Gudene
Guder spilte en viktig rolle i det Antikke Hellas. Zevs (kongen av gudene) regjerte på Olympos, gudenes hjem. Det var viktig for de gamle grekerne å tilfredsstille gudene, ellers kunne de straffe befolkningen med overveldene naturkrefter. Det er derfor naturlig at gudene spiller en viktig rolle i Grepolis.

Grunnleggende
"Når en side går mot fienden med gudenes gave av sterkere moral, da kan som regel ikke deres motstandere motstå dem." - Xenofon
I Grepolis er det fire guder, Zevs, Poseidon, Hera og Athene. Hver gud kanIn Grepolis there are four gods, Zeus, Poseidon, Hera and Athena. Hver gud kan vedta fire ulike gudommelige krefter og kalle på to unike mystiske enheter.
I tempelet kan du velge hvilken gud du ønsker å tilbe. Hver by kan tilbe forskjellige guder, men hver by kan kun tilbe én gud av gangen. Jo høyere nivået på tempelet, jo mere velvilje vil du tjene fra din valgte gud. Du kan bruke denne velviljen for å vedta gudommelige krefter eller påkalle mystiske enheter.
Hvilken gud som er riktig for deg, kommer an på din situasjon. Det er derfor relativt nyttig å endre hvilken gud du tilber mange ganger gjennom spillet. Gjør dette med omhu, for når du skifter gud mister du all din velvilje og også de mystiske enhetene og de gudommelige kreftene fra din forrige gud.
Velvilje produseres som summen av alle nivåene på templene som tilber en enkel gud per time. Den gudommelige statuen tilsvarer 5 nivåer av tempelet.
Merk: Gudommelige krefter som påvirker tropper må avbryte troppbevegelsen.
For eksempel: Ved velvillig vind kastet på din flåte av angripende skip vil Zevs' raseri kastes over en angripende tropp, osv.
Zevs
Som hersker av himmel og jord var Zevs regnet av de gamle grekerne som den mektigste av alle guder. Han ble konge av Olympus da han drepte sin far Kronos i en mektig kamp.
I Grepolis kan Zevs kalle på den mystiske Minotaurosen og Manticora. Minotauren - halvt mann, halvt okse - er en sterk forsvarsenhet. I kontrast er Manticoraen - halvt mann, halvt løve - en sterk offensiv enhet.
Zevs er kjent for sin aggresjon, så hans gudommelige krefter tjerner offensiven. Med Zevs' lyn kan du ødelegge en fiendes bygning eller knuse hans armé. Med nok velvilje kan du også kalle på Zevs til å styrke din sjomilitære styrke eller sende ned en stridsvogn for å hjelpe din armé.
Gudommelige krefter
- Gudommelig kjennemerke: Den valgte byen mottar en stridsvogn.
- Skade: Skader en tilfeldig fiende-bygning.
- Velvillig vind: De sjømilitære styrken kjemper 10% sterkere (Kan kun bli brukt på utgående angrep).
- Zevs' Vrede: Ødelegger 10-30% av fiendens landenheter (kan kun bli brukt på innkommende angrep).
Mystiske enheter
Poseidon
Poseidon is Zeus' brother. He rules over the sea in the depths of his Crystal Palace. Greek sailors sacrificed horses in his honour as to obtain safe passage. Poseidon is best known for his hatred of Odysseus who blinded Poseidon's son, the Cyclops Polyphemus.
In Grepolis Poseidon can call upon the mythical Cyclops and Hydra. The Cyclops - a one eyed giant - is a strong all round unit however is extremely vulnerable to sharp attacks, similar to when Odysseus used a spear to blind Polyphemus. The Hydra - a nine headed giant serpent - is the only mythical creature of the sea. It is superior to all ships but far more expensive.
Poseidon is known for his powers over the sea, so his divine powers favour naval combat. Poseidon can conjure storms to destroy enemy fleets or earthquakes on the sea bed to tear down enemy walls. However Poseidon also has a friendly side, often providing you with usable drift wood and enticing your sailors to work faster in the Harbour.
Gudommelige krefter
- Kingly Gift: The city receives 800 wood.
- Call of the Ocean: All recruits added to the construction queue in the next twelve hours will have their construction time halved. This does not affect existing troops in the queue.

Mystiske enheter
Hera
Hera is both the wife and sister of Zeus, not an uncommon relationship in Greek mythology. She is the goddess of marriage and childbirth, often referred to as the goddess of families. Hera was also known to have a strong link with nature.
In Grepolis Hera can call upon the mythical Harpy and Medusa. The Harpy - half eagle, half woman - is the second fastest unit, as in Greek mythology Harpies travelled with the wind. This speed advantage is useful for offence, however they are quite poor in defense. The Medusa - a winged monster with snake hair - was said to have the power to turn men to stone. In Grepolis the Medusa is a powerful all round unit.
Hera is known for her power over emotions, so her divine powers favour encourage your people. When Hera holds her wedding party she receives resources for your people. She can also reach the heart of your people, making them either work faster or increase the population growth in the Barracks. Hera can also help you when danger strikes, attacking warriors will feel homesick and lose some of their fighting power.

Athena is Zeus' daughter. She is the namesake and patron goddess for the city of Athens, nicknamed "The Invincible" and "The Indefatigable". In Greek mythology Athena is the goddess of war tactics and strategy, famous for fighting with the Greeks in the Trojan War.
In Grepolis Athena can call upon the mythical Centaur and Pegasus. The Centaur - half man, half horse - is a fast defensive unit, armed with a bow and arrow. Pegasus - a winged horse - is the child of Poseidon and Medusa. In Grepolis Pegasus is the fastest unit with a strong defensive ability.
If you are looking for a god to protect you from enemy earthquakes and lightning, Athena is just for you. With City Protection, your city cannot be affected by divine forces from other gods for 12 hours.
