I thought the Atlantans curried favour from Posideon, not Hermes.

You'll be able to drop Tartarus through some plot holes by the end, I wouldn't worry about it.

Sorry, poor attempt at a joke considering how fast the mission went.

You mean you don't ship him with Athena?

I am disgusted with the lot of you. You shouldn't ship Arkantos with anyone.

You should trireme him.

Hang on, Medusae? Shouldn't they be called Gorgons?

Do the units sounding off actually speak Greek? They had individual languages in Age of Empires 2.

Impressive. Also, elephants are hilarious in this game when facing Cyclopes.

Aw, you missed out my favourite part about that legend! Namely, Horus defeating Set by castrating him with his bare hands.

Oh man, I just got why Poseidon is on the enemy's side.

Because he's a Cyclops. Like Polyphemus, he must be one of his sons.

Well, Arkantos hasn't got a chance. Even if he succeeds, Kronos has time on his side.

Counting on Roman tradition and law to prevent them from warring with you doesn't always work, see: Gaul

Well, not entirely... I always heard of one small village of indomitable Gauls holding out against the Roman invaders.

Did any of the old mythologies ever deal with other pantheons? I know a lot of the Old Testament details some old Mesopotamian deities, but we're similar things found elsewhere?

Maybe Odysseus really wanted to get laid?

Normally I'd look askance at anyone describing their actions as 'brilliant', but in this case, I'm willing to overlook it. Masterfully micro'd.

You mentioned the enemy having the 'Walking Woods' power. What is that?

Edit: Harald Hardrada would be gobsmacked.

Why were there Egyptian statues in the beginning of that cutscene? Why, they must have been left there by Gypsies!
