I'll team with anyone and I'll take the weaker nation in the pair

actually, jomon is the only possible teamate for at least one other nation too, which is why i am advocating strongly for the disallowing of that one other nation *cough* Hinnom *cough* *cough*

Zeldor, we can already see how at least half the current people/teams claiming nations are going for the very powerful teamed with a very underpowerd. It is like I said, due to the plasticity of gold/gems and power, there isn't a whole lot of disadvantage to forcing very powerful nations to team with underpowered ones. Unless we disallow inter-team trading, there is simply no way to find a bright line where a 'tactic' becomes an 'abuse'. Starting nations at opposite sides helps alleviate the problem, but there is no possible way to police the abuse of the team system where one nation is just the ***** of the other; we simply can't define where the inter-team cooperation and trading becomes one just being the other's *****.
