Those players can navigate to the “Available Sessions” tab in the Online Multiplayer menu and select Join With Code to enter the code and join the game. They can then send that code to prospective players.
The host can copy the Join Code at the top of the screen in the lobby. After adding them all as friends, the host can select Invite Friends from the lobby and manually invite each player. Age of Wonders Planetfall is the new strategy game from Triumph Studios. They’ll need those players’ Paradox IDs, which can be found on the bottom right of the Main Menu screen. The host can add the other players as friends. Here are the methods for putting together a Private multiplayer group: After the host has set up a lobby, there are a couple of ways for them to invite players. Joining a Private multiplayer match is a little more complex. There, players can select from a list of games with room for them. Public lobbies are joined by selecting Online Multiplayer from the Main Menu and then switching to the “Available Sessions” tab. In coop play, it's generally a good idea to station a scout at your ally's important cities so you can atleast help them with your spells during important battles.Lobbies can be set up as Private or Public. (These appear to be the "Wonders" in AoW4 - no idea how event battles work.) The only exception is explorable dungeons that can only be directly engaged with a single party/stack. The new Marauder system looks interesting in AoW4, but we'll have to see how well it scales.Īs long as there are allied units(even a single scout) adjacent to battles(the hexes surrounding the _attacked_ hex), all allied players will participate in battle. This isn't an official game mode(I wish it was), but scaling in Planetfall did make it an interesting option if you set marauders, dwellings, and invasions to maximum hostility at a slower game speed.
"Allied Victory" is a game setting that allows players on the same team or alliance to win together once all other players(ai or human) are defeated/a victory condition is achieved.Ĭonversely, if you want to do a coop survival game against a super hostile world without enemy 'players', you'll need to disable allied victory if you want to be allied with your coop partner(s).
