==The Creation of 5th Element/xVx==
'''xVx''' was formed by a small core of [[VisioN]] command and members after that alliance disbanded between Round 13 and Round 14.
Consequentially '''xVx''' came to existance close before Round 14 was starting.

'''xVx''' is the abbreviation for Fifth Element - in the meaning of the element combining the ancient elements earth, fire, air and water. Aristotle named this fifth - superior - element spirit.

==Rounds==
===Round 14===
This round for us was supposed to be a tryout round. Our target was to build a solid memberbase for the upcoming rounds which did involve a lot of tryout in both command and members. Starting with 35 members into the round we did a lot of recruitment - overall appx. 120 players have been in our rows throughout the round - 78 finished it.

In the final rankings we finished at position 5 - which was far beyond our expectations. Partially supported by numerous alliances disbanding/merging but mainly because we were able to put a decent fight till the end, outgrowing the averages of several alliances within the last 2 weeks.

On the political side we remained without any naps or allies throughout the round.

===Round 15===
Our second round turned out to be a pretty difficult one. After several backstrokes throughout the round it has been a hard challenge for everyone that stuck with xVx.

There was a nice amount of recruitment happening. A lot of new faces joined our ranks which was again a pleasure.
We didn't quite meet our expectations rankwise - too many internal issues and a lot of rebuilding mid-round took their price.

Due to rl reasons R14/15 HCs Uthor and Marka had to step down after the round was done.
A replacement has been found with Supersander - excellent players that have proven themselves to be capable officers/HC in previous rounds.

===Round 16===
With the new command structure xVx tries again to have an impact on PA and it's community while maintaining the friendly atmosphere we have been able to achieve throughout the rounds.

===Round 17===
In our quest to become a more efficient training alliance we started to put members and recruits into four different training groups - called clans. Those are led by some of our most experienced members. This gives recruits the chance to learn the ways of the games more quicker.

Politically it has been a rather uninteresting round for us. We had a major dispute with HR and some differences with F-Crew aswell.

We have seen again a load of fluctuation in our memberbase but yet again managed have a nice Top10 finish - namely on rank 7.

===Round 18===
Unsuspectedly xVx had a rather good start and for a change very actively participated in the political maneuvres of this round.

Starting with a 3 day campaign of SubH, Escape and us versus Omen who had been majorly hostile until then (not so much afterwards).
The second major campaign was a counter-block against eXilition to give them some opposition on the #1 spot. 1up and SubH were the partners. Sadly SubH backstabbed this block right away and we took quite some bashing.
The rest of the round was some close run for the 3rd place for us - with 1up and ToF being the main competitors. We managed to end on 4th place in a pretty competitive round.
