Ive noticed on Global a number of smaller alliance leaders understandably stating their displeasure with the tournament. Due to their size they feel its pointless as they're unable to compete.

A possible solution to this would be for future tournaments the ability for alliances to confederate and work as one/in unison. This would allow all Illyriad players to compete. Realistically as it stands now only the top 5 or so alliances have any realistic chance of holding a flag.

I agree that this tourney favors large economies.
 
I think a smaller alliance can capture a flag for a while with good planning and organization.  But winning the flag is still probably unrealistic.
 
Perhaps there could be Prizes for each "Weight Class" of alliances.  So an alliance of POP <=X are ranked without considering alliances of POP>X.  Hence, two divisions.
 
But I think all alliances should at least try to capture a flag for a little while just to get their name on the leaderboard to show their "alliance colors" on the battlefield.

Yes I agree, however there would have to be a limit to the size of the alliances. heh heh...

In clarifying my above stat, in a confederation of alliances the rule would apply for a limited (maximum) number of players ie 100 (the current Alliance member max). This would obviously rule out larger alliance confederation and place the benefit with the smaller alliances ie the desired effect.

Obviously the idea requires refining but the basic concept I believe is sound.

But what about alliances with large numbers of new players?
