 ===========================================================================
                          Monsters You'll Encounter
 ===========================================================================

 Before I list the monsters, I'd like to say that monsters are not always out
 to destroy your city.  They only do what their creator tells them to do.
 If you have a Sanctuary built for a particular god, you might be able to use
 that god's monster as a defense of the city.

  Cyclops
  This one-eyed brute is the apple of Zeus' eye.

  Kraken
  Poseidon counts the Kraken, a horrible sea creature, among his
  favorite things.

  Cerberus
  This three-headed hound of the Underworld is Hades favorite pet.

  Medusa
  This snake-haired woman, who is frequently a minion of Demeter, turns
  all who look at her into stone.

  Hydra
  This multi-headed creature likes to bite and sting.  When he's not
  pursuing his own interests, he works for Athena.

  Caldonian Boar
  This monsterous boar likes to impale people with his tusks.  Artemis
  is his master when he isn't attacking something of his own free will.

  Scylla
  Another in a long list of multi-headed creatures, Scylla obeys
  Apollo when she isn't pursuing her own agenda.

  Dragon
  The fire-breathing Dragon is one of Ares' favorite instruments of war.
  When Ares doesn't have anything for the Dragon to do, the Dragon finds
  his own trouble.

  Talos
  Hephaestus made Talos from bronze.  Though he owes his existence to
  Hephaestus and obeys him, Talos still has a mind of his own.

  Hector
  A great Trojan warrior, Hector frequently can be found in the service
  of Aphrodite.  Ever an independent spirit, he also follows his own
  battle plan.

  Minotaur
  Half-man, half-bull, but all trouble, this beats often does Hermes'
  bidding.

  Maenad
  When whipped into a frenzy, this mad-woman tears people apart with her
  bare hands.  She is a card-carrying member of the cult of Dionysus,
  but she can also act alone.

  -- Added in "Poseidon" Expansion Pack --

  Sphinx
  Known for her difficult riddles, th Sphinx is part woman and part lion -
  a deadly combination to be sure.  When she isn't wreaking havoc of her
  own volition, she follows Hera's orders.

  Chimera
  With Typhon as a father and Echidna as her mother, Chimera's pedigree
  is impeccable.  Her sense of destruction is also well-refined.  She's
  more than willing to attack on her own, but also does Atlas' bidding.

  Echidna
  The mother of monsters (Sphinx, Chimera, Cerberus, and Hydra), Echidna has
  the face of a nymph but the body of a serpent.  Headstrong, Echidna reports
  to no one; she always acts on her own.

  Harpies
  This foursome of fearsome sisters is bent on destruction.  No one would
  dare order the Harpies around, not even a god.


 ===========================================================================
                             When Monsters Attack
 ===========================================================================

 Sorry to disappoint you, but this is not another FOX special.

 When a creature runs wild in your city and is destroying it, you must seek
 the help of a "Hero".  To do so, you will need to build a Hero's Hall for
 that Hero.  Once you do that, your city must meet the requirements for that
 Hero.  They can be found by right-clicking on the Hall.  [See note below.]

 Here is a list of the Heros you can use during the game, along with
 their requirements for their Halls.

    Hercules

    throughout Greece.  If you have a problem with Berberus or Hydra,
    Hercules is your man.
