Hi Folks, you wanna play some demigods? You wanna fight huge giants? You want to fill the heart of the Roman Empire with terror and reduce mighty realms to ashes? Or do you seek a greater challenge in your campaign, stronger AI-armies, commanded by really deadly heroes? This is a fun mod! It is not historical. Did I say it is a fun mod? Yes, it is. The one and only purpose of this mod is to have fun. You want to have fun? Then be my guest!!

CREDITS

I want to thank the following people:
My buddy champLoo - for sharing some modding secrets and good advice :) Thank´s mate!
DogSoldierSPQR - who taught me how to mod with his great youtube-tutorials. If you haven´t watched them yet - you should do!!
The King of Phoenicia just for being here and giving good input!


WHAT DOES THIS MOD DO?

It offers you some really tough units. Most of them will have a UNIT CAP of 1.
I worked on the fatigue tables. All units - not only the heroes - benefit from that changes. Means: nearly no more fatigue!! Note: when you use special abilites (e.g. rapid advance) units still get tired. So use that abilities wisely.
Campaign action points for all hero units were increased to 6000 (7000 for horse units). So they can move a lot further than normal units (if you do not put them in regular armies) The AI will build this units too. So watch out :)


I. HERACLES
Unkillable, unstoppable - at least for mortals. The walking talking one-man-artillery. Heracles throws badass javelins which wipe out units in the blink of an eye.
Recruitment time = 2 turns (hellenic major cities lvl 1-4)
Athens
UNIT CAP = 1

II. PHILOCTETES´ BAND
Hero archer (3 men/unit). Heavy arrow volleys, ultra range. Those guys are strong in melee too, but way better used as missile unit.

Athens, Sparta, Macedon
UNIT CAP = 1

III. PERSEUS
Heavy sword warrior and a fine greek hero. Throws precursor javelins with oil-effect for mass killings. What he hates most, are germanic giants. They give him the creeps... even though he would never admit that.
Recruitment time = 2 turns (hellenic major cities lvl 1-4)
Athens
UNIT CAP = 1

IV. DIOMEDES´ BRETHREN

VIII. PURIZAS
Purizas are vicious germanic giants. And they are out for blood and human flesh. Some serve the chieftains of the Suebi. But they are greedy and they take a lot of riches for their service. Their mere presence frightens enemy forces on the battlefield. And they throw poisoned animal carcasses.
Recruitment time = 2 turns (Wodanaz shrine lvl 3+4)

Lugh is an Irish deity represented in mythological texts as a hero and High King of the distant past.

Resheph was a Canaanite deity of plague and war. In Egyptian iconography Resheph is depicted wearing the crown of Upper Egypt. He has links with Theban war god Montu and was thought of as a guardian deity in battle by many Egyptian pharaohs. He and his fellows have godly hiding abilities and they shoot deadly snakepot missiles from their slings. Their blessed kopis blades will do the rest. Very dangerous unit - even though they look a bit fragile. Don´t let them fool you!!
