Oooooh if new gods are up for consideration I have a suggestion for one.
Name:
Priapus
Description:
god of fertility and protector of gardens.
Whenever a donkey is sacrificed in Praipus honor, he rewards the residents with additional favor and blesses them by helping to populate the polis with brave warriors. During invasions he stand shoulder with those troops to help protect the town from damage.
Spells:
I thought of 6 which is a little over kill but I couldn't decide which 4 I liked the best. Although Crim if you want a 4th spell, the protection one is my fav so feel free to steal it.
Gift of Fertility Priapus blesses his warriors with fruitfulness
Instantly finish recruiting 50% of one queue of units 350 favor
*** like instabuild can't be used within 5 mins of attack landing
Countryside's Stiff Guard Priapus stands erect in the city and protects it from damage.
The city cannot be affected by stone hail for 12 hours 130 favor
*** 12 hours is for speed 1 world so it same price and duration as CP
Archery The finest Archers in all of Greece arrive to defend the chosen polis
City instantly receives 5 Archers 50 favor
Protection No spells can penetrate the protective sheath Priapus places over troops and towns
While protection is active on a city or attack no other spells can be applied 200 favor
*** This would include purification so could spell protect attacks again
Measuring Up An unnstoppable force is about to meet an unmovable object Priapus has decided to change the odds.
The attackers bp is compared to the bp of the defender and gives moral for that attack150 favor
Blessed Growing Season You're city has had an excellent growing season, so your warehouse needs to be enlarged to fit it all in.
The warehouse is expanded by 20% to hold additional wood 75 favor
Myths:
Have included 2 myths as normal and a replacement for divine envoys.
Sytar: Half man, half goat these myths make good looters.
Pop: 15
Ranged Att: 250
Def Blunt: 300
Def Sharp: 70
Def Ranged: 250
Loot: 400
Speed: 66
Nymphs: mythological spirits who move agilely through the water.
Pop: 15
Att: 945
Def: 945
Speed: 105
Donkeys: As sending a boat load of divine envoys to sack a city is about as effective as putting a three legged donkey in a canoe, floating it down the themes and expecting it to conquer England. Think we may as well swap DE for Donkeys. As the Greeks used to sacrifice Donkeys to Priapus to gain favour, would like to apply the same here.
So they would be identical to Divine envoys. They would work in all cities with a god and have the same pop, price, and stats.
Except for every donkey that dies in a victorious battle, Priapus will produce 10% extra favour, providing you at receive at least 50 battle points, max 50%
