Branches and academies are subordinate alliances created to get around the alliance member cap. They are only legal because they are separate alliances. The alliance member cap is a cap. Once reached no more members are allowed.
In order to complete 4 wonders, the alliance needs to have the best of the best players in the game world. Remember that there can be only one of each wonder. The alliance that achieves this goal will not only defend there own wonders, but destroy those owned by others. Each and every member of such an alliance needs to be absolutely dependable. These will be players that have the armies ready to send when the phone rings in the middle of the night. Those that read the forum 2 days after the event and then apologise that their armies are not ready are not going to be welcome in such a group.
It is these champions that the hero world is intended for. It will be the best players from each world pitted against each other. This will be a world where each conquest will be the culmination of a long hard fought series of battles. Those that are deemed fit to be in an academy will not last more than 2 days OOP.
The alliance cap is a cap, I don't support extending it to include other alliances.
I agree completely. Alliance arms are abuse of the alliance limit.
