A PBEM Team game works pretty much the same as an offline team game. Two or more civs share maps and technologies. Teammate AI's will accept one-way trades for anything, even if they have only one of the resource. You are not guarunteed to start next to your teammate, and . That's about it.

So, if my friend and I do a teammate game against another team, we share technologies? If both of us reasearch the same tech, does it come twice as fast?
Can you control the other teammates units?
If I go to war, does my teammate automatically go to war with the same team?
Do you share scores?
Thx

It depends on the map, in the MP maps you will start together -- Inland Sea, Ring, Team Battleground. In the SP maps you may or may not -- Pangaea, Continents, etc.
Yes.
No.
Yes, but with a catch. In a team game the costs of technologies are increased depending on the number of players on the team. I'm not sure if it's a direct ratio or not, but generally it will take you just as long to research 1 tech in a team game as it will in a SP. However, if you have a player or players who aren't teching very well, your overall tech will slow down -- you can't neglect GNP.
Also, because of this, everyone on your team should research the same tech. If one player researches Bronze Working while another researches Animal Husbandry, you'll take twice as long to get both.

No, unless your teammate moves his units into your land and hits the gift button.
Yes.
Yes, the team score is the total of all the players on the team -- the team with the highest score will always be listed first on the scores list, so it's easy to see if you're ahead or behind.

Most but not all wonders are shared, here is what we've tested:
Stonehenge - yes
Pyramids - yes
Great Wall - yes
Hanging Gardens - yes
Taj Mahal - no
Colossus - yes
Chichen Itza - yes
and I think Pentagon was a no but is was awhile ago that we played that game.
anyone else know any others?
