Snowstorm, CP Army Network HQ – As 2021 draws to a close, the board of CP Army Network is proud to introduce the 2021 End Of The Year Awards to commemorate all the achievements made by individuals and armies last year.

 

2021 has been quite an eventful year for the CPA community – from the end of Flash to numerous wars and community run tournaments, we’ve seen it all. Through these awards, CPAN seeks to honor and highlight the achievements of individuals and armies who’ve made an impact on the community.

Traditionally, CPA awards are given on the basis of a community wide vote and staying true to this spirit, this year too, CPAN will be holding a community wide vote for all the award categories shown below. The voting will use a public ballot via a Google Form. At the end of the voting period, the nominee(s) with the highest number of votes will be declared as the winner.

Best Small/Medium Army

While smaller than their Major army counterparts, S/M armies are still serious contenders in their own right. Many of our nominees became or came close to becoming Major Armies albeit only for a short while during the summer.

  • Red Ravagers
  • Secret Service
  • Silver Empire

The hallmark of a great leader is the ability to put the interest of their army ahead of their own. Such an individual leads by example, empathize with their troops, and inspire them to work hard for the betterment of their army.
