as far as I read in the guild forums that alliances are not easily given. most guilds have only one or none at all and 5 was the most I've seen so far.
So I'dont think any new guild will qualifiy for an alliance just because of similarities in race/class.
...besides is my guild-idea not the most socialising/benefiting one to say the least ;)
