In this phase, the human players gain victory points collectively—that is, the humans have one shared victory point score—based on the regions their troops occupy. This works much as it does in the standard mode, with these modifications:

CONTROL: When determining who controls a region in a cooperative game, all human players’ troops are added together and compared to the AI faction’s sum of troops.

DOMINATION: When determining whether a faction dominates a region, each human player’s troops are considered independently. That is, even if there are no AI troops in a region, if two different human factions’ troops are present, no faction dominates that region.

At the end of this phase, check the scenario’s mission conditions. If either side has achieved one of it's conditions, that side wins! For mission conditions based on victory points, resolve ties as in standard mode.
