If you think your Alliance can provide you what you need (or want), then there's no issue with it. And yes, it's 30 maximum. Alliance starts out at 15 but gains more slot for additional members as an alliance increases rank.

And Rapier Master is only obtainable from Amalgamation of cards from Goddess Worship (Rapier Princess x Royal Rapier) which is in alliance. Her multihit skill can help you overkill AWs or FAWs and thereby giving more points. It is a bit tricky to form a MH team tho as you'd need a lot of buffs for her to make her multihit reach max damage. And Raven is obtainable only thru ABB this month, so good luck.

Try to buy the other 2 Yggdrasils and Magic School, as soon as you can. Please refer here for order of priority in building structures in the future., especially for the jewel costed ones.

As for the AWCores, you can earn them thru constant fighting against AW/FAWs, as round battle reward and as RR rewards. (And it's 4000 cores per UR ticket, not 1500.)
