[R&F] Multiplayer teams and the new alliances

[Turrdy]

Does anybody already know how the new alliances are going to work in multiplayer teams? In vanilla you are allied to all your team members from turn 1 of the game. Can you now choose what alliance you want to have, or are those specialized alliances only available once you have the tech/civic to do so? Or do multiplayer teams now start without alliances but only with declared friendship?

We are going to have to wait for the release. I doubt any consideration was given as to how R&F will play as multiplayer. Previous releases have shown they don't really test the game multiplayer; adding overpowered civs, unbalancing wonders and untested map scripting that causes unplayable spawns.

We will wait and see...but Teams are hard coded alliances, so I would lean forward to say that Teams will get all the alliance benefits in RF....but I've been wrong before

Well, maybe they'll do a multiplayer-live-stream. That'd be cool!
