This is my suggestion for the Christian factions for gaining favor. They convert people. I guess if you didn't want to make it be like Age of Empires, you could simply make it so that when they convert a unit, they do not fight as hard against you because you're fellow Christians. Another idea is merely changing them to being neutral. As for god powers, the seals, trumpets, and bowls of judgement would make incredible god powers.

Thank you for explaining

Yes, of course. Mythology is the study of myths and myths are misrepresentations of the truth

I am a Protestant-Christian. I do believe that homosexuality is wrong, but a homosexual could be a Christian as much as I can. As for believing in God, I think that it is perfectly just for me to be living the rest of my life in hell. There isn't really any reason to be snobbish as a Christian. I like the way Socrates thought of it.
Socrates's friend had apparently asked someone who was very intelligent who the wisest man was and the person answered that it was Socrates. Socrates found this very strange so he went to all who were famous for being wise and he questioned them. After this survey, he found that all were really somewhat foolish. Then Socrates finally had an idea. His idea was basically this. The meaning of the wise person was that people like Socrates were the wisest merely because they accepted that their wisdom was foolish.
Christians are right in one way, they have accepted a free gift that others have turned down.

I guess that this is just me, but I think that many people will be offended by seeing Christianity, Islam, and Judaism being depicted as myths. How would you like Atheism being featured as a myth in this mod?

I am just wondering because the fairly old battle video of Demetrius fighting against the celtic video showed blocking animations. Will people fight much like this in the game?

What is the Biblical reference for the Pentagram god power? Where is a hell hound in the Bible? There are actually hundreds of amazing things that the Bible mentions that you could consider a god power. For instance, let's take the siege of Gog and Magog. There are two potential god powers there. #1 God, rains down fire on the bad guys and #2 Satan causes the world to supply him with a massive army. (it is described as having the number of the sands of the sea and having magnificent armor and horses. I am not saying that they would have to be that big, but you could perhaps summon a fairly large army.) What about the Trumpet of death? That caused millions of horsemen to come over and slaughter over 1/3 of the earth's population with fire, sulfur, and smoke? (excepting Christians) As for Biblically accurate myth units, what about Seraphim, Cherabim, leviathons, chariot angels, messenger angels, demons that can posses humans and animals, kill humans, torture them, etc,...
As for the reason for conversion giving favor instead of the shear existence of Christians, may I remind you of the parable of the Prodigal Son or the shepherd finding the lost lamb. Angels do rejoice when a person is converted according to the Bible and Jesus commands Christians telling them to go out into the world and spread the Word of God. Christians are commanded to convert other people not just exist.
