Team games: Teams vs Alliances

[Septimius Severus]

Hmm, sounds great calahan, but it also sounds just like what might happen in a regular FFA game with open and unrestricted diplomacy allowed. So no real distinction there. I sort of like it the other way around starting as a team but having the option to go solo or disband, and perhaps reform or recombine into a new team. When we think of the word team as it applies to team games we generally are talking about alliances that are "fixed" at the start versus alliances that form during the game as the normal course of diplomacy.
