Heroes of Troy adds 11 new playable heroes with their corresponding factions to the game, including 4 previously unplayable subcultures. In addition, the new playable factions have been added the Danaan Pillar or Trojan Pillar trait, so that they join one of the two great coalitions of the Trojan war, resulting in a massive war between the Danaan and Trojan armies. Therefore, I strongly recommend to use this mod even if you are not playing as one of the new factions.


Heroes:

• Nestor (Pylos, Achaeans)
• Idomeneus (Knossos, Achaeans)
• Ajax the Lesser (Narykos, Aeolians)
• Philoctetes (Meliboea, Aeolians)
• Menestheus (Athina, Ionians)
• Deiphobos (Ilion Hyrtacidae, Pelasgians)
• Helenos (Aethria, Pelasgians)
• Troilos (Ilion Imbrasos, Pelasgians)
• Polydamas (Methymna, Pelasgians)
• Cleodaeus (Dorians, Dorians)
• Telephos (Mysia, Phrygians)
  

The Trojan War is full of heroes, so I have tried to select the most relevant ones based on the poems of the Epic Cycle. If you think that any important hero is missing you may suggest them below, but I have planned this list since the game's release and I think that it is quite complete.


Compatibility:
This mod works in all three game modes (historical, truth behind the myth and mythos), both in campaign and custom battles. The mod edits startpos tables, so a new game is required for all the changes to be applied. This means that the mod is incompatible with other mods that edit the startpos. The mod also edits the troy_antagonists.lua, troy_constants.lua and frontend_prelude.lua scripts.


This mod is part of the Bibliotheca Mythologica. I strongly recommend to use this mod together with Gods of Olympus mod, which adds new gods, divine boons and units to the game.
