Urban and preatorian cohort

[Unseen Potato]

I have played rtw for 2 weeks now, and I have played as both the brutii and scipi.

What exactly is the diffrence between the urban cohort and the preatorian cohort? I cant see any other diffrence than thei background.

And by the way what do you have to do to get the other factions?

cost?
And you unlock other factions by eliminating them in a campaign or winning a campaign outright. Or use a mod from the Dungeon forum.

I remember reading somewhere that Urban Cohorts have better stamina than Praetorian Cohorts.
If true, might come in handy if you like to use Testudo formation.

I remember reading somewhere that Urban Cohorts have better stamina than Praetorian Cohorts.

odd thing about this is that stamina seems to be backwards in the game at the mo. so praetorians will actually last longer than urbans, even though it should be the other way around.
