Your League Rank determines your position in the League, as well as your duties and privileges. The Ranks in each League are as follows, from highest to lowest: League Marshal, Captain, Commander, Fighter, Ambassador, Knight, Ranger, Guardian, Soldier, Recruit, and Neophyte.
League Marshals command and manage the League. They can set League Ranks for other members, accept and remove players, edit their privileges, dismiss or rename their League, and everything else listed in the “Rank Privileges” tab.
Captains can also set Ranks for all League Members except League Marshals and other Captains. Some of privileges can be only granted to Captains by their League Marshals. They are the following: statistic access, chat moderation rights, Fortress administration rights, attack requests, privilege editing rights, and member removal rights.
Note: League Captains who have been granted the right to remove League Members or edit their privileges can only do so to Members who rank below them.
The difference between the two lowest League Ranks – Recruit and Neophyte – is as follows:
A Recruit is a new League Member who has been fully accepted into that League. A Neophyte is a Lord who isn't yet a full-fledged League Member and is still undergoing training in the League Academy.
