Only 1 Ally but alliance shows3

[Naomi's]

H, I only have one ally but my alliance says 3, any idea why?

[vitus79]

looks like u got 2 henchmen, they come from game once you master any area to level 3 and other goals. go visit ur alle and check the bottom, there should be something like 1 ally, 2 henchmen

edit: grunts in mw

Sometimes when you add someone the game glitchs and counts as two so that could be a possibility. Then you count as your own ally. So that makes three.
