In multiplayer and skirmish games, there are three different alliance modes...
Alliance Modes
When setting up a game, you can choose from one of three alliance modes:

Notes
No alliances
All out war, everyone is your enemy.
Win: Defeat all other players
Lose: You lose when all your factories and droids are destroyed.
Dynamic alliances
Players can choose to create or break alliances at any time during the game.
Win: Defeat all enemies
Lose:You lose when all your factories and droids are destroyed.
Note: If one of your allies survives, they might be able to revive you by donating a truck, but even if your alliance then wins the game you won't be considered a winner because you had already been defeated.
Fixed teams
Players are put in to fixed teams that cannot change during the game.
Win: Defeat all enemy teams
Lose: You lose when your entire team is defeated.
Note: An ally can revive you by donating a truck if you get killed. If your alliance then goes on to win the game you will be treated as a winner – there's no "I" in "team"
Dynamic Alliances
When dynamic alliance mode is active, players can change alliance with other players at any time during the game.
