Heroes


Hero - Detailed informationEach Greek civilization has a unique hero in each age, making a total of four. (Five with Poseidon's naval hero.) You can only build one of each hero at any time, but they are far stronger than Norse Hersir or Egyptian Priests, and if killed you can retrain them. Heroes can carry relics and they counter myth units.

Villager - Detailed informationVillagers are essential to gathering resources that will fund your army, and building structures to expand your empire. A strong empire has many villagers. In times of emergency, villagers are able fighters, but they are best left to what they do well - gathering resources and constructing buildings.
