Alliance Technology is one of the most important shared progression systems in Last War: Survival.
Unlike personal research, Alliance Technology benefits the entire alliance. Completed technologies can improve development, economy, mobility, rally performance, or combat strength for alliance members.
Because the resources invested by many players are combined into one progression system, good Alliance Tech management can create a much larger return than random donations.
What Is Alliance Technology?
Alliance Technology is a shared research system funded by alliance members through donations.
Once a technology is completed, its bonuses apply to eligible alliance members automatically.
Alliance Technology can improve areas such as:
- Construction and research speed
- Training and development
- Resource production and gathering
- March and rally performance
- Troop Attack
- Troop Defense
- Troop HP
- Alliance mobility and territory-related advantages
- Other alliance-wide combat and utility bonuses
The exact technologies and available branches can change as the game progresses and new content is introduced, so priorities should always be based on the technologies currently available to your alliance.
Why Alliance Tech Is So Important
Alliance Technology has a unique advantage: one investment benefits many players at the same time.
A completed combat technology, for example, does not strengthen only the player who donated. The alliance receives the shared benefit.
This makes Alliance Tech especially valuable because:
- Progress is shared.
- Bonuses are permanent once unlocked.
- Active alliances generate research progress much faster.
- Combat bonuses become increasingly valuable as competition increases.
- Development bonuses accelerate the growth of every member.
A well-managed alliance therefore gains value from every active member, not only from its strongest players.
How Alliance Tech Donations Work
Alliance members contribute to the currently selected technology through the Alliance Technology interface.
Donations provide:
- Alliance Technology progress
- Personal Alliance Contribution
- Progress toward donation rankings and rewards
Resource-based donations should normally be the default way to contribute.
Recommended Technology
Alliance officers can designate a technology as Recommended.
Donating to the Recommended Technology provides a higher contribution reward than donating to a non-recommended technology.
Because of this, alliance members should normally follow the alliance's selected Recommended Technology instead of donating randomly across the tree.
Best practice: If your alliance has selected a Recommended Technology, donate there unless an officer has specifically instructed members otherwise.
Daily Donation Routine
Alliance Technology rewards consistency.
Players should make their available resource donations every day rather than allowing donation opportunities to remain unused.
A simple routine is:
- Open the Alliance Technology screen.
- Check the current Recommended Technology.
- Use your available resource donations.
- Donate to the Recommended Technology.
- Repeat when additional donation opportunities become available.
Resource donation opportunities regenerate over time, so checking only once per day may leave some opportunities unused.
Why Daily Donations Matter
A single player missing donations may not appear important. An entire alliance missing donations every day is a major loss of progression.
The most important rule is:
Consistency beats occasional large pushes.
Resource Donations vs. Diamond Donations
Resource Donations
Resource donations should normally be your default.
They allow you to contribute consistently without spending a premium currency that can be used for many other progression systems.
Use resource donations whenever available.
Diamond Donations
Diamond donations can accelerate Alliance Tech, but diamonds are a much more valuable personal resource and should normally be used selectively.
Consider diamond donations when:
- A critical technology is very close to completion.
- Your alliance needs a specific technology for an important event.
- The alliance is pushing a major milestone.
- The additional progress has a clear strategic benefit.
For most players, especially free-to-play and low-spending players:
Resource donations first. Diamond donations only when the benefit justifies the cost.
Alliance Technology Categories
Alliance Technology generally covers several broad areas. Exact branches can change with game progression, updates, and seasonal content.
Development
Development technologies improve the speed and efficiency of account progression.
Typical benefits can include:
- Construction speed
- Research speed
- Training speed
- Other development-related bonuses
Development Priority
For a developing alliance, prioritize technologies that improve:
- Construction speed
- Research speed
- Training or other important progression speeds
- Other useful development bonuses
Development bonuses have a compounding effect because faster member progression creates a stronger alliance over time.
Resource and Economy Technologies
Some Alliance Tech options improve economic efficiency, such as:
- Resource production
- Resource gathering
- Economy-related bonuses
- Other resource efficiency
Economic technology is especially useful when the alliance is still developing or members are resource constrained.
However, economy should not automatically remain the highest priority forever. As an alliance becomes more developed, combat and strategic technologies generally become more important for competitive play.
Combat / War Technologies
Combat technologies improve the fighting ability of alliance members.
They can include bonuses related to:
- Troop Attack
- Troop Defense
- Troop HP
- Rally performance
- March capacity
- Garrison or defensive performance
- Healing or recovery
- Other combat-related effects
These technologies become increasingly important as an alliance enters more competitive content.
Territory, Mobility, and Strategic Technologies
Some Alliance Tech options support movement, territory, defensive positions, or other strategic mechanics.
These can be especially valuable during:
- Territory conflicts
- Capital battles
- Desert Storm
- Canyon Storm
- SvS
- Seasonal warfare
- Other alliance-focused combat events
Do not judge these technologies only by their Power increase. A mobility or strategic bonus can have much more practical value during an event than its raw Power increase suggests.
Recommended Alliance Tech Priority
There is no single perfect order for every alliance. A new developing alliance has different needs from a highly competitive endgame alliance.
Phase 1 — Alliance Foundation
For a newer or developing alliance, prioritize technologies that accelerate overall growth.
Recommended focus:
- Construction speed
- Research speed
- Important development bonuses
- Useful economy/resource bonuses
- Required technologies for unlocking the next important branch
The objective is to make the entire alliance develop faster.
Phase 2 — Balanced Development
Once the alliance has established its development foundation, begin shifting toward a balanced technology strategy.
Recommended focus:
- Finish important development milestones.
- Improve useful economy technologies where they still provide value.
- Begin pushing combat technologies.
- Improve rally and march-related bonuses.
- Unlock technologies required for important alliance content.
Avoid spending the entire alliance budget on low-impact economic upgrades simply because they are available.
Phase 3 — Competitive Alliance
For a mature alliance that actively competes in PvP, rallies, territory battles, and major alliance events, combat becomes increasingly important.
Prioritize:
- Troop Attack
- Troop HP
- Troop Defense
- Rally bonuses
- March capacity
- Garrison/defensive bonuses
- Mobility and event-specific strategic bonuses
- Remaining development improvements
The exact order between Attack, Defense, and HP depends on the available technology, alliance composition, and the type of content you participate in.
Phase 4 — Endgame Optimization
Once major development and combat foundations are established, optimize around the alliance's actual goals.
For a competitive war alliance, prioritize:
- High-level combat bonuses
- Rally bonuses
- March capacity
- Garrison bonuses
- Mobility
- Event-specific advantages
- Technologies required for seasonal progression
For a more casual alliance, a balanced mixture of development, economy, combat, and utility may be better.
Recommended Technology by Alliance Type
Casual / Development-Focused Alliance
- Construction
- Research
- Training/development
- Economy
- Basic combat
- Utility and strategic technologies
Competitive PvP Alliance
- Development foundation
- Combat Attack
- Combat HP
- Combat Defense
- Rally bonuses
- March capacity
- Garrison/defensive bonuses
- Mobility
- Event-specific technologies
Event-Focused Alliance
If your alliance is heavily focused on events such as Desert Storm, Canyon Storm, SvS, or seasonal warfare, strategic technologies can move higher in priority.
Focus on:
- Rally performance
- March capacity
- Garrison strength
- Mobility
- Territory-related advantages
- Relevant combat stats
The correct priority depends on the event and the mechanics available at the time.
R4 and R5 Alliance Tech Management
Alliance officers have a much more important role than simply selecting the next technology.
1. Always Have a Clear Recommended Technology
Members should immediately know where their donations should go.
Avoid situations where:
- No technology is recommended.
- Several technologies are being pushed at the same time.
- Members are unsure what to donate to.
One clear target creates better coordination.
2. Change the Recommendation Immediately After Completion
When the selected technology finishes, choose the next priority promptly.
Use this simple system:
Complete → Select next priority → Announce → Continue donations
3. Communicate Changes
If your alliance uses Discord or alliance chat, announce major technology changes.
Example:
Alliance Tech priority: Cooperative Research → Combat Attack next.
4. Avoid Random Tech Progression
Do not let individual members decide their own technology priorities. The alliance should progress toward a shared objective.
Random donations spread progress across too many technologies and delay important milestones.
5. Consider Technology Requirements
Sometimes the best technology cannot be researched immediately because another technology or progression requirement must be completed first.
When this happens:
- Identify the required technology.
- Complete the minimum necessary requirements.
- Return to the main priority immediately.
How to Choose Between Two Technologies
When deciding what to research next, ask:
1. Does it benefit every member?
Alliance-wide benefits are generally more valuable than narrow benefits.
2. Does it accelerate progression?
Construction and research speed can generate value repeatedly over a long period.
3. Does it improve combat?
Attack, HP, Defense, rally, and march bonuses become increasingly valuable for competitive alliances.
4. Is it required to unlock something important?
A lower-value technology may still be worth completing if it unlocks a much stronger branch.
5. Is an important event approaching?
Temporary priorities can be justified when a major alliance event is close.
6. How much does the next level cost?
A technology that provides a small improvement for a huge investment may be less efficient than a cheaper technology with a stronger practical impact.
Cooperative Construction and Research
Development technologies that improve construction and research deserve special attention because they affect long-term progression.
Cooperative Construction
Construction speed affects the time required for building upgrades.
This is particularly valuable during:
- Headquarters progression
- Major building upgrades
- Development phases
- Large alliance-wide growth periods
Cooperative Research
Research speed works similarly.
Faster research allows members to:
- Complete more technologies
- Reach important combat upgrades sooner
- Unlock progression requirements faster
- Improve their accounts continuously
For a developing alliance, construction and research speed are excellent early priorities.
Combat Technology Priorities
Once the alliance has a solid development foundation, combat technology becomes increasingly important.
Troop Attack
Attack directly improves offensive combat performance and is valuable for:
- PvP
- Rallies
- Boss damage
- Territory battles
- SvS
- Major alliance events
Troop HP
HP improves survivability and can be especially valuable in prolonged fights where surviving long enough to deal additional damage matters.
Troop Defense
Defense improves durability against incoming damage and becomes increasingly valuable in serious PvP and defensive battles.
Attack vs HP vs Defense
Do not assume one stat is always superior.
A practical approach is:
- Push the strongest available combat technology.
- Keep the main combat stats reasonably balanced.
- Prioritize technologies that unlock higher-value branches.
- Adjust priorities based on the battles your alliance actually fights.
Rally and March Technologies
Rally-related bonuses deserve special attention in active alliances.
Technologies affecting:
- Rally strength
- Rally capacity
- March capacity
- Rally-related combat stats
can provide significant value during coordinated attacks.
Why March Capacity Matters
More troops in a march can increase:
- Rally contribution
- Damage
- Defensive strength
- PvE performance
For competitive alliances, march capacity can therefore become one of the most valuable technologies available.
Garrison and Defensive Technologies
Defensive technologies become particularly important when an alliance regularly needs to defend:
- Alliance Centers
- Important territory
- Strategic buildings
- Capitals
- Event objectives
- Seasonal structures
These may be less important for a development-focused alliance but extremely valuable for a war-focused alliance.
Mobility Technologies
Movement-related bonuses can look less impressive than raw Attack or HP.
However, mobility can be extremely useful in coordinated alliance warfare by improving:
- Reinforcement timing
- Rally timing
- Territory response
- Defensive rotations
- Event positioning
- Offensive coordination
For alliances heavily involved in battlefield events, mobility can therefore have much greater practical value than its raw Power increase suggests.
Alliance Tech and Events
Alliance Technology should not be managed in isolation.
Before major events, consider whether certain technologies provide a strategic advantage.
Examples include:
- Desert Storm
- Canyon Storm
- SvS
- Seasonal warfare
- Capital battles
- Major rally events
A technology that is normally medium priority may become high priority when it directly improves the alliance's performance in an upcoming event.
Do not completely destroy your long-term technology plan for one event. Use temporary event priorities only when the expected benefit is significant.
Alliance Tech and Personal Progression
Alliance Tech should complement, not replace, personal progression.
Players should continue developing:
- Heroes
- Hero skills
- Equipment
- Research
- Troops
- Drone
- Base
- Resources
Alliance Tech provides a shared foundation that makes every member stronger.
Common Alliance Tech Mistakes
Random Donations
Members donate to whatever technology they personally prefer.
Problem: Progress becomes fragmented.
Solution: Follow the Recommended Technology.
No Recommended Technology
Leadership forgets to select the next priority.
Problem: Members lose the donation bonus and alliance progress becomes less coordinated.
Solution: Always maintain one clear priority.
Spreading Donations Across Too Many Technologies
Several technologies are partially completed at the same time.
Problem: Important bonuses take longer to unlock.
Solution: Concentrate alliance donations on one priority whenever possible.
Ignoring Development Tech
An alliance rushes combat technology from the beginning.
Problem: Members develop more slowly, reducing the long-term strength of the alliance.
Solution: Establish a strong development foundation first.
Staying on Economy Tech Too Long
An alliance continues investing heavily in economy even after members are well developed.
Problem: Combat and strategic opportunities are delayed.
Solution: Gradually transition toward combat and event-focused technology.
Ignoring Combat Tech
A highly developed alliance neglects shared combat bonuses.
Problem: Strong individual accounts can still have weaker collective combat performance.
Solution: Make combat a major mid- and late-game priority.
Spending Too Many Diamonds
Members use diamonds for normal donations.
Problem: Valuable personal resources are consumed for relatively small gains.
Solution: Use normal resource donations as the default.
Ignoring Alliance Goals
Technology is selected without considering what the alliance actually does.
Problem: The alliance invests in bonuses it rarely uses.
Solution: Match the tech plan to the alliance's identity.
Best Practices for Alliance Members
Daily
- Check the Recommended Technology.
- Complete available resource donations.
- Avoid donating randomly.
- Check alliance announcements.
Weekly
- Review your Alliance Contribution.
- Use contribution rewards efficiently.
- Check whether alliance priorities have changed.
- Prepare resources for major technology pushes.
During Events
- Follow the alliance's event-specific technology instructions.
- Prioritize relevant strategic bonuses when leadership calls for them.
- Coordinate rallies and defenses.
Best Practices for R4/R5 Officers
A strong officer system should follow a simple process:
Step 1 — Set the Goal
Decide whether the alliance currently needs:
- Development
- Combat
- Territory
- Rally strength
- Event preparation
Step 2 — Choose One Priority
Select the highest-value available technology.
Step 3 — Mark It Recommended
Give members one clear donation target.
Step 4 — Communicate
Tell the alliance what is being prioritized and why.
Step 5 — Monitor Progress
Do not change priorities randomly.
Step 6 — Complete and Reassess
When the technology finishes, choose the next target based on the alliance's current needs.
Recommended Alliance Technology Order
Alliance Technology priorities change as an alliance grows. The goal is not to max every category equally, but to unlock useful bonuses and focus resources where they provide the most value.
1. New Alliance
Priority Order:
Development → Economy → Construction → Research
Focus on building the alliance's basic technology foundation and unlocking the systems needed for further progression.
2. Growing Alliance
Priority Order:
Research → Construction → Basic Combat → Rally
Once the basic foundation is established, begin shifting resources toward technologies that improve overall account progression and alliance combat potential.
3. Mid-Game Alliance
Priority Order:
Combat → Rally → March Bonuses → Development
Combat technology becomes increasingly valuable as members become stronger and alliance activities become more competitive.
4. Competitive Alliance
Priority Order:
Combat → Rally → March → Garrison
Competitive alliances should prioritize technologies that directly improve battle performance and coordinated attacks.
5. War-Focused Alliance
Priority Order:
Combat → Rally → Mobility → Garrison
For alliances focused heavily on war, combat strength and the ability to coordinate attacks and movement should take priority.
6. Event-Focused Alliance
Priority Order:
Event-Relevant Technology → Combat → Rally
If the alliance is preparing for a major alliance event, temporary event priorities can take precedence over the normal technology order.
7. Mature Alliance
Priority Order:
High-Value Combat → Rally → Strategic Utility → Remaining Technology
Once the major priorities are developed, continue investing in high-value technologies while completing useful secondary upgrades.
This is a framework rather than a rigid rule. Adjust the order when a specific technology is required for progression or an important event.

Final Recommendation
Alliance Technology should be treated as a shared long-term investment, not simply another research menu.
For most alliances:
Early Game → prioritize development and progression speed.
Mid Game → build a balance between development and combat.
Late Game → shift heavily toward combat, rally, march, garrison, and strategic technologies.
Competitive / Event Periods → temporarily prioritize technologies that directly improve the alliance's performance in the relevant content.
For individual members, the most important rule is simple:
Donate consistently to the Recommended Technology and let alliance leadership manage the overall research direction.
For R4/R5 officers:
Create one clear technology priority, communicate it, and make the entire alliance work toward the same goal.
A coordinated alliance will progress its technology tree faster, develop stronger members, and gain much more value from every donation.
