Borders are 1 region out from each player in the clan ie "Attack Radius"

Border Friction in Black


#1 Scotland (Highland Clan)
Scotland has the most unclaimed regions and NO players outside the alliance or even rival alliances nearby. These guys are going to be quiet for a while but will be a force to be reckoned with and annihilate Northumbria once they have taken Scotland.


#2 Mercia (Midlandia)
Although they named their country wrong, these guys have a fairly solid power base with very close players able to protect each other (with one outlier). The negative is that being in the centre of the UK, they border Wales, Wessex and any unformed Anglia and Northumbria alliance. This is the first place we are going to see battles.


#3 Wessex (House of Wessex)
While this is the smallest alliance they found the correct country name, they have some room to grow and have cut off access to Cornwall from everyone else. With room to expand into unclaimed Anglia, they can avoid conflict with everyone else if they use diplomacy.


#4 Wales (Welsh Alliance)
Almost joint third with Wessex, Wales also have a little expansion room. The negative for these guys is that conflict with Mercia is almost guaranteed unless they sneak south and go for Wessex instead.


#5 Northumbria (Unclaimed)
Yeah... there is a lot of space and players between Birmingham and Edinburgh! No alliance has been formed here yet but with the right mix of players Northumbrians could approach Scotland in power, though with far more fights on the journey.


#6 Anglia (Unclaimed)
United the Anglian players would be as powerful as Mercia but with a much better strategic location. here there are the most unclaimed regions outside of Scotland, so this is just raw potential for whoever can get there first.


#7 Northern Ireland (Unclaimed)
Northern Ireland is going to struggle being important with so few regions, a strategy with islands and navies could work though and it is the most defensive location in the game if they can keep the largest navy.
