Game Play

Starting Position

Thrace Starting Position (Click to enlarge)

Thrace starts on the western coast of the Black Sea.

Their cities are:

  • Tylis: Thracian Large Town; Region - Thrace
  • Campus Getae: Thracian Large Town; Region - Tribus Getae

Victory Conditions

  • Long campaign: Hold 50 provinces including Rome.
  • Short campaign: Hold 15 provinces and outlast or destroy Macedon.

Units

Thrace General's Bodyguard.

Thrace is an infantry focused faction that is notably stronger in early game and that has a diverse choice of infantry. In that way they are similar to most barbarians and despite being considered Greek they have barbarian influence. They get access to both aggressive melee infantry and Phalanx style troops, which is unusual. Their archers and siege weapons are average. They share cavalry with the Greeks, in other words, it is very poor, arguably tied for the worst in the game. In the late game their roster is weak overall, with no real redeeming qualities except for their Late General which is surprisingly very strong.

  • Cavalry
    • Greek Cavalry
    • Militia Cavalry
    • General's Bodyguard
  • Siege
    • Onagers

Unique Units

Bastarnae: Fierce warriors adept at close quarters against other infantry, Bastarnae may attack without orders.
