This makes multiplayer games go faster as they require you to think carefully about which battles you play manually. Each manual battle that delays the game for others costs a card. In Planetfall we have added a new system for you that that gamifies the number of manual battles, the Combat Cards System.Ĭombat Cards determine the number of times players can use manual combat in a multiplayer game. Always Use Auto Combat (in a live multiplayer game with more than 2 players, this was basically the only way to play).Manual combat only vs AI (Used primarily in Classic Turns).Manual combat only between Human Players.The following options help reduce the amount of battles in game:
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.Manual Combat can make sessions last long and or involve waiting for players, especially in games with more than two human players. (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).
