      I think alignment and morale should be discussed before starting a new campaign. Your guidelines are good if the campaign gets the "good" or even "neutral to good" flag. When you happen to support all alignments for your party or play an outright evil or neutral to evil campaign, it shouldn't be too punishing if the party plays the previously chosen alignment correctly.
