Greek/Roman Religion?

[Dray Prescot]

I wonder why there is not a religion oriented around the Greek and Roman classical Gods. I am not sure what to call it (name it), but it is NOT Zorasterism (I think I mispelled that).

Zeus/Jupiter, Ares/Mars and many other Gods and Goddesses with a Greek and Roman name, that you run into in Greek and Roman classical literture and history going back to the Illiad.

Guess you'd call them both Polytheism. That'd probably also include Egyptian and Norse gods as well. Not sure if there is a good single word for any of them separately and that is probably why they aren't already in.

They're techinically represented in this game by the "Pantheon" stage in religion.

Ahh, yeah that would make perfect sense.

You could take one of custom religion icons and name it Hellenic or Greco-Roman

Perhaps they could just be considered Polytheism, although that seems to be too weak a description of them.

Hm. Maybe.

Like the other poster said, ancient religions are represented in the pantheon stage. Also, they couldn't be added in as a religion called Polytheism because some of the religions in-game are already polytheistic

From my understanding, in Rome, each "God" essentially was it's own religion. It had it's own temple and it's own followers. The Gods each coexisted in mythology, and they were associated with different things. If you needed to fall in love, you make an offering to the love God. If you needed to win a war, you pray to the war god.
