Nothing is final yet (June 2021) but it may become the standard multiplayer matchmaking mode.Fusing elements of Civilization-style overworld map management and large-scale real-time strategy battles, the formula for Creative Assembly's Total War series has remained a popular one since the franchise launched with Shogun: Total War back in 2000.
Domination is a new battle mode that will be added in Total War: Warhammer III. Getting the killing blow on a unit doesn't really matter. Whoever scores the most points by doing the most damage to the enemy, wins. This mode was added in Total War: Warhammer II. Free-for-all (FFA): 4 players all fight against each other. Matchmaking battles will never be siege battles, intercept battles or ambush battles, as this would give one side an unfair advantage. There is a limited pool of maps available for matchmaking (see below for a list). Online matchmaking: Players can choose to be randomly matched with someone of roughly equal skill.
The full range of custom battle options is available. They can invite friends, set a password, make the lobby invisible, or allow anyone to join the lobby.
Custom online battle: Players can make a custom battles lobby online. Players can also just play battles against each other online. However, they can still engage in diplomacy, trade and make alliances, if their two factions would normally be able to do so. Head-to-head: A campaign played by two people against each other. Co-op campaign: A campaign played by two people together in a permanent military alliance. In this mode, players can set enemy AI armies to be controlled by their friend, or they can assign some of their own units to be controlled by their friend. In all games, players can play against all other factions from that game and previous games, even if they don't own them. In Total War: Warhammer III, players can use any faction that they own from the entire series. In Total War: Warhammer II, players can use any faction that they own from the first or second game, or first/second game DLC. In Total War: Warhammer, players can use any faction that they own from the first game or first game DLC.
