Can we clarify the nature of "teams" a bit ?

Is there a limit on the number of players I can have set to "friend" or tech trade with, for example ?

At what point are teams defined for victory purposes ? For example, can the top 4 players suddenly decide to stop fighting each other and declare themselves a team (and winners) ?

Or do the teams have to annouce themselves at some point ?


I'm ruling the following:

You can set your teammates to friends. Other races must be neutral or enemy. You may tech trade with neutrals or enemies using wolf/lamb or popdropping (but why would you want to support someone not on your team?).

I'm not going to require players to stick with their teams indefinitely (or even to be on a team). The scenario you outlined above I would consider poor sportsmanship. Switching teams should be a strategic decision. Also, consider the possibility that there may be duplication of PRTs in the top four teams. I see the most likely victory scenario will be involving a team of four (or three) that has been working together the longest and has had the best communication.
