What alliances do in the beta
Alliances are online. Members help each other with building timers, send gifts, talk in the alliance chat and take a weekly oath together. The alliance Chronicle records what the group has done.
Cooperation instead of fear
Because PvP is mild and troops are not lost permanently, an alliance is a team you play with, not only a shield against attacks. That makes it easier to bring friends who are new to strategy games.
Start a group with friends
Everyone starts as a guest in the browser, on a computer or a phone, so there is nothing to install before your first evening together. Each player can secure their progress with an e-mail address.
Shape the world together
Players vote in the Players' Council on what comes next and propose names for rivers and bridges. Alliance founders who join early help decide what the valley is called.
