I'm in

Rockin!!!

Sounds to me there are 7 lucky fams Arby3!

Good luck to everyone

Hey! X(

You know I love you Arby3!

Who's doing the PvC then

Sol you have a pretty impressive list of who's in each family so I think it should be you

wtf are you on about Death?

Where's this PvC then sol ?

In these dark times with all the conflicts in the world going about we can see the reflection of it in the IC family theme's
Hell/dark themes seem to be popular these days. Although there's one f

1    Seven Seas Of Rhye (491) [69,52]     573     2130416     24998    
Leader: Sol Invictus
Notable players: Dimpel, Stealth, Whiteheaven, Ledukas, Alec (will be his first full round in a family) and 1 other but idk if he wants his name up in here

We started out with only 5 players playing together, till an active newbie joined us, together with some other experienced late joiners.
We pulled together and managed to work our way up here. When I was thinking of starting this PvC we were still ranked 5th. So far we had a short raid war with 492.
Strangely this family thought it strange for a Heaven themed fam to attack one that is the fiery pits called hell. Good thing we got Stealth playing on his golden PSP

Contender: For 1st place.

2    LEGENDARY (494) [31,120]     654     2097826     31599    
Leader: Aeonflux
Notable players: Gnomes, Keolah, Tormented,Arachnaphobia, Firefox & one vet who doesn't wants his name made public (yet)

The only family that started with a full family at SOR. They had they had the size/score and networth rank from the start but last couple days they started battling with 491 for first place in networth.
With Aeonflux they got a good leader who uses diplo skills, I believe the raided/attacked 496 past couple days so don't expect them to infrawhore till EOR.

Contender: For 1st place.

3    Solar Eclipse (497) [107,7]     542     2061631     25868    
Leader: IC Death
Notable players: klepto, flashy, schnapp, knox, one vet trying to play on the dl

With IC Death leading you know they got a rocking economy and they will be a fam to watch although the started with a lot of inactives.
They managed to climb up in the ranks with a tight group and had Knox random with them. They are very close in catching 491 and 494 in networth.
Can they keep this up and what will IC Death do when things go South. Will he get his bum arrested again by tha police? So far that doesn't seem likely and with 3 fams so close will hopefully keep this round interesting for a while.

Contender: For 1st place.

4    The Devils Army (490) [26,27]     427     1340199     15431    
Leader: Orbit
Notable players: Astra, Kuwait, Risingdown, Seluroob

They started out as the bottom fam, but managed to grow quickly past 4 other fams and managed to get a decent NW gap with them. So far I saw them skirmish with all most every family in the galaxy.
I hope this family keeps on growing and is see them closing the gap with the top 3 families if they continue this way. They have only 2 attackers of which one seems to be a semi rezzie/attacker.
They will need another attacker to be able to compete with most of the other fams. 

Contender: For a top 3 finish.

5     Tour de France (493) [98,33]     410     1178730     19505    
Leader: Paperclip
Notable players: Gnomes, LoneGuardian, Gefilte, Hookers

They were all set for a beautiful round with a Netherlands theme but had to change it in a short time since they got kicked out the WC.
I was surprised seeing the entire fam make the switch and thought this family would be higher by now. However so far they rogued one of their players for miss-using the family bank making them fall down in the rankings.
Will they climb back up or will the holiday season slow down their comeback? I know Paperclip will be relentless in making it so.

Pretender: For a top 3 finish.

6    P A N T Y R A I D E R S (495) [119,103]     400     1123580     19001    
Leader: Jodeci
Notable players: Galactic monkeys, paxmode

I played with Jodeci last round and know he is one active slut with a hunger for action. Their theme seems to suggest so too. 497 attacked them early on and set them back a little.
This fam will most likely be the most aggressive fam around, only they will need a solid eco for that, or they able to work together well enough to accomplish that?

Pretender: Top 5 finish

7    Hardened Criminals (496) [42,85]     275     779681     21553    
Leader: Thief (my money is on either Easyway or Onion making a silent comeback)
Notable Players:Oberon khan, Random hero/cloud, Spyro

These criminal had a though round so far. They overshot their early on spread and got pushed back by 491. 494 raided them the other day and they are struggling with fighting off the top eco fams.
They Will need to nap 1 or 2 of the fams above them to create some safe zone's to expand into.

Pretender: Top finish 4th to 6th place.

8    Welcome to Hell (492) [98,88]     271     745845     16747    
Leader: Luster
Notable players: Sten, Grace

Luster got raided badly by 491 but an IC vet should know better and have build better defences. They seem to be doomed to be the bottom fam.

Pretender: Will finish last place.

Don't you hurry me.....:P The PvC is still at the first page of this rounds topic. I could have waited and posted it 2 weeks from now and still be on the 1st page.

Good luck everyone!
