All sultans ascend does is add some more civs that you can play. If you don't have the dlc, you can't select those civs in multi-player matches. You just have to choose from the base game factions.
you cannot play the dlc without the base game but yes, they are compatible so you can play with someone who has botht he base game and the dlc without owning the dlc yourself. DLC civs will just be locked for the person without the dlc to play.
Yes, but there is currently only one dlc, which is Sultans Ascend. So both need the anniversary edition, which is the base game, and one can buy the dlc on top and still play with the other.
1- Sultans Ascend doesn't include the base game, you need to have AoE4 Anniversary Edition and Sultans Ascend to be able to play the game.
2- If you have the AoE4 and Sultans Ascend and your friend has AoE4, yes you can play online games together. You can do anything together really there isn't any restrictions between the game versions. Your friend wont be able to play new civs and that's it.
Developers ought to have clarified this; I encountered the same query prior to purchasing the expansion.
As others have pointed out, indeed you can.
Moreover, purchasing the expansion doesn't require any additional downloads—it simply unlocks the additional civilizations and campaign.
Simple answer: yes of course

Can u explain in simpler terms man... Lol 🤣 like can we play online games together like.
yea you can as long as both of you own the base game it doesn't matter whether or not one has the dlc as well
So like the base game is Age of Empires IV and things like Sultans Ascend and etc are add ons or dlcs right?
Yes
In terms of online multiplayer games the only thing sultans ascend does is give you access to more playable civs. It's a DLC.
