What in Hades name is Mythos and why should I care? Great question. Let me regale you. With Mythos, you can fully embrace the legends of the ancient world and dive into a mythic total war experience. Put down the pointy ball mask in Mythos, the Minotaur is real and as amazing as ever. Get it, because of the labyrinth. Maze Myth. Moving on. The 8 units from the base game have been upgraded with updated models and animations. Flying Harpy, Centaur's, Cyclops's and Giants are just a few of the new units you'll find around the new Mythic map. And hey, don't be afraid to be a tourist and take a few snaps with Troy's photo mode. What the worst could happen. Create your own odyssey and embark on one of three new expeditions to track, fight and tame legendary beasts. The Griffin, the Hydra and Cerberus. Use these towering monsters in battle and watch your enemies flee to the much less fantastical historical mode. But don't expect these mighty beasts to just roll over and join you. Who's a good boy? The gods love to watch us mere mortals go about our petty lives. Spy them chilling in the sky. Saying Zeus is my sky, Papa, might sound strange, but in Mythos it's entirely possible. Heroes can call upon the likes of Aries to increase morale and melee attack. Atomus to increase movement speed and Aphrodite to literally stop men in their tracks. As the gods are a fickle bunch, make sure you stay on top of your offerings. A temple or two won't hurt either. You don't want unexplained events happening to you. So what is Mythos? Is Heroes playing fast and loose with the power of the gods. Hurling lightning bolts and causing tidal waves. These actual monsters joining the fight giving you a wealth of unity and playstyles. It's mythic beast tearing their way through the front lines, instilling terror and turning the tides of battle. It's a spectacle for the eyes. Campaign and battle mats revitalize with the mystic wonders of the ancient world. But a word of advice. You may want to stay away from the beach. Open and create your own legend.
