I brought up this subject some time ago. I was a brand new player, went away for a week and asked the leader of my alliance to look after my domain. Neither of us knew the consequences - that we won't be able to fight together, exchange resources or buy from each other. It's been three months now, she revived her old hero - does it mean that the association was renewed? I know there's a time limit to that (some say 150 days) but with new heroes, does it become 150 days again? I'd like to hear from someone who understands the problem and has some advice how to make the association as short as possible. Thanks :)
