Alliance

You will come across large and small alliances in every kingdom. Some are there to take over the kingdom others are there to farm. Alliances will greatly benefit you in the game. When in an alliance you get alliance bonus technology. The alliance works together and donates Grain or Wood to technology that can be researched for the alliance. Other benefits include things such as when someone purchases alliance packs with gems. Everyone receives some gifts from the pack. There is also an alliance store. The more you donate to the alliance the more alliance points you receive. With the alliance points you can buy items and spells from the store instead of using gems and resources. Alliance leaders can also use alliance points to stock up the store.

When in an alliance you can participate in events like Grimm Raiders and have a high chance of getting good loot.

You can also create your own alliance instead of joining one. If you are planning on playing with a friend make sure you are in the same kingdom. A change kingdom spell will be in your inventory from the start of the game. You can then teleport to the same kingdom as your friend but you must do this before you reach castle 6.
