When you're viewing the details page, there is an option to "disband" it. That should do it.

this brings up an interesting point.

If the alliance data wasn't public, smaller users could manufacture fake alliances as a way to "raise their hackles"--making them appear more dangerous than they really were.

After all, they'd just have to join an alliance and give it a crazy name like "servants of War_Peace".

Without information about the real nature of the alliance, a lot of the less informed players probably wouldn't attack.

heh.

Ah well, that kindof subterfuge isn't possible with the alliance data all being so open. Probably for the best.

I kinda went the other way on that one. I made it public info thinking that people could still create hidden alliances that were real, rather than creating visible "alliances" that were fake. We can't really have both, and I don't feel like re-coding that whole mess, so we'll keep it how it is.

Rossum's child, what you just described is a good thing. Strategy is the key! you have to scare people off, make some like you, and in the end backstab everyone and run fast!

Everyone is trying to control the others mind!

AAH, the voices!
