Council's job at an alliance

[I'm Gugs]

I was wondering what is the council's roll in the alliance. Also what are the benefits of being council instead of just being an ally. Lastly how many councils are recommended to have for an alliance, assuming there are 50 members.

It gives a 'feel good' feeling.

I think it depends on the alliance- in my alliance we generally like for council to monitor the activity level of allies, offer advise on strategy and base design, donate a lot, and keep the chat entertaining, while also monitoring to make sure it is kept respectful and light hearted. Other alliances may not necessarily have expectations of council members. As council you can promote, demote, and kick out allies (but not the leader or other council members). You can also accept or decline requests to join the alliance if it is set to invite only. Council:ally ratio is also personal to the alliance. For the alliance I am in (Nations League), we have 4 council and 30 members (after cleaning out inactives). Right now, this serves us fine, and 2 of us are most active, monitoring the entire alliance. Some alliances may decide to split up monitoring of allies, for example, 1 council monitors 10 specific allies; but I think that just depends on how the alliance sees the role of their council.

So it's just a title?

Sorry for not responding sooner.
So the councils only can kick and promote allies? I thought they had more benefits like being able to change the description of the alliance or the required medals.
And about putting the allinace in invite mode, i dont know how you can invite players to the alliance.
I'm at gunpowder age and this seem like very basic questions

Sorry I also didn't notice your comment sooner! Council can't make any of those alliance related changes (just promote, kick allies). The leader makes all of the other changes you mentioned. I actually saw and responded to another post of yours about the invite only question- I hope that I did answer the question ok. If not, let me know and I'll try to clarify
