What are my diplomatic options in multiplayer?
A. You can set your Diplomatic Status with another player to any of the following: Enemy: Self-explanatory. Neutral: Your units will not attack a Neutral player. Ally: Same as Neutral, but you also share Fog of War information. In addition, you can play as a Team. Set before the game starts, a Team is effectively one side controlled by two or more players. They share the same color, species, and resources. Unit control is also shared– units that are currently selected by your teammates are marked so that you won’t accidentally override your teammate’s orders. * Note that you can set Diplomatic status for Observers, as well.
