*BUMP*
This is a great idea and should be easy to mod...
Just add a "Team" or "Pantheon" column when choosing nations for a game, in it you can insert a value between 1 and 9 (for easy storing) and it will be added into your pretender information or some other static information on the server, when a certain player completely dies (with the message) the game will check the "Pantheon" values of all the players, if they are all the same value (as in, they are all allied) they all get the victory message and win.

Is the victory message really that important? Why not just start up a game asking for teams. I bet plenty of people would try it.

yes, tha could be ... but my idea was to set a game with allied victory based on control of vicotry points but:

1. no alliance set in the beginning
2. no score graphs avaible

so, it could be hard to understand if a team is winning ...

good play

When there is nobody left who isn't a teammate then your team wins.

Use --scoredump when the game is started and the host will get a score file (browser viewable) every time the host processes. If a master password is used then the host can also go into the game to check just to be sure
