem to be a very small force on the southern rim. they literally seem to have come out of nowhere so not alot to be able to say about them yet. Same for BLT, though - as stated previously - another tribesman tribe. I'm starting to think there will always be another tribesman tribe!
CSS staying up there near the top. The first tribe in the top ten to not have more than 100 VP, there is a lot of work for any other 5-10 tribes to break the top 4 because of this. I'm really hoping CSS can manage this, though TRD have a lot more ground and are next on the top ten for CSS to move upwards.
RNK are - of course - the remnents of NBL. And boy does it show. with huge gaps in their once fully red territory, it will be difficult for them to win this fight without this new leadership totally turning the tribe around. Time will tell, but all it has really done is push DMN even further into the lead.
So... DMN... just look at all that territory, and with TRD and KKZ working alongside them, there really is no stopping them now. I read somewhere else the other day that 2100 victory points are required for the win so there is still a long way to go, but maybe it is just a case of how hard everyone else makes it for them to gain those precious VP now.
Failing all that... the next most interesting thing waiting to happen on this world is the breaking of the alliances between DMN, TRD and KKZ. Lets put it this way, if TRD and KKZ want any chance to win this world themselves, at some point they will have no choice but to take the fight to DMN. The longer it is before that happens, the harder it is going to be to topple such a well working tribe.
