if the previous Total War versions are any indication then you get the bare minimum of factions in the core game.
Any faction you really want to have is likely to be DLC, because why sell a complete product when you can make the punters pay more ?

— edit —

the FAQ states that there will be ‘more’ factions than any previous (GW)Total War … but that wasn’t a high bar to begin with.
It never compared to the historical versions of Total War.
