Tehmina Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) I joined CN in Dec 2010. Although I have heard numerous tales of the vicious NPO, and their contributions to world, I never experienced it.... so I will state my ranks in order of importance through my experience. 1. MK 2.

Overlord Shinnra Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 If we are going the ex-alliance route (which I don't agree with) I think you'd find ODN has equal or more ex-members out there in other alliances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magicninja Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 GATO only had any real juice really really early on. As the first alliance, and as a major early player in the political realm (albeit ultimately on the losing end) I would have to say GATO played some role in shaping how the game came to be played over the first half of existence. That said, in terms of raw political power over the span of nearly a decade....GATO doesn't compare to what the Orders built, what MK was able to accomplish in their time, or even what DBDC is doing now. Post GWIII, and indeed post 1V, GATO hasn't been very interested in playing that part. Good to know we still got name recognition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IYIyTh Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) It would be interesting to see what a yearly breakout top 5 would look like. 6 month periods early in the game have about as much intrigue as we see in a year or two now. Some alliances have made it into the top 5 certain years, few have stayed consecutively. Even Pacifica fell out for a time.

elespectador Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 NPO, MK & NpO, everybody knows why. 4. CCC - Because they protect us from evil ISIS. 5. Grey Council - Because they exercise their right to choose their own color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 NPO, MK, The Citadel (Bloc)TOP was very comfortable being part of Q & the status quo, but with most of Citadel eventually opposed to Q; I think it created an interesting dynamic. I don't think alliances who join the herd and become just part of whatever the current hegemony is really qualify as having a huge impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Uruk Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 The Citadel (Bloc)Probably the best alliance there ever was, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Bromeini Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 DBDC is basically just the continuation of MK, those who decided they didn't want to leave the game. Same spirit, many of the same people etc. Don't think they belong on any of these lists though. 1. MK 2. NPO 3.TOP 4. NpO 5. LUE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Bromeini Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Yeah maybe not.http://youtu.be/4QRgKbDsVGU That's kind of blatantly false. Many of the same members, ex-MK peeps in leadership, and the exact same DH antics. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad thing. DH was a thing of beauty and CN effectively ceased to exist in the way it once did after it departed from the earth. Don't lie, dawg. Embrace it.

I was a fan of MK while they existed, but that doesn't make 3 out of 25 a "many", given we have more from Non Grata and Umbrella than actual MK. We are in the second coming of Doom, and the tactics may have a semblance, but it's a whole different approach to power and influence. As far as global and historical mpact, I'm not sure DBDC qualifies, but the fact that 100% of alliances have to plan wars around how they would interact with DBDC speaks volumes.

Grossman Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) NPO- Most power. GPA- Most peace. FAN- Most fight. MK- Most fun. VE- Most green. And apologies for grave-digging this! Edited April 2, 2015 by Grossman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opethian the Second Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I have been absent for a very long time now, so I am quite a bit behind in terms of knowing "who's who" here lately, but I'd assess it as follows (note: not ranking numerically, just listing who I think had the greatest impact on the game) I think the "big two" HAVE the be NPO and LUE. That's the rivalry that basically set the standard for the politics of this game. Of course the Mushroom Kingdom and NpO are basically subsets/take-offs of these two powers, but both ultimately went in their own directions and had a huge impact on the game. Vox Populi was the last real world mover I recall before going into my deep spirit-sleep. I feel like I need to do a lot of catching up now.

necAnt Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) As i just came back recently to planet Bob, excuse me, if i miss some "new" alliances so in no particular Order for me: 1.

General Gorgoth Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 I may not be well versed in the way of CN too well but from what I gather in recent history it would have to be. 1. NPO 2. GPA 3.NpO 4.IRON 5.MI6 (I'm British so this one's probably biased) 6. WFF (lol, have to be biased and add my own one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Oskar Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 I think aNiMaLz is the alliance that affected the politics the most. Think about it we are a alliance of 21 nations who average around 2500 - 3000 strength we raid big alliances tech farms and they can't do a thing about it, we Embarrassed Doom Squad, Goons and many more. Also big alliances try to scrum up treaty’s and sanctions for and against us, who else has this much influence? All I have to say is if you don't like us attacks us (If you can) and we will destroy anyone you send.
