Okay you guys made me do homework after a great Halloween Party. The PnP (Politics and Propaganda for those that don't know) on this forum has gone dead.
1 Jäger
Okay so you are Rank #1 and have been for awhile. Seems your war targets have focused more on your ally ReHab who has dropped in Rank by a lot and will probably be gone in the next two weeks . Not a bad thing for Jager, for now as they take some villages and might I say not many TDA and Se7en/SUBV villages. Once Rehab is gone will the tides turn on Jager? Doesn't seem they did much to support their Ally so I am not sure they will get another with such great losses taken by Rehab, unless F! steps into those shoes. (Gratz on the small cluster of SUBV villages recently taken)
Jager does still seem more interested in taking Barbs and other small tribes rather than who they are at war with. So are they really at war or just toying with their enemy? I would have expected much more progress on Se7en after several weeks if they took the war seriously. They may want to curtail the amount of barbs taken by their members those nobles could be used to take more war targets.
Also you kicked a player because they were being eaten by a new and upcoming tribe tribe? Just curious on this one more than anything. You guys do eat your own inactive players for the most part this one seemed to be the exception. Nothing wrong with eating your own if they don't pull their weight just be sure to divvy them up with your more active members and maybe bring some ppl from the back lines to the front lines.

Rank 2 tribe they have a nice spread and cluster. They had Jagger declare on them. I am assuming this is because the Jager Duke took rumors to be Truth from the PnP i.e. externals. They seem to be focused on eating ReHab more than Jager. Will they go after F! as well? Only time will tell. So far they are doing well and holding their own since they like Jager have two war fronts. Let's hope their members don't do as Jager has done and start to become complacent. They seem to eat their inactives as most good tribes do. It looks like you might eat some barbs but not many so I am assuming it is for church purposes because of your tight spread.

Nice spread between you and your sister tribe. As many have noted in the past Owning a rim can have many benefits for defending your front lines. One of your tribes is making great progress against ReHab. Congratz! But your other tribe seems more interested in eating barbs. Seems it would be better to be hitting ReHab and F! rather than all those barbs.

You have been warring for some time against ReHab and Jager. I am sad to see the stats if I am to be honest. Especially where you declared and not the other way around. I see you making inroads on Jager but they have made more into you, very frankly other tribes have made more progress against even ReHab than you have. Your ally SUBV seems to be taking a ton of hits for you, once they are gone what will you do for an alliance? Other tribes are outgrowing you as well and soon you will drop even in the ranks. Step up your game or go home.
It seems to this observer that you thought if you declared on Jager that would be enough to make them up and quit and when they didn't you decided to ignore them. ( Heck I can't decide if Stealthy is hating them or kissing their backsides here on the externals when he posts.) They are making inroads into your villages even if at a snails pace. You are even slower than they are to take out your war targets. And the barbeling goes on here as well.

Read your sister tribes review I added yours in there with them.
6 ~FFF~
Looks like they are busy eating the other tribes from their k's with a few expansions. Would like to see them take on some other big tribes in their area like ADDICT or maybe some other top 20 tribes they share borders with, just to see what they can do. They do seem to fly under the radar for the most part.
7 Colour
Colour what can I say? A 16 member team that seems to kick ass and take names later. They seem to have taken out a lot of tribes in their area and possibly a little upset with Llama for taking in their food. Who will they hit next is the big question. They have several targets to pick from. Will they hit Llama for taking in their refugees? Maybe Kain since they share a decent border or ~FFF~ whom they share a decent border with as well? Lots of options only time will tell or will they come on and let us know?
Those barbs though ugh!! That is a lot of barbs here recently. I didn't look at the map closely so I am going to assume since I see what those same players nobled for live targets that most are for churches. Which makes sense from this tribe. They don't seem the type to like a diet of grey but more a red diet.
8 F!
Well what is there to say? You are newly broken off from ReHab from your failed merge. The big question is will the tribes that were warring ReHab let you off the hook or go after you as well. You seem busy internalizing or eating barbs for the time being.
9 KIAN
Nice tight cluster in the core. Question is what are they up to? You don't hear from them much in the externals. They seem to be having a war with their internals and the barbarians.
10 WAR!
They are a bit quiet on here but have a nice spread that Llama should never have allowed to happen. But a birdie tells me they have relations with Llama. If Colour decides to expand on the Llama's will they join in and if so on which side will they land? They also seem to eat a lot of barbs rather than players.
11 Llama
Llama's what were you thinking!!! You let War! grow to your backside and that will be a mistake in the future. Even if you have relations in the future you will have to eventually go to war with them. They have no way to expand forward without going through you. That is fact.
Now your second huge mistake here in recent history was to take in refugees. That is a tribal wars no no and other tribes take notice and see you as real potential food. As a result you could have a major three front war on your hands maybe even four fronts. And I do hear the angry grumblings from various other tribes about your recent recruits. I am sure Colour, War!, CGI family, and even little old Bale would love to tag team you so they can all grow. You have put yourself in a very big pickle.
That is all for now since this has taken me from my farming and family time. I do hope it sparks some debate from all. Sorry it isn't the full 20 this time. I don't usually write in this thread but it felt like it was dying.
