You can run this two different ways, depending on your mood.
Version 1: Get the Artist and Illness out first, then cast the Alliance. However much mana you put into the Join Forces ability, each player gets that many tokens, which will all die immediately thanks to the illness, letting you steal twice that amount of life.
Version 2: Cast the Alliance of Arms first, and the other two later, when you can kill your opponent(s) in one volley of life stealing.

This is far more sinister than Sengir Autocrat ever was.

As an added bonus, in games larger than 1v1, your teammate(s) and/or opponent(s) can put mana into the Join Forces ability as well. For those games, I recommend option 2, though I doubt any opponent will be paying mana for you to kill them after the first time you pull this on them.
