""Gods of Olympus" makes the Hellenic faith actually playable and adds lots of new features and three different subgroups: - Hellenic the official faith which worships gods such as Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Minerva, Mercury, Vestaanyone (except women) can hold both landed titles and temples it has its own head of religion called the Pontifex Maximus, elected by a council of Pontificesthe Pontifex Maximus can grant invasion casus belli to characters with high Pietas - Mysteries the minority branch of the religion which mainly worships Orpheus, Isis, Serapis, Mythras, Cybelis, Bacchus special intrigue events (TBD) temples held by anyone (both men and women) holy sites (WIP: Alexandria, Rome, TBD) - Sol Invictus the "monotheistic" branch of the faith, which worships the sun god Sol Invictus (Undefeated Sun) the head of religion is similar to the caliph and it's inherited from father to son can declare "great holy wars" against other faiths holy sites (TBD) The mod is still in early alpha."

_______________________________

1. Hellenic refers to the pre-Roman period. Based on what else you've written, it should be Hellenistic.
2. The gods you list are all Roman gods, tied to Cultus Deorum. A Greek would not refer to Zeus as Jupiter, even in discussion with a non-Greek Roman.
3. The Pontifex Maximus is, of course, Roman.
4. You have a good idea with the Mystery religions, it's Mithras though.
5. Sol Invictus better means Unconquered Sun.

I suggest you rename the mod to Gods of Rome or Cultus Deorum.

Thanks, blessings.
