Alliance Tournaments: Grandmaster – A New Level of Strategy

By Bek 26 March 2025

Kolrami’s Legacy: High-Stakes War Games

Kolrami’s reputation as a brilliant tactician was cemented when he conducted an intense battle simulation aboard the USS Enterprise-D—pushing both sides of the exercise to their limits. This high-stakes style of testing serves as the inspiration for the Grandmaster Edition of Alliance Tournaments. Rather than simply racking up points, alliances must rely on meticulous planning, split-second teamwork, and the ability to adapt under pressure. If you’re looking to prove your worth, this is your moment to shine.

Alliance Games Refresh

Whether you’re an alliance veteran or a brand-new recruit, here’s a quick rundown of how Alliance Tournaments work:

Task Board Mechanics

  • You and your alliance teammates will claim and complete tasks from a shared Task Board.
  • Each player has a limited number of tasks they can pick each day.
  • Prioritize higher-value tasks to rack up maximum daily points.

Scoring & Rewards

  • Completed tasks earn Alliance Tournament Credits.
  • Your final alliance standing on the leaderboard determines which segmented rewards you receive. Higher rank means bigger rewards!
  • Be sure to spend your credits in the Alliance Tournament Store before the event ends—you don’t want to miss out.

Promotion & Relegation

  • Perform well, and your alliance is promoted to higher leagues, unlocking even better rewards.
  • Struggle this time around, and your alliance might be relegated—you’ll have another chance to dominate in a new league for the next event.

What Makes This “Grandmaster” Run Special?

Different Thresholds

  • This run has different thresholds for promotion/relegation, adding in a higher stakes challenge to the event. See the image below for more details. 

Strategy & Tips

  • Communicate Constantly: Like the Enterprise crew working under Kolrami’s watchful eye, coordination is everything. Align on which tasks to prioritize and consider each move carefully.
  • Avoid a Last-Minute Scramble: The Alliance Tournament Store closes once the event ends! Spend your Strategema Move Tokens in the Event Store!
  • Rally Your Alliance: If you’re not in an alliance yet, join one ASAP. There’s never been a better time to collaborate and reap collective rewards.

Becoming the Master Strategist

Kolrami’s battle simulations taught us that success in Starfleet often hinges on creativity, composure, and the willingness to adapt. The Grandmaster Edition takes these lessons to heart. Whether you aim for Master League or are steadily climbing from Novice ranks, this is your chance to prove your mettle—just as the Enterprise crew did when faced with Kolrami’s high-pressure scenarios.

We can’t wait to see which alliances rise to the occasion and outthink this formidable challenge. Remember the words of Captain Jean-Luc Picard when encouraging Data in his face-off with Kolrami:

“It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.”

– Captain Jean-Luc Picard
