I totally agree that if you are seriously doublecrossed you are unlikely to ever enter into an "honest" alliance again with that player.

The backstabber will earn a reputation.

However, these games are an extention of ourselves, and if you are "playing the part" of an agresive unscrupulous race and you enter into an alliance, you will break that alliance:-

i) when it suits you; or

ii) when it will get you most gains.

If I allied through choice or necessity to a "Romulan" I would definitely watch my back, and if a backstab came I would take it as part of the game.

If however a backstab came from an "honourable" source a true Klingon revenge would be due!

Personnally, I can't forsee a situation where I would backstab, but wouldn't it make an interesting subplot to a game if 2 of eight races were notified at between turns 50 and 80 that a neighbouring race had desecrated a holy place and they must go to war!

It's possible, definitely possible!
