![]() ![]() A boring kind of warfare for me but extremely effective. ![]() In addition to this, I remember watching a guy whose strategy was to recruit heavy Spartan units, often considered out of the metagame, heavy artillery, deployable defenses.just imagine what followed. In regard of pikes factions, they can still be deathly in the proper hands, especially if they're paired with a good cavalry micro and units such as Agrianian Axemen and Mercenary Thracian Warriors which can massacrate off-guard enemies. I think it has an amazing unit roster (axes with high AP, solid melee infantry, meatshields, camels, shock and melee cavalry, spears.most of them with a good cost-benefit outcome). ![]() Talking more about the rosters than campaign possibilities, and given that I'm not sure what are the MP's most valued factions, I'd say that Saba receives few love, since Kush has all the attention in the Desert Kingdoms DLC. I feel myself like a cavalry commander, so I couldn't enjoy with them at all. I remember watching a Spaniard youtuber getting away with an Ardiaei army in MP (lots, lots of armour piercing damage + a little but strong core of hoplites). So what are YOUR favourite underrated faction? The Ardiaei aren't anywhere near the best battle faction in the game but they are WAY above what people rate them as. I do agree that the Ardiaei have some of the worst cavalry and melee units in the game, HOWEVER, their illyrian Hoplites are very good units with 105 armour, as high as royal spartans.Īnd if you invade Eprius on turn one and DON'T replace their hoplite barracks you can recruit illyrian hoplites by turn two, basically meaning your early game weakness is null and void. When the enemy run out of reach just put a cheap marine unit as bait and watch as the foolish foe charges at your one helpless unit while you tear them apart with your tower ships. You can break down enemy walls and sail your tower ships to pick away at their land units. The Ardiaei is the only barbarian faction to use Greek ships and they use the barbarian port type instead of the Greek one, meaning on their FIRST port they have access to Tetreres and on the second port upgrade, the Ardiaei have access to tower ships, artillery ships and the massive Penteres ship type. I think a faction that gets ignored by the community a fair bit is the Ardiaei. Well anyway i'm here to bring to attention Underrated factions and i'm curious to which playable factions you find underrated? So experiment away, and find your faction that suits your playing style.Are people other than me still playing Rome 2? Whichever you choose, each faction brings a completely different gameplay experience to Total War: ROME II™. Some rely on client-nations or vassals to boost their economic growth, while others are more trade-focussed. Some factions rely more on mercenaries for their military might some prefer to train their own. Players would be wise to keep an eye on such individuals…They play a key role throughout the campaign which can make the difference of winning and losing. You’ll direct the actions of famous characters from history, and if they’re not out in the field commanding your armies, they’ll be politicking in the senate house, or its cultural equivalent. Players will need to work with – and in certain circumstances against – their faction’s internal political system. Some factions are split into a number of playable families, which bring further unique benefits to their base faction traits. ![]() Each will have its own dilemmas to face and different styles of army to manage. Each brings unique commercial, military and political strengths, its own agents and political system, and three tech trees representing civic, military and engineering disciplines. The playable factions represent key powers within the Greco-Roman, Barbarian, and Eastern cultures, and each offers a notably different and deeper form of gameplay experience from those in previous Total War games. This page is your source for background information about each of the playable factions: their starting position on the campaign map, their civic and military focus, and some of their key battlefield units.Each faction has their own special attribute. Ranging from the Spanish coast to the far-flung, exotic kingdoms of the east, the campaign map for Total War: ROME II™ is breath-taking in scope, and a study in detail and variety. ![]()
