A few of you would have heard of CP (Combined Powers), although we are not one of the bigger alliances.
At the start of round 9 we had about 100 members, most of them active on IRC.
But most of you know the round was not good for most alliances and they suffered :-(
Members got sick of the constant incomming and became less active.
Well he we go again and hopefully we can have a bit more fun this time but mostly we need to recruit new members and regroup present members.
We are looking for members with or without experience of PA.
You will find us a friendly bunch, so you can always get help when needed unless of course you have 100k incomming ;p
Although my nick on here is IKG, on IRC it's GID.
If you want a chat pop along to our IRC chan, I'm there most of the time until I change my job in a months time.
Our present High command are as follows:
T-Shot, NAT0, Tuck, CJ. billy and Atredies (possible changes)

Alliance History:
Thanks to spawn(ex HC) for this info
Combined Powers was formed in round 8 when the hc's of Acid, Soh, Vortex, Div and Angel got together and decided that combined they would be stronger
During the whole round Cp was the number one tag.
now the Real alliances dont tag, tagging is for noobs or so they say
indeed Tagging meant a security risk but Cp faired well
In round 9 Cp came back as a true alliance, many had left, others joined.
Defense still was strong and commitment good.
In round 9 Cp only tagged the first 2 weeks and the last 2 weeks. Recruitment was handled through interviews on irc, so Cp became more and more an irc active alliance
during round 9 many lost interest due to the Powerblock situation.
Now that round 9.5 is here Combined Powers is still a nice alternative to powerblocking
In random galaxies alliance mates mean more than galaxy mates, because in Cp you know who you can trust
Good defense , reasonable attacks and retals, great fun, good contacts with other nice alliances.
Choose Combined Powers.
Alliance Rules:
CP alliance rules
General
-------
1 thou shalt not attack your fellow CP member, or its allies. To be sure, use the target checker in utilities.
2 thou shalt defend eachother. This is vital, this is why we're here: to get more defence than only galaxy defence
3 thou shalt attack together. This is why we're here too, more incoming targets to a galaxy means less galaxy defence.
4 Please use the forums to chit and chat.
5 thou shalt be active on irc, for general communication getting def and attacks sorted
Defence calls
-------------
a good defence call looks like this:
1 a copy and paste of the whole galaxy status of the planets incomings (+hidden overburn from overview)
2 a copy and paste of other defenders that are not yet on the galaxy status.
3 a copy and paste of you own fleet (and pds) from overview
4 scans of the attacker.
please note: we can't react to defence calls with eta 3, you may only post these if you ask us to attack the attacker.
Attacks
-------
1 if you claim a target from a CP attack, you must launch, otherwise you bring fellow members in danger, because your target can go defend others.
2 you can unclaim your target 2 ticks before launch;
there's no other possibility.
3 if you claim, but dont launch, you become an "unworthy to attack" member. You have to react to 2 defence calls to become a normal member again. Other members are allowed to throw rotting fruit and eggs to "unworthy to attack" members.
Members of Inactive or Unworthy wings will not have defence raised for them if their gal mates ask for it. Any defence call they make must clearly state that they are in the Unworthy or Inactive wings so members can prioritise their defence. If Unworthy members post a def call this is added to the number of defences they must make to get out of the wing.
LAST
-----
If you do attack a CP member or any of its allies, you get a reprimande, do it again and you're out. you will be thrown out of CP and there will be an attack made, open to CP and its allies. So use the target checker before attacking
Any questions post a message here or speak to me on IRC.
Regards
GID or IKg take your pick
