The Alliance League
Star Player |
DeadDog again came close to this one with an average of 13 points a game but was
narrowly beaten both by Heksa with 14, and the eventual winner EcthelionDeLaFuente with
an amazing 18 points per game

The
'Psycho' Award |
 |
The 'Psycho' award is an attempt to recognise
those Alliance players who are dedicated to mayhem. Those
who treat the lives of their own men with as little respect
as they do their opponents. To this end the award goes
to the player who has racked up more kills over the season
than any other player. It doesn't matter whether its their
own men, their opponents, or even innocent spectators,
all that matters is the body count.
henjed, DryHeat, Spaceman Spiff, Punish and SCARDADDY all managed to rack up an
impressive 30 points per game, but all were left in the dust by the 34 points a game
of carnage caused by the maniacal Colonel Mustard

The Florence Nightingale
Award (aka the 'Guardian Angel' Award) |
The complete opposite of the 'Psycho' award,
the 'Guardian Angel' award is for those players who value
the lives of their loyal men almost as highly as their
own. These are the players who never deploy less than
a full medical hospital, and have been known to pass out
at the first sign of blood.
Five or six points lost per game was a popular average, but RazorFire managed only three
and the winner with only two points lost per game is EcthelionDeLaFuente
|
| The 'Lockout' Award |
 |
Lockouts, we all know how tough it is to
prevent your opponent scoring a single point in a game.
This award is for those masters of the game who have turned
defense into an art form. In fact these are so hard to
come by this award is often not even awarded.
Sadly this award goes begging again. Although DeadDog, Badfish, Hero Boy, John Johnston, Flash Panach and vom
deserve an honourable mention with a single lockout

 |
The 'Atlas' Award |
An award for the real ironmen of the Alliance
league. For those players who have for whatever reason
had to carry their clan through the season.
This award has not been awarded yet
|
| The 'Annihilator' Award |
 |
Every point counts in Alliance games and
the 'Annihilator' award recognises those players who show
their opponents no mercy. Those players who have racked
up more of those magic 20 point score lines than any others.
DeadDog picks up the gong for a wipeout in every one of the seven season ten matches.
Spaceman Spiff and Heksa coming very close behind with six.

 |
The 'Thriller' Award |
The ‘Thriller’ award
seeks to highlight those players
who put entertainment over glory. Those players who game
after game are involved in those matches that are just
too tight to call right until the end. So this award goes
to the player who has been involved in more games than
anyone else that have been decided by a single point.
This award often goes unclaimed, but this season is shared between Ugly Toy,
REDLAN and limavictor426 who each managed to be involved in two very close matches.
Ugly Toy also has distinction of being the only one of the three to have been on the
right side of both games.

| The 'Comeback' Award |
 |
Sometimes you find yourself snowed under, against the wall and drowning in the enemy. And then you pull off the most amazing run of kills, skills and destruction to grab the game back from your opponent.
This award was hotly contested this season with no less than six entrants. Spaceman Spiff, DeadDog, Duke Garland,
General Strike and zipdisk all got a few votes but the runaway winner was TOMU. His 9 points in
7 turns without losing either of his remaining saucers drew the match and was instrumental in gaining
the title for Doomed.

The ‘Oops’ award is for those players who made the ultimate blunder, killing more of their own troops in one fell swoop than their opponents could possibly dream of.
Only two players were brave enough to admit their mistakes this season. Severance made 9 of you laugh with
his classic missiling one MT with the other. The winner with with 15 votes for this self-grenading on the
way to a perfect 20-0 loss was Zombieman
|
| The 'Screenshot' Award |
 |
Image is everything and for the best image of Alliance season, a special award.
Six entrants again for this award. The also rans were RazorFire,
knowman, zipdisk and
General Strike. The narrow loser was limavictor426 with
a visually challenged commander being cut down from behind. Finally the winner was
Duke Garlandwith "One nade
to rule them all "

In October 2004 the LSN community heard of the passing away of Pearse Guina, better known to us as The Least Among Us. As founder, long time captain and player of the Rock N Roll Suicides, Least gave a great deal to LSN and Alliance in particular. As a special memorial, we have created a new award in his honour, The Least Among Us Veterans Award.
To reward those long term players in Alliance, the requirements are simple, to have played at least one game in every season of Alliance with the ultimate winner being decided by their contribuition in the season just passed.
Disaster Area was narrowly beaten for this by the positively ancient DeadDog
