For a great while, KaW was ruled by the ZAFT alliance. They outnumbered all of the other alliances, and owned a major section of the leaderboard. People either loved them or hated them. Every other day would be a thread on when ZAFT's run would finally be over. Many saw ZAFT as bullies, ally-hoarders, and people that preyed on the smaller players of the game. And then came Apocalypse. Small at first, but expanding through the months. They soon reached the point where they could, and did, take on ZAFT. The war began, and is still to this day on-going. Now I am not here to talk about this was and who is winning, and this thread is not the place for that either. Apocalypse is undoubtedly the largest alliance of KaW, and ZAFT has weakened significantly. The 'bullies' have been replaced, but by what? Apocalypse is on track to go in the same path as ZAFT had for so long. Dominating all OSW with sheer number, dominating the leaderboards (granted at a lesser scale), and preying on the smaller kingdoms. Yes, they have freed the ally market. But what realistically stops them from closing it back up? Now everyday in world chat I see war "discussion" between apocalypse and other clans. Apocalypse talks quite a lot, because they know that they have tens of clans ready to back them up. They seem to act in the same way ZAFT once did: cocky. A few even act as bullies, farming noobs and smaller kingdoms just for fun, the thing that ZAFT once was. You can call this thread an entire over generalization if you want, and I will probably receive backlash from Apocalypse for it, but I believe that the Apocalypse alliance is turning into the enemy that it strived so long to defeat. Please try to keep this thread civil.
For starters, a good number of ZAFT jumped ship and are now Apocalypse. What made Apocalypse really good was that they were smaller, more efficient due to lesser numbers whilst being the underdogs. Empires come and go, such is the nature of things. It's just a cycle, one family gets too big. It reaches a point where it's reached its pinnacle and can't go any further. Slowly players will fall off and the alliance returns to its optimal size. The core of ZAFT and it's loyal players are still holding out. So there's that. I see a lot of blatant disrespect from certain Apocalypse players on walls/WC. I'm hope they don't reflect the sentiments of their clans, but kudos to ZAFT for holding out. They've lost leaders, their LBs, clanmates who once pledged unwavering loyalty, banks. Let's not forget, ZAFT were a force to be reckoned with for over 5 years. Does no one remember ZiG? Good memories there.
As hog I can say hog hit Zaft as Zaft lb were allowed to hit apoc didn't care about "freeing ally market" however on that note getting mad over someone hiring an ally especially when u never have incoming as no water is just silly unless they feel your trying to volley with them knowing u won't let go lol
Lol, what did you expect? Embrace the cycle. Unless you're retiring from kaw. Then don't embrace the cycle.
^What did you expect? Those with power will exercise it. There are great people in Apoc, and there are jerks. Both are in Apoc, and both have power. Some free the market, some close it more. Some farm silently, some talk too much. It is as expected. We'll see how things turn out though.
That's pretty much how it was with ZAFT too. Some are sweet and kind. Some are mean bullies that don't say good morning/afternoon/evening/night. Some will strip you over accidental ally hire when their market is closed. And Some will skim steals on you everyday. Without saying good morning.

Yep I remember ZiG. I LCBCed off hitting them and then converted to pure spy when I caught a 50b strip (pretty decent strip back then). First osw. Never went back since then
Zaft will remain zaft, with people still flying the "no hires", and "hit here, even though I'm opted in a pvp event and join the osw"(DarkFury for one) banners. Apocalypse, we'll see. I personally hope if it ever got to the point where it turned to just a bullying, hide behind the name alliance, majority of the people would leave.
I know of a strip performed by an Apoc clan for an ally hire. Not gonna name names. But wasn't that why y'all hit zaft one of the times?
Yeah honestly I can't remember over half the clans I've osw with too many. And some were trash so easily forgotten. I remember my first, the great ones, and the tough ones.
The harb strip yes. Someone hired from him. He hire hit back. I'm talking about someone being stripped by 2 Apoc clans for a simple hire.
