Victory Conditions: Last one standing (or whoever is willing to go on with the late game grind)
Diplomacy Policy: All trades are expected to be completed. It's just good sportsmanship. Everything else? Go nuts. Just keep in mind that breaking treaties may or may not earn you a reputation, both in game and out. You can also choose whether or not to keep treaties secret or announce them publically in the thread (or via message system). Doesn't do anything, of course, except makes betrayals known (and thus attaches a cost to breaking treaties). Coalitions against one nation are also allowed (and tbh, encouraged when necessary [again, sharing of intel]).
Also, you are allowed to pick LA Ermor or LA R'lyeh, just remember that doing so will likely make you an automatic diplomatic pariah. No one likes bordering those pop-killing dominions and all. And do be aware that you will also likely die from the micromanagement, so don't take these up if you're the faint of heart.
Also, the more thematic and IC you are for in-game and diplomatic messagings, the more awesome points you win (redeemable for absolutely nothing).
Also, what are considered exploits and really blatant cheese (free Ettins from the Atlantean City, sending 50 items to a nation who just put up Forge of the Ancients, etc.) is
very much frowned upon.
Also, I personally prefer to remove score graphs from a game, because it actively rewards scouting and diplomacy versus a game where it doesn't. It being late age and scouts being abundant, it should be quite easy for everyone to maintain large scout networks. It also incentivizes the use of patrollers like Watchers to keep your army size, etc, under wraps, and of remote scouting spells like Astral Windows. It just in my opinion adds a new dynamic to the game (though I can be easily overruled if the supermajority [66%] prefer score graphs on).
