The Ancient Faction is a Faction that contains multiple Units such as Ancient, Greek, and Roman soldiers. These units are moderately priced. This faction gets the primary usage of its units from strategy, (Like the Romans and Greeks were famous for), by favoring the use of shields along with spears. Some units are inspired by Greek mythology, like Zeus and the Minotaur for example.
*Hitpoints is modified by the unit's size (final HP = base × size²). For the unit's base hitpoints, please refer to their page.

During the Roman Republic, the Romans used a machine similar to the Ballista known as the Scorpio. It is more like a long-range sniper than an artillery piece that was used to target specific people.
The Ballista is believed to have been based on the Scorpio.
Sarissa was a kind of spear that was used by the infantry of Alexander the Great.
The Ancient faction has the second most expensive secret unit, Artemis, which was previously the first, before it was nerfed while the Ice Giant was buffed.
