Needless to say, a lot of the lore describes the two as going to war wherever they encounter one another.

Undeterred, they intend to restart it regardless, starting with the world they are on.
* InsectoidAliens: The Kir'ko are these.
* {{Irony}}: The scene in the trailer where the Vanguard troops are engaged in a stand-off with both the bug-like Kir'ko on one side, and the Amazons on the other has their propaganda poster with the message of "Reaching Together" as the background.
* MiniMecha: The Dvar mainly fight from inside these.
* MookMedic: Every faction has these. Some, like The Assembly's Engineer Analyst, can also revive fallen allies - or revive enemy fallen as allies.
* OneGenderRace: The Amazons became this.
* OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame: The Dvar faction is a pretty traditional rendition, to the point their armour suits have metal beards. As a faction, they are also geared towards slow but heavily armed and armoured units, and excel at production and mining.
* OurWeaponsWillBeBoxyInTheFuture: Played straight with The Vanguard's weapons.
* RestartTheWorld: This is the goal of The Assembly faction, who intend to destroy the entire universe and then rebuild it into perfect order.
* SlaveMooks: The Syndicate's basic infantry are bonded slaves, whose service pays off the debt their family accrued. For many of them, that would take multiple generations.
* ShockAndAwe: A few units have electrical attacks.
* ShortRangeShotgun: Downplayed. While the effective range of shotguns is certainly smaller than that of assault rifles and the like, it is still a ranged attack, and will damage aerial units and the like.
* SpacePirates: The Syndicate would appear to be an evolved version of these.
* SuperSpit: Kir'ko attack at range through spitting poison.
* TakeCover: The introduction of a cover mechanic has been one aspect of the shift to firearms-centered combat.
* TechTree: Every faction has an expansive one.
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Kir'ko used to be completely enslaved by the human Star Union, but eventually rebelled.
* ArtificialZombie: These make up the bulk of The Assembly's troops.
* AttackDrone: The Vanguard excel at supporting their troops with these.
* BladeOnAStick: Some Amazon troops wield energy spears.
* BodyHorror: Many of The Assembly's troops are built with pure "efficiency" in mind, and so possess bodies that are gruesomely mangled and reshaped by the technology in order to fit more weapons or armor inside.
* ChainsawGood: The Assembly's "Engineer Analyst" fights with a buzzsaw.
* CombatTentacles: Assembly's "Engineer Analysts" are essentially undead human torsos that drag themselves on the ground with their human arms, while carrying a buzzsaw, an electric blaster and repair tools in its six robotic tentacles.
* CriticalExistenceFailure: Enemies that have only a sliver of health left are still just as dangerous during their own turn as if they were at full health. Then again, same applies to your own troops.
* {{Cyborg}}: The Assembly faction consists of these.
* DomesticatedDinosaurs: The Amazons have dinosaur riders.
* GatlingGood: Dvar Bastion mech is equipped with dual autocannons.
* GiantFlyer: These are part of the world's aggressive fauna, which is liable to attack any faction.
* HumanPopsicle: According to The Vanguard commander in the trailer, all of their soldiers and colonists spent two hundred years in cryosleep. According to the Amazon commander, that was enough time for the Star Union they were meant to uphold to collapse while they were in transit. Undeterred, they intend to restart it regardless, starting with the world they are on.

''Age Of Wonders: Planetfall'' is an upcoming TurnBasedStrategy game, developed by Triumph Studios and published by Creator/ParadoxInteractive. Unlike the [[VideoGame/AgeOfWonders previous]] [[VideoGame/AgeOfWonders3 games]] in the series, it is no longer [[FantasyVideoGames fantasy]], but wholly [[ScienceFictionVideoGames sci-fi]]. It is also not set in the future of the original games' timeline, like ''VideoGame/EndlessSpace'' to ''VideoGame/EndlessLegend'', but operates in a whole new continuity instead, with the original races not getting carried over.
It set for a release date of August 6th, 2019 on [[UsefulNotes/IBMPersonalComputer PC]] through UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} and Website/GogDotCom. The official website is [[https://www.aow-planetfall.com/ here]].
