Hero - Detailed information
Each 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.
