- Unlocking All Factions Rome Total War for Mac Yeah same here. I am editing both the descrstrat.txt and the campaigndescriptions.txt. The factions will show up when you hit Imperial Campaign, but when you click to start the campaign, it takes you back to the Single Player menu. Very frustrating The 'Unlock All Factions' option does not work.

Unlocking all playable factions in the TW games is rather simple. Note that in Shogun: Total War all factions are playable from the beginning.

Rome: Total War
1. Go to:
C:Program FilesThe Creative AssemblyRome - Total Wardataworldmapscampaignimperial_campaign. (gold edition)
How To Unlock All Factions Edit. This must be the most asked question in modding and also the easiest thing to do. Finding Your Files Edit. Assuming you know where your RTW files are (Usually C: Program Files Activision Rome - Total War or C: Program Files The Creative Assembly Rome - Total War if you have gold edition).
C:Program FilesActivisionRome - Total WarDataworldmapscampaignimperial_campaign. (Normal RTW)
2. Open Descr_strat.txt with notepad.
3. You will see three headings. Drag select the factions under unlockable and paste them under playable. this will unlock those factions for play.
4. For non playable Simply drag them from the nonplayable header to the playable one. All RTW factions are now unlocked. Save the file over the original and start RTW.
Caution: Playing as the Slaves or Senate can cause the game to crash.
Barbarian Invasion
The process is exactly the same as for RTW. Go to
C:Program FilesThe Creative AssemblyRome - Total WarBIdataworldmapscampaignbarbarian_invasion. (Gold Edition)
c:Program FilesActivisionRome - Total Warbidataworldmapscampaignbarbarian_invasion(Normal BI).
and copy the unlockable and nonplayable to the playable header. All BI factions are now unlocked. Save the file and close it.
Caution: If you start a campaign with an emergent faction, the game will not work.
Medieval Total War
Total War Rome 2 Faction Unlocking And General Creation ..
While almost all factions in MTW are playable, the Papacy and the Golden Horde are unplayable.
1. Go to C:Program FilesMedieval Total Warcampmapstartposearly.txt
2. Make a backup of this file.
3. Search using Ctrl+F for this:
4. Change FT_MINOR to FT_MAJOR to make the faction playable.
This is for the early campaign. If you would like all factions in high or late campaigns, edit the high.txt or late.txt file instead of early.txt. Same procedure applies.
Note: You cannot play Glorious Acheivement campaigns with these factions unlocked, only Total Domination

| | Honestly i dont know why most players are so hard on carthage, early in the game they are a bit weak but iberian infantry can hold a fight against hastati and spanish barbarian units. Plus they have an incredible trade position being on the central mediterrain. If you pool together your starting armies you should eaisly be able to take over sicily. Not to mention later in the game you get sacred band, sacred band cav, and war elephants. Carthage is a force to be reckoned with. |

| | The guide is good but the author underestimates the phalanx and medium and light cavalry,they could be very useful,for chasing the routing enemy,and as scouts.And the Romans don't have all the same units,but different gladiators.The Julii have the Samnite Gladiators,the Brutii the Velite Gladiators,and the Scipii the Mirmillo Gladiators.The phalanx are almost invincible from the front,but very vurnerable from the flanks,and the rear.The best faction is Germania,with their Night Raiders,Berserkers,Gothic Cavalry,Spear Warband and so on.If they had onagers they would be invincible.Thrace,Scythia,Parthia and Gaul are good,too.There should be a list of mercenaries like Samnite mercenaries,Mercenary Hoplites and others. |

| | I would agree with Bodge's comment that the german spearmen are underestimated in this faction guide. I have managed to conquer Gaul, the House of Julii and remove Britannia from the mainland by using these spearmen and a few light calvary. Use the spearmen in the forests in a V formation and attack your enemy taking them offguard and skewering them. Then sound the charge and slay the routers with calvary. In this style of battle I have beaten armies twice the size of mine leaving only 10-20 survivors. I would strongly suggest playing as Germania if you wanted a faction other than Rome. Their later game units can be very effective and entertaining in combat. (Beserkers, Night Raiders, Gothic Calvary). |

| I think the author can't use phalanx units well, too. The thing he didn't mentioned is phalanx's spears are longer then hoplite's. While phalanx units massacre hoplites, hoplites can't even hit them.
And I noticed a second thing that isn't included in guide. Cataphracts are heavily armoured then Companion Cavalry but this makes Cataphracts a little slower than other heavy cavalry and also they tire more quickly. Companion cavalry's armor is lighter but it's faster and has more stamina. And one last thing, I noticed it while author compares Macedonian Cavalry with Companion Cavalry, he says they're almost same. But there's a thing named charge bonus, it tellst how much more that unit will damage enemy at first clash(sorry for my english). This Companion cavalry's charge bonus is much more than others. Scythian Nobles' and Light Lancers' charge bonuses are great, too. This units can make half of enemy units die, and half to flee with only one strike. Except these I think the guide is perfect and well-made. |

| I think that the author underestimated the thracians, they are an interesting faction to play, combining barbarians tactics (the great flaxmen and bastarnaes) with macedons phalanx, the only problem i have with them was the scythian menace. Early times are not easy to survive due to the agressive macedons, but making a great use of bribing and diplomacy you can survive and use their own armies against them. It is vital to control Byzantium and trade in black sea.
On the other hand i think that thracians should have more type of skirmish units or of a best qualitee, the peltast was a soldier of thracian origin |

| | The author has made one critical mistake in saying that all Roman factions have the same units. There is actually one difference: Gladiators. The Scipii have some really awesome gladiators who can only be trained at a fully upgraded Coliseum. The Julii get average gladiators who can be trained at a level 2 Amphitheatre. Finally, the Brutii get bad (this is a relative term) Gladiators who can be trained at the basic Arena. |
