Uff... I try to avoid commenting on this because when the game gets in full swing i dont think most of the tribes in the current top 20 will still be around.
I never not answer a question but ill answer it slightly differently. Ill let you know who I think have potential..
IHate - Obviously have a lot of potential and will make it to be a strong contender for number one. I dont think they will make it though. If other members are like Hefty they seem as though they will be too elitest for their own good.
InSane - I think these guys will shoot up the ranks at some point but I reckon war will wear them down. Perhaps their militery coordination can prove me wrong
MH - Although my tribe I would like to think I retain the ability to be self-critical. MH show a lot of potential, very active and very organised. How well each members know how to use their troops we will see. Regardless of this, it is nice to see an established tribe that will be top for a while. I should perhaps make another of these comments when nobles come out to play.
Pest - Certainly a top tribe but I will put money on one or two of their listed 'squad leaders' breaking off, perhaps with their squads, to join an advancing tribe. This may or may not be their downfall but I reckon it will happen
Fianna - Good hearty tribe. I see them lingering around for a while. With a lot of strict, hard work from their council in areas such as player experience, guidence and activity.. I reckon they have the positioning to gather mommentum and give some top tribes a good chellenge.. they will certainly alter some tribe perceptions
Unfortuantely I dont think I have too much to say about other tribes. These were listed in no particular order and I know i have left some other potentials out... but I simply havent looked at them enough and I appologise for that lol. If you think there are some I should have then feel free to shout at me for it.
