    It's exceedingly difficult to recruit high end players for an alliance at this point. However, there are plenty of PVE-only alliances that could use players: try the alliance section of the forum, post your details (or check the alliances currently recruiting), and you should get some bites. Of course, many of them will want you to use Line, but that's kind of the cost of high level play today.

    Don't make your own. Join one. There are tons of alliances who need players of all experience levels.

    Only reason to make your own alliance is if you have special friends with whom you play the game. For example, my husband and I (and some random stranger who joined our alliance) are the only ones in our Clan at Clash of Clans, so we send each other soldiers and love letters all the time! We'll never win top clan, but we're having fun.

    Hi Andre,

    Our alliance is PVE-only. We consistently place T50-100 without PVP requirements (but we do place T150-250 in PVP). PM if you are interested and I will ask the other Commanders if we have a spot.

    "is it worth making an alliance nowadays"

    Yes. Always. Something is better than nothing.

    Daily iso from 1 alliancemate (yourself) beats no daily iso.

    Placing in the top 10,000 allainces beats no alliance rewards at all.

    No, not all top pve alliances expect you to play pvp.

    Post your expectations and describe your history over in the alliances subforum, look for "Single player looking ..." thread.

    Or, start your own alliance. Again, its better than nothing.

    Honestly, probably not.

    There are enough alliances at all tiers of play and playstyles to accomodate all players. Even if your more interested in running the alliance, its probably easier and more efficent to join and existing one and take over for an existing commander.

    The only reason to make a new alliance is if you need it as a temporary alliance space for player buy clubs pve merc teams and you don't want to interrupt an existing alliance structure.

    Otherwise your just wasting 5k iso. Not a major penalty either way.

    Starting (and maintaining) an alliance is infinitely harder than joining an existing alliance. Don't try to start your own. There are a bunch of alliances out there who are constantly recruiting, and you'll be able to find one that fits you. Many of them are alliance families with multiple alliances, with different focuses and/or expectations.

    You just need to get looped into them, and the alliance forum is the best way to get started with that, unless you're on LINE.

    It's true that you should always be in an alliance, but that doesn't mean you have to start one. Just join a public alliance while you try to find a good PvE alliance.

    Unless they upped it, it's only 2500. Half price!
