[Ra] Ignis is now the less populated

Ignis is already a well developed realm of high lvl players.

Alsius is still the weakest realm, because it suffered for months from a recruiting problem, which it is still recovering from. It doesn't have enough high lvl, experienced players (and in particular experienced defence/support players.)

The enemy realms very often seem to have more healers and more knights, giving them huge block rates and great mana/heal support.

You only need to look at how often Alsius takes enemy forts, compared to how often and for how long their own forts get taken, to see that Alsius is still very much on the back foot.

Just because we have had a recent flood of new players trying out the realm, doesn't mean that Alsius is out of deep water.

Also, i've noticed that a lot of Ignis/Syrtis players started Alsius chars, but don't play them as much as their main non-Alsius chars. This means that to some degree the Alsius numbers may be 'artificial'.
