Thanks for the nice map.
active= few challenges overall nice location. war with scum is inevitable. best chance of controlling k44 would be to avoid too many early wars. spreading like this means many targets for farming and many enemies.
scum= best chance of survival will be diplomacy. i.e gather a resistance against active. we could see a break off at a latter stage. few top players merging in active or anyother tribe.
what?= i think wickerman has lead tribe with this name. if he is leading again it will be a top 5 tribe. from the map it seems they were trying something similar to jedi!. if that's the case there is a possible diplomacy b/w these two pre-mades.
jedi!= nice location. they will hit top rank soon but rank will fall once nobling start due to less targets. latter stage of the game looks easy for them. if they manage to hold on for a while k55 stands no chance against them.
Chaos= very large border with jedi. In case of war it would be difficult to fight. too many targets to defend. best chance of survival is to recruit in k45 and expand there.
Great post, just a few things i'd like to point out. My opinions really, nothing to back them up...
Jedi's position is super smexy, i'll admit that. Ours had no planning what so ever, pretty much start in k55 and go from there.
Hitting top rank before nobles, is well... Meaningless.
Our position i actually think is just fine incase of war with Jedi and i don't see why you think they would take k55 so easy. Please do explain.
