Popular Post Dorian Grey Posted March 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2022 I've noticed that every now and then the debate about what's a macro and who's a macro comes up in the community. And now, with even more terms becoming more common, such as nano, superpower or great power, it can be confusing for some people(myself included). I thought that it would not only be fun, but also a different way to talk about this topic with a TIER LIST, I know, so cliché, you couldn't come up with a better idea like a WoT and a TL:DR at the end? NO, I like having fun, plus who cares if it's clichè, am I right? Guys, am I right? Anyway, the intro was already to long, let's dive into this, here's how I thought we could divide the different power tiers: S tier, the SUPERPOWERS: basically, the alliances that make the moves, that keep the game entertaining A tier, the GRAET POWERS: alliances that still keep the game entertaining, but hold a bit less influence, compared to S tier, usually they need to be paired with another alliance in order to exert their power effectively B tier, the RISING POWERS: these are the alliances that are on the right track to become a great power, when they do something, it doesn't go unnoticed, they can also shake the game, but not as much the above tiers C tier, the MIDDLE: these alliances aren't irrelevant, but they are also easily forgotten. They do influence their bloc, nonetheless, but that's about it, they don't influence out-of-the-bloc politics D tier, MICRO POWERS: these alliances don't have influence over their bloc, at least, not enough to be noticed, and usually just follow the steps of the bigger alliances they are tied to E tier, NO POWER: alliances that are forgotten, they only make it to the news if they disband, it's a pretty bad tier to be in, usually no-one wants to be tied with you either F tier, THE FORGOTTEN TIER: if you can find alliances that you believe are even worse than E tier, this is the place for them. Basically as E, but worse, the game would be better without them Extra tier: the last tier is basically for alliances that you're unsure where they can go, no label on them Here's the link to the Tier List, feel free to change the tiers and explain why you did, hope this will make the topic more understandable to newbies, but also kinda see where different alliances stand from different Point of views.LINK Here's mine, in case anyone's wondering: 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Keegoz Posted March 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2022 Given Rose and t$ complained about not being able to influence the game with their own spheres, thus needing to ally up. I'd argue that potentially no one meets your S tier criteria. 7 2 Quote [11:52 PM] Prefontaine: But Keegoz is actually bad. [11:52 PM] Prefontaine: He's my favorite bad leader though.

hidude45454 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Incredibly sleep deprived as I'm writing this rn and therefore didn't read the rules too thoroughly but tbh most alliances are just happy being good allies and not standing out a great deal. So a couple of these are probably in the wrong places but imo overall political power is too concentrated within a few places, and it would be nice to have a larger set of politically active actors. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sweeeeet Ronny D Posted March 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2022 I would love to see somebody put together a power rankings instead of a tier list, and every week or two move alliances up and down the list in terms of perceived political power. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That definition alone puts t$ and Rose in A tier And we don't need anymore of these. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob Knox Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I did my best to consistently keep in mind the exact specifications of what each tier meant as I contemplated each alliance's role in their sphere and in Orbis at large. I didn't think there were any alliances that Orbis would be "better off without" (F tier description), though I had a moment where I put Cam there :serious:, and I wanted to give my ranking of every alliance even if I'm not the most familiar with them (no hard feelings). 1 2 2 Quote Federation of Knox Enlightened of Chaos, Event Horizon QA Team and API Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
