* CivilWarcraft: More than usual for a real-time strategy. In all three campaigns the primary enemy faction uses technology from the same race as the player, with the other two appearing in only a few levels each. That said, your opponents usually use a few things you can't and vice versa. For example, the Doge's units are unavailable in the campaign (excluding [[DefectorFromDecadence Pulitore's]] recruitment) and ''you'' can't build the Doom Cannon from a lab. Meanwhile, the Doge can't build Clockwork Men, but does get to use his Doge Guard units instead of normal Musketeers. The Cuotl campaign is the main exception, as the only units you can't use eventually are their heroes, who are the antagonists.
** FridgeBrilliance: When you play non-CivilWarcraft skirmishes it quickly becomes apparent why this is the case: if you play the Vinci and take an Alin city, their Magus Districts are more or less useless to you and you can't build Industrial Districts, thus denying you the ability to expand on your faction's unique abilities (though it works in reverse for your enemy as well, of course). CivilWarcraft means this issue never shows up in the campaign if the player takes control of an enemy's cities.
