** The mightiest army is [[EvilSorcerer the Santoth]], this was [[LivingWeapon the personal army/human artillery]] of the first king of the Acacian empire. When [[{{God}} Elenet]] still lived among his creations, the king recorded Elenet's words which became the first source of magic for humanity and the king became a SorcerousOverlord. He then taught the Santoth, BlackMagic to be a SuperSoldier army that he made immortal and bound to him with a curse. Besides carving out what would be the thousand year old Acacian empire, the Santoth were the ones who cursed the ancient Mein with undeath and banishment.

* In ''Literature/{{Acacia}}'', the Mein, who are expies of the Germanic Tribes within the Roman Empire, are an exiled ProudWarriorRace people from the GrimUpNorth which is bad enough for the complacent Acacian empire especially after a Mein thane assassinated the Acacian king. But worse yet, they have an alliance with the Numrek, a race of immortal giants who are [[HigherTechSpecies masters of alchemy and crafting siege weapons]]. Against this force, the Acacian empire is conquered and the Mein hadn't even released the Tunishvere, their indestructible and superstrong ancestors who were locked away in another dimensional prison.

* ''Sands of Salzaar'' is an action rpg but has a large emphasis on making armies. And initially the 5 Sultans of the tribes have the strongest armies: Bahat of the Akhal, Rebiya of the Dakn, Ludo Khan of the Thur, Ruha of the Dhib and Husnu of the Nasir. Their units are all at or close to the maximum experience of Level 20 and each unit has a full complement of individuals and they've all upgraded themselves along different branches for flexibility. But you can make a stronger army than theirs, as they stick almost exclusively to units within their tribe and even then they rarely have units from Tier 6, the final tier. So they are often missing the Akhal Vanguard Knight, the Dakn Shadow Apostle, the Thur Warmonger, Dhib Beastmaster and the Nasir Crossbowman. Your army have can easily have many of these ultimate units and you can supplement them further with various monsters and humans who are outside of the tribes.

** It's not easy creating a powerful army because of the game's unique ArbitraryHeadcount for each ranking of unit. But you have an unique advantage in campaign mode. Because at a certain ranking, your heroes can produce a uniquely special unit or building according to their specialization you can easily have an army full of these units. So a Dragon Clan force could have a significant number of mini-gunners and sumo wrestlers with some dinosaur riders carrying enchanted ice spears, in addition to the best of what they normally can make.

* ''VideoGame/ParaWorld'' has the SEAS faction, who function like the easily dominating kingdom of Creon in ''VideoGame/TotalAnnihilationKingdoms''. The three native factions of the setting are the Norsemen, the Dust Riders and the Dragon Clan who all have varying degrees of technology melded with dinosaur-powered StonePunk, with the most advanced being the Dragon Clan who also have ClockPunk with {{Steampunk}} and BambooTechnology as well as gunpowder. The SEAS function similar to the Dragon Clan on steroids, only without the oddball traps and upping everything with DieselPunk technology. Their uniquely designed non-electric technology based on planning by a famous 19th century mathematician who's still alive in the 21st century, is reminiscent of what came out of World War 2 with the addition of MiniMecha and triceratops. No wonder the SEAS was easily trouncing all 3 factions at once, until our heroes came over.

* Literature/TheCulture: Special Circumstances: its members are either {{Sociopathic Hero}}es ''before'' they joined, or they are formed to become this. Some advanced civilizations which are ''on good terms with the Culture'' simply refuse to let TWO members of SC travel together within their sphere of influence: too much foreign badassitude in the same place being apparently dangerous even to powerful space-traveling civilizations.

* The [[Manga/OnePiece Whitebeard Pirates]] and their allies consist of about forty-two {{Badass Crew}}s joined into a single force to take on the World Government, itself sporting its own Badass Army of Marine officers and privateer pirates, and cyborg Pacifcas.

* The Rangers aka the Anla'Shok from ''Series/BabylonFive'', who can be summed up as being part Jedi, part AcePilot.
