Hey all, I'm reading over the rules on allies, the force organization chart, and that whole thing. It says that your army can include one...but if you're playing a larger game it might be two.
Is this another one of those "you need to ask your opponent and can expect a no" sort of thing? Is there a requirement to take two allies?

Both players should be using the least durable units possible, with the house rule that all players remove an article of clothing every time you lose a unit, and take a drink every time you kill one of your opponent's units.
I have no idea which army will be triumphant, but I can assure you that everyone wins.

Allies are Optional. In the same way Heavy Support, Elites, FA, 2nd HQ, and your 4-6th troop choices are optional.
The second FoC(including a 2nd Fortification and Allied detachment) are also optional in the same way.
No opponent permission needed, aside from agreeing to play a game.

No reason why not, other than common sense.
1 HQ + 2 Troops = Allies.
Allied Force = 1 HQ + 2 Troops = 2nd Allies.
By the time you've got your army of 3 factions, you'd be pressed to fill in the spots with anything useful for the 2nd Allied force, so there's not really any point imo.
