Re: Diplomacy ethics
It seems to me that there should be 3 sets of rules:
Binding: Actual penalties for breaking agreements
Default: Reputation only
Treachery Encouraged: Whatever you like, as nasty as you want. Dirty trick encouraged. Behavior here shouldn't be considered in other games.
I'm not sure which of those last two would be considered "Machavellian". I suspect different people might have different answers.
