Alliance
From Guild Wars Wiki
An alliance is a group of up to ten guilds allied together under a single banner, for the purposes of communication and player versus player.

[edit] Forming an alliance
New alliances may only be formed by a guild leader who owns the Guild Wars Factions campaign and has pledged his allegiance to either the Luxons or the Kurzicks. To join the Luxon or Kurzick alliance, the guild leader needs to travel to the corresponding capital city (House zu Heltzer for Kurzick, Cavalon for Luxon.) and pay a tribute of 500 
to the representing ambassador.
The guild will then become the leader of the alliance, and the guild leader of that guild will become the leader of the alliance.
[edit] Joining an alliance
Up to ten guilds may inhabit an alliance at any given time. To join an alliance, the guild in question must be invited by the alliance leader, at a cost of 1 
. Guilds cannot ask to join an alliance - they must be invited.
[edit] In an alliance
Upon joining an alliance, a guild will gain access to a number of new features.
- Members of different guilds can communicate with each other though the alliance chat.
- Members of different guilds can access each others' guild halls.
- Members of all guilds can participate in alliance battles for Kurzick or Luxon faction. This can be traded in for alliance faction, which is used to control ownership of towns.
- A Kurzick player can get a guest invite into a Luxon guild, then do Alliance Battles for the Luxons, and vice versa. This will not give you Kurzick faction.
- If your alliance owns one of the capitals (House zu Heltzer or Cavalon), you can gain access to the elite missions Urgoz's Warren and The Deep (Kurzick and Luxon respectively).
[edit] Leaving an alliance
A guild leader can remove his guild from the alliance at any time. To do this, select your guild from under the Alliance tab, than click "Leave Alliance" at the bottom of the window.
[edit] Alliance faction
Your alliance faction depends on how much faction each guild in that alliance has. Gaining faction of your alignment will allow you to purchase an item from a Luxon Scavenger or Kurzick Bureaucrat. These NPCs will also ask if you would like to donate faction. You need 5,000 faction of one allegiance to donate. Your alliance faction will be raised by 5,000 for donating 5,000 faction, and your corresponding allegiance rank will progress with 10,000 points. Also, to keep you on your toes, 10% of your alliance faction is deducted every day.
If a guild leaves the alliance, any faction that guild contributed with will be lost.
