As players progress in the game, they will earn and learn new Feats - attacks, defenses, and combat special moves - that come with their own unique animations. Enemies will also have a set of combat special moves that they will execute mercilessly to turn the tide of battle.

Gods & God System

The gods play a central and commanding role in Gods and Heroes: Rome Rising™. The gods are very real and very involved in everyday life. They have been divided into 4 groups of 3 gods, or Triads. At some point in their development, every player will align with a Triad and a specific god. Gods can grant their followers great powers, but they can demand major sacrifices, homage, and proof of valor, honor, and commitment as well. To earn a god's ongoing support and to preserve access to his/her power, players will be sent on innumerable quests and challenges.

And because the gods often feud with each other, a player's god's enemy may choose to make life very difficult. At all times a God Meter will tell you of your standing with each of the gods and Triads.
