Let’s dive right into it, shall we?

Retirements/Rank Updates

Ayan and Emcee Retire from their position as CP Army Media CEOs

With the creation of CP Army Hub, the duo have decided to set sail towards retirement island. Both of them released their retirement posts on the 29th of June which featured their final words and an emotional goodbye to their friends and the community. The two are now advisors to CP Army Hub’s current administration and will be missed dearly by the whole community!

CP Army Legend Zuke Retires From Ice Warriors Leadership

The Ice Warriors leader hung up his boots and announced his retirement from the community due to a busy schedule and school. Zuke led Ice Warriors to the Legends Cup semi-finals and helped them reach sizes of over 100. He also led SWAT to great heights in the past and was regarded as one of the community’s best leaders.

Meerkat Retires From Doritos Leadership, Wassim Demoted

Doritos legend Meerkat quit the army on the 29th and returned a mere 48 hours later. His retirement came due to some internal issues within the army and he decided to step down and become an advisor but has since resumed his role as a leader. On the other hand, Wassim was demoted due to inappropriate behavior and now sits as a leader-in-training.

Dark Warriors Leader Myra Retires, Squirrel and Julia Promoted

Myra was part of the team that revived DW in February 2020 and is a DW legend. Her retirement came due to personal reasons such as having a packed schedule and not being able to dedicate as much time to CP armies as she’d like. Squirrel and Julia were promoted to a leadership position after serving as leaders-in-training for a while. We wish them all the best going forward!

Wars and Battles

Legends Cup X Final: Rebel Penguin Federation vs Help Force

In one of the biggest battles of the year, we saw RPF and HF face off in the Legends Cup final. The HF went into this battle as the underdogs but were determined to put on a great performance. The Rebels maxed 155 while the Helpers garnered around 69 troops. HF put on an admirable effort but the size advantage that RPF had was just too big and they were able to win with a score of 3-0

Recon Federation Declare War on Los Facheros

After a failed merger between the infamous Recon Federation and Los Facheros, Prior Bumble decided to declare civil war on LFA. The war had one battle on the server Beanie and an uninvited Water Vikings showed up. The war was short-lived and RFCP ended up declaring victory after LFA leader Amelia stepped down.

Battle of the Blues – Ice Warriors vs Help Force

A very competitive battle between the 3rd and 4th placed armies on the top twenty broke out on the 30th of June. The Ice Warriors maxed an impressive 67 while Help Force had 40 online. The battle was also Zuke’s final event at the helm for Ice Warriors and after this battle, he retired. Many thought the battle would be highly competitive however it ended up being one-sided with IW taking home a 3-0 victory.

Doritos Battle Army of CP and Water Vikings

The Doritos faced the ACP on the 27th of June in a close battle. Both armies garnered good sizes with ACP hitting up to 48 troops online while DCP maxed 40. Even though the battle looked very close on paper, ACP managed to win with a score of 3-0. However, Doritos managed to come back and dominate WV in a battle and were able to max over 60 troops while WV hit just 24. WV ended up forfeiting the battle after the second room and DCP won with a score of 2-0.

Coup Crusaders Declare War on Templars

Coup Crusaders declared war on Templars recently and the armies battled on the server Alpine. There was controversy surrounding the battle due to Coup Crusaders’ parent colony Ice Warriors logging on to help but in the end, the win was given to Templars due to Coup Crusaders breaking the terms that they set. The war has since reached a stalemate and there haven’t been many battles but it is still an ongoing conflict.

Army Openings/Closings

Army of the Orient Seas Crashes Into the Community

This new army has been successful so far as they’ve already made it onto the top 20 coming in at number 16 this week. The army is led by Daya, Ken, Intrinsic, and Zen as of today and they’ve already been growing exponentially as they started off maxing 13 and are now hitting sizes close to 20+ with ease!

Turnage Penguin Army Opens Its Doors

The army has recently opened its doors and they’ve been doing very well size-wise, maxing 23 in their first training event. The army is led by CP Army Legend Koloway alongside Turnage and Jubilee. They are set to battle the Ice Warriors on the 5th of July. Will they be able to snatch a victory as the underdogs? We shall wait and see!

Black Order Returns From the Shadows

The army is made up of Pirates’ veterans and they’ve recently come back together to reincarnate this army. The army is led by a former Pirates leader, Romeo, who seems to believe that they’ll be able to reach great heights.
