    Default Let's Play Guess the Faction! (With Maps!)

    EDIT: Thanks to GSC and his incredible new maps this post has been edited to include the new info. That means the faction lists will change, and people's suggestions in the posts below may not make a lot of sense.


    This thread is there so we can use the screenshots and video screencaps of the campaign map mini-map to guess factions in each of the three theatres. This post is cross posted from another thread. I decided to start a new one because my post doesn't really fit in with the theme of that thread. Mods can merge/delete as they feel appropriate, but I feel this topic deserves it's own thread.


    Anybody want to help me identify all of the different factions? Sorry that the numbers are in odd places. I tried to go anti-clockwise but it didn't work as well as planned.


    Europe and India
