Does anyone know how to make side 1 and 2 allies so that they dont attack each other so that you can play 2 or 3 players against the computer?

Go to triggers. Then, if you have already done so, modify the trigger with a condition of "Mission Loaded". If you didn't, create one. Then, go to the actions. Find "Allies". Then, click on the blue text to change it. When you're done, click OK

Remember that Side 1 allies Side 2 doesn't mean that Side 2 won't attack Side 1 on sight!

Setting up a 2v2 battle is kind of difficult in warfare because when you join the game, you have no idea which players people are going to play as. So if it was Fred, Tom, Bill, and Joe and they want Fred and Tom vs Bill and Joe, they'd be out of luck, because the player arrangements are effectively random.
There's a way to compensate for this though. I had a map one time where four dominions started in the center of the map, one for each player. Those who wanted to be on team A would move to the left side of the map, those who wanted to be on team B would move to the right side of the map. Once the map detected two HQs on the same side, it would ally the players.
