So in Act 2 after allying with the Guard and choosing between the Forge-Bound and the Bronze Brotherhood, you get the chance to either ally with the Unbroken or the Earthshakers. I picked the Forge-Bound; what do the Unbroken and Earthshakers do?

I chose unbroken cause well I just got the Forge guys at the crossing and they need manpower to go with the new weapons. V Guard explained to me prior about manpower issues. If you went with bronze brotherhood instead of forge masters i'd go with the mages to compliment your army of mercenaries and V Guard.

Dunno what they do yet storyline wise but thats my reasoning behind the choices pragmatically.

As far as i know, from my playthrough, you are able to recruit four factions. I was able to recruit the V guard, the forge born, the unbroken, and the earthshakers. In hindsight, i would have preferred to save the sages instead of the earthshakers, and the B brotherhood is basically a big group of mercs, magic smiths are obviously way cooler.
