There is no wiki set up for it, among the other Paradox games?

Don't worry one was already promised by TibblesTheCat and they are the ones that a database better than the wiki for Planetfall
Either them or ERICdb will make something but they are players and don't get any access to privileged info from Triumph so they need a little time to gather the info of the spells and units. Wait some days and it will be up and running

Age of Wonders 4 wiki

Now that the wonder is out of the bag, we invite you all to stare at the lovely spells and tomes available for... well, staring... on the Age of Wonders 4 wiki. As always, our aim is to turn the wiki into a source of information for both new and...

forum.paradoxplaza.com

Please be advised that not all content is on the wiki yet and it will be more fleshed out in the coming weeks.

 

[Mohreb]

And i even tried the url https://aow4.paradoxwikis.com/ as i am quite sure how Paradox naming works

 

[Goemoe]

We shouldn't forget Joyce(Tibbles/MinionsArt) Age of Wonders 4 Database

Strange, why Triumph don’t want to cooperate with them - it would be a very beneficial for everyone, I think

They did, both Eric and I got dev support for our app/database!

 

[Ridixo]

I think the only support they didn't get is financial and their work makes me think too someone should change that
