  • Mythology Teachers' Guide
    Teachers’ Guide Mythology: The Gods, Heroes, and Monsters of Ancient Greece by Lady Hestia Evans • edited by Dugald A. Steer • illustrated by Nick Harris, Nicki Palin, and David Wyatt • decorative friezes by Helen Ward Age 8 and up • Grade 3 and up ISBN: 978-0-7636-3403-2 $19.99 ($25.00 CAN) ABOUT THE BOOK Mythology purports to be an early nineteenth-century primer on Greek myths written by Lady Hestia Evans. This particular edition is inscribed to Lady Hestia’s friend John Oro, who was embarking on a tour of the sites of ancient Greece. Along his journey, Oro has added his own notes, comments, and drawings in the margins — including mention of his growing obsession with the story of King Midas and a visit to Olympus to make a daring request of Zeus himself. This guide to Mythology is designed to support a creative curriculum and provide opportunities to make links across subjects. The suggested activities help students make connections with and build on their existing knowledge, which may draw from film, computer games, and other popular media as well as books and more traditional sources. We hope that the menu of possibilities presented here will serve as a creative springboard and inspiration for you in your classroom. For your ease of use, the guide is structured to follow the book in a chapter-by-chapter order. However, many of the activities allow teachers to draw on material from several chapters. For instance, the storytelling performance activity outlined in the section “An Introduction to Mythology” could also be used with stories from other chapters.

  • Age of Mythology: the Titans C H a P T
    4303_ch01_final.qxd 9/15/03 7:35 AM Page 1 Age of Mythology: C The Titans H ge of Mythology is one of the best real-time strategy games ever produced. Ensemble Studios’s classic offered three A unique and balanced mythologies, a proven counterbalancing A combat system, and dozens of units rooted in deep and intriguing mythology. Age of Mythology: The Titans Expansion enhances the original game with an exciting set of changes and new features. This P chapter covers the most important gameplay alterations in Titans. We’ll discuss changes to mythological units, each mythology’s updates and unique T technology, and of course, the new Titan super unit. E R COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL 1 4303_ch01_final.qxd 9/15/03 7:35 AM Page 2 Important Changes from Age of Mythology Age of Mythology:The Titans Expansion offers many important balance tweaks and additional improvements over the original game.This section lists all of the general tweaks to all mythologies, then covers the Greek, Egyptian, and Norse mythology changes and new improvements, and how they affect strategies. * Mythological units are more important and valuable in gameplay. Many of the Greek, Egyptian, and Norse mythological unit statistics have been tweaked to make mytholog- ical units much more powerful in gameplay. Here are a few examples: the Greek Cyclops now has 650 hit points instead of 500; the cost of the Greek Medusa has been reduced to 250 gold, 32 favor instead of 250 gold, 40 favor; attack damage of the Egyptian Phoenix increased to 30 hack instead of 20 hack; cost of the Norse Mountain Giant reduced to 300 food, 27 favor instead of 300 food, 30 favor.
