![]() Syrian Flats, Grassy Flatlands)Ĭriteria for Top Tier Factions: These factions can compete with Rome as equals in battle. * DISCLAIMER: for my rankings, I'm assuming that the experience-level is roughly equal for the person using each faction *ġ) I base my rankings on Multiplayer 1 vs 1's.ģ) I'm assuming that the choice of map is flat with zero or minimal hiding places (i.e. I'm going to give you my personal rankings, and then I'd like to hear what other people think.īefore you rank the factions, please tell us what you base your ranking system on by filling out the following Conditions.ġ) whether or not your ranking pertains to Single-Player Campaign, Single-Player Custom Battle or Multi-player.Ģ) the denarii level that you're addressingģ) type of map (whether it be flat with minimal hiding places, a forest, etc) Let's see how everyone ranks the factions. So I thought we should apply this to Rome: Total War (vanilla). He mentioned this in regards to Barbarian Invasion. Dwarfs are nearly unbreakable and have great artillery and unbreakable battle lines.I saw a comment of Severous where he talked about how some people grouped each faction in "baskets" (or "tiers" as I'll call them). ![]() Very Easy: Lizardmen are slow, but they are so damn durable that they are perhaps the easiest race to play, combined with amazing monsters and good magic. Empire is the most versatile faction in the game, Beastmen are good rushers, Orcs have good numbers, Vampire Counts are really good at magic and fielding large stacks of cheap chaff, Norsca have good, fast infantry and awesome mammoths.Įasy: Chaos is pretty straightforward with pretty damn great infantry, High Elves have decent stuff all around, and Dark Elves have the best early-game archer unit which has armor piercing. Normal: All of these factions are well-balanced and have pretty clear strategies. Tomb Kings have pretty terrible infantry units and only come to their own once you unlock the mid- and late-game game changers. Hard: Wood Elves really need kiting strategies and a good mobile game to thrive, but their powerful ranged infantry make up for it. ![]() the micro kings - are so damned difficult because cycle-charging a million cavalry units is hard. Their incredibly versatile roster really helps, as long as you know how to use it. Very hard: Skaven require a good understanding of the roles of each unit and the ability to counter the faction's weaknesses - low morale and somewhat subpar melee ability. ![]() You're welcome to disagree (please do!) but this is the reason why I rank them like this: Of course, between subfactions, the experience can be dramatically different, but I mean purely in terms of fighting against others in campaign with each army. NOTE: Talking about CAMPAIGN difficulty, not MP. Even Skryre has the awful disadvantage that its bullet units are nearly useless in sieges. Try playing a legendary Skaven campaign, ANY campaign and you will be quickly wiped out unless if you know what you are doing. Some of these should not be outrageous claims at all: Lizardmen and Dwarfs are very easy to tank with and simply outlast your opponent. This is why I didn't include the different subfactions because as we all know, those starts vary drastically. Think we missed one?
