Welcome to the Rome: Total War wiki guide. Let me set the scene: You're in your most comfortable chair, sitting in front of your PC, with the lights low, the significant other out of town, and the. Brittannia, the Julii Romans, Spain, and Germania. The Britons and the Romans bother me the most. I'd think I would have to spam warbands in order to deal with the Britons' chariots, yes. But that leaves me weak against any infantry they bring. Moreover, warbands won't do the trick against Rome because their strength lies in their infantry.

The Brutii are one of the three playable factions in Rome: Total War that are playable from the beginning (the other two, of course, being the other Roman Houses, the Scipii and Julii).

Game Play

Being one of the three Roman families, the House of the Brutii will receive missions from the Senate, and will be forced to deal with the consequences of not completing them.

At a certain point during the game, the Senate will demand that your faction leader commit suicide. If you accept their demand, the heir will become the faction leader and the process will be renewed several years later. If you refuse, you will initiate the Civil War, a gameplay mechanic unique to the Roman factions. It should be noted that, once your popularity with the people is high enough, you can simply initiate the Civil War by attacking another Roman faction. Also, if you are playing as another faction the Civil War will not take place.

Starting Position

Brutii starts on the southeastern part of the Italian peninsula bordered by Julii and Scipii.

• Tarentum: Brutii Capital; Region - Apulia

• Croton: Brutii Large Town; Region - Bruttium

Victory Conditions

• Long Campaign: Hold 50 provinces including Rome.
• Short Campaign: Hold 15 provinces and outlast or destroy the Greek Cities and Macedon.

Units

All of the Roman factions share the same unit roster. The Roman factions are unique, however, in that once you construct an Imperial Palace in any of your Italian cities you will receive a message informing you that the Marian reforms have taken place. The Marian Reforms introduce a more powerful roster of heavy infantry units (such as the Legionary Cohort), which replace your older-style legions. Any older units will not be automatically replaced, they will simply continue to exist, but you are not able to train any more.
