When trying to join a house that currently has no alliances in it, you automatically get booted out. not sure how long after, but it is a lot less than 24 hours.
I have been checking out the new Alliance and House features on my NG account by creating an alliance and attempting to join a vacant house just to see how all the manage functions, voting and bonuses operate.
It appears that I can have the alliance successfully join a vacant house (have tried Osiris and Neper so far with the same result), naturally the bonus doesn't appear immediately, however in the manage alliance screen it shows as aligned.
Yet when I logged in again less than 24 hours later, it shows as being unaligned, and furthermore it is actively preventing me from aligning to a new house for 120 hrs or whatever the absurdly long cool-down on changing houses is.
The alliance I created is now 13 days old, only 1 member obviously, and I didn't try to join a house until the Alliance was 5 days old.
Is there a functionality of the houses that isn't listed on the game updates page or is this a bug?

Re: Vacant Houses
You need more members, the house system was never intended for 1-2 man alliances.

Re: Vacant Houses
So what is the cutoff? How many members do you need in an alliance before it is considered "an alliance" ?

Re: Vacant Houses
5 last I checked, mentions something about it on the alliance management page.
5 is certainly the cut off point for being eligible for Bloodwar anyway.

Re: Vacant Houses
Makes sense I guess for that to be the universal cutoff point for all alliance matters.
