Welcome to ancient Troy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenmangaming.com\/games\/a-total-war-saga-troy-pc\/\">Total War Saga: Troy<\/a> dives into one of the most legendary conflicts in history, and while it\u2019s part of the more bite-sized Saga series, don\u2019t let that fool you &#8211; there\u2019s still a huge amount of strategic meat on the bone. Veterans of the franchise will find plenty to enjoy, and newcomers will be drawn into its mythological storytelling, faction variety, and immersive campaign gameplay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With distinct playable leaders, mythical beasts, divine influence, and a map teeming with opportunity (and betrayal), Troy is a Hellenic commander\u2019s dream. And if you\u2019re wondering who to lead into battle, here\u2019s the full rundown of factions waiting to be commanded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Playable Factions at Launch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"890\" height=\"273\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenmangaming.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/TWST-Inline.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25424\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At release, <strong>Total War Saga: Troy<\/strong> gave players access to eight unique factions. Each one is based on iconic figures from Greek myth and legend, and they each come with their own playstyle, strengths, and campaign goals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dardania<\/strong> \u2013 Led by Aeneas, favours divine will and replenishment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ithaca<\/strong> \u2013 Led by Odysseus, focused on cunning, ambushes, and mobility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lycia<\/strong> \u2013 Sarpedon\u2019s faction, strong on trade and naval power.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mycenae<\/strong> \u2013 Led by Agamemnon, with strong influence and vassal mechanics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Phthia<\/strong> \u2013 Achilles&#8217; faction, driven by rage and glory-seeking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sparta<\/strong> \u2013 Led by Menelaus, focused on holding territory and retaliation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hector\u2019s Trojans<\/strong> \u2013 Defensive and honour-bound.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Paris\u2019 Trojans<\/strong> \u2013 A faction favouring diplomacy and romantic ambition (yes, really).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of these leaders brings a different lens to the story of Troy and offers unique campaign mechanics that change how you approach war, diplomacy, and divine favour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Amazon DLC Factions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortly after launch, the <strong>Amazons DLC<\/strong> added two more factions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Hippolyta\u2019s Amazons<\/strong> \u2013 Emphasise diplomacy, territory expansion, and female unit recruitment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Penthesilea\u2019s Amazons<\/strong> \u2013 A nomadic horde-style faction built around fast-moving raids and mercenaries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These legendary warrior queens bring fresh, high-mobility tactics to the battlefield and provide a great contrast to the more grounded Greek factions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Non-Playable Factions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"890\" height=\"273\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenmangaming.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/TWST-Inline-alt.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25425\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you\u2019re limited to the ten playable factions (with DLC), the campaign map is far from quiet. You\u2019ll interact with a variety of other non-playable groups that represent regions and powers from across the Bronze Age Aegean world. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Phrygians<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Thracians<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Thessalians<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ionian city-states<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rhodes<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230;and more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Some factions, like the Amazons, may appear as NPCs if you don\u2019t own the relevant DLC. They all have their own agendas, allies, and resources\u2014so expect diplomacy to be just as dangerous as open warfare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Total War Saga: Troy<\/strong> launched on August 13th, 2020, and later arrived on <strong>Steam<\/strong> on <strong>September 2nd, 2021<\/strong>, bringing even more players into the fold. Whether you&#8217;re a Homeric scholar, a Virgil fan, or just someone who loves watching phalanxes clash in glorious real-time battles, Troy has something for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, who will you lead? Will you stand with the proud sons of Troy, or bring glory to the Achaeans with your thousand ships? Either way, the fate of the ancient world is in your hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we think of military campaigns, there\u2019s arguably none more famous than the Siege of Troy.
