Lernean Hydra One of the twelve labours of Herakles, slaying the nine-headed beast provided a unique challenge: every time Herakles would cut off a head, three more would sprout in its place. Each has their own set of associated units, buildings, in-battle and on-map special abilities, and other bits and pieces depending on the creature. The Divine Will system is expanded further, divine favour now grants players the use of abilities such as the Thunderbolts of Zeus, or the Epic tides of Poseidon.Įmbark on grand expeditions in search of the Cerberus, the Hydra and the Griffin! Harness their powers in war, take them into campaign and recruit their unique monstrous units. They can also have a much stronger presence on the battlefield, lending the armies their aid if a side has managed to suitably impress them. The battle maps and the campaign map has been updated to bring the gods of ancient Greece closer, as gods now will be present on the battle map, watching over the engagement from the skies above.

Familiar units such as the Minotaur, centaurs and harpies, among others, have been redesigned and upgraded into their actual monstrous counterparts. These are housed in a triple gatefold sleeve with an additional insert.Mythological mode has a large number of other changes, gameplay and visual. The triple vinyl, 41 tracks are be pressed onto three audiophile-quality, heavyweight 180g orange LPs.
