In Game

  • The whole campaign of the original game is a series of awesome moments for Arkantos, who travels across the world, partaking in battles involving three different mythologies including: participating in the battle of Troy, entering the Underworld to destroy a ram capable of busting into Tartarus, taking down Circe despite being a boar, recovering the pieces of an Egyptian God, and confronting all of the Norse tribes at once even after being tricked by Loki. And in the last mission, he ascends as a demi-god empowered by Zeus with a final epic duel with Poseidon's Living Statue, and wins!
  • At the climax of the expansion, Gaia appears in all her glory, swats away enemy forces, and fights Kronus hand-to-hand, then throws him back into Tartarus, saving the world.
  • The Powers of The Gods. This gives you the ability to assault your enemies with Tornadoes, Meteors, or a variety of other disasters. Usually accompanied by dramatic music.
  • Heroes. These warriors are strong against mortals and myth units alike, are capable of picking up relics, and when they die a ghost rises from their bodies.
