MP: Primordial Cake - [Game In Progress]

So basically in most games if you break the NAP you are somewhat konwn as a "NAP breaker" in that game and others. Per your rules there really shouldn't be a penalty like that for breaking the NAP. Is that a correct assessment?

Pretty much. However, most people take play it game-to-game. I personally don't try to keep track of who has been untrustworthy in other games.

Just so we are all on the same page then, trade agreements are binding but any diplomatic agreement is only valid as long as it is mutually beneficial to both players.

Or to put it another way:-

If you have a NAP-3 agreement with an adjacent nation, it is worthless to you apart from your own assesment of how likely it is that the agreement will be honoured and you really should never expect to receive any warning that the NAP is about to end or even start for that matter.

I don't have any problem with that as long as everyone understands. Whatever goes on in this game should stay in this game. It might be worth making that clear in the opening post.
