Rome Total War Factions There are twenty different factions in Rome Total War if you include the rebels as a faction. You can only play as three of them in the beginning these are: Julii Romans, the Brutii Romans and the Scipii Romans. I enjoyed playing a game called Rome Total War where these 'ninja' like troops called Roman Arcani can be found, I have looked on some websites and all I can gather is that they were agents of some kind in Roman controlled Britain. I was curious if someone could.

Arcani, the wierd darth vader like roman soldiers who can hide anywhere are supposedly 'amazing' but, in normal unit size, with a unit size of only 16 they are easily brought down in close combat against lots of enemies, unlike legionaries, or any other kinds of troops, who can easily hold their own for a while. You have to spend loads building the temples of Mars to create them, they cost loads and, when they are spotted, they go down like rats in a barrel to missile fire.Rome Total War Arcani
