Gameplay

Nemean Lions are quite powerful in combat, with a large attack and high hit points. As such they can defeat human soldiers with ease, though like all myth units they are vulnerable to heroes. Also they have high pierce armor allowing them to shrug off archer fire, and since they inflict crush damage, they can also tackle buildings, if necessary. Their special attack, coupled with their durability and damage, means they need little micromanagement. However, their low hack armor can be problematic if they run into stronger myth units or heroes with high hack attack.

Mythology

"◆ Scientific Name -- Leo Biaxomus
◆ Size -- 6000 lbs.
◆ Diet -- Carnivore
A large and ferocious lion that lived on the plains of Nemea, it terrorized the area and could not be killed by normal men, who ran in fear from its mighty roar. The first labor of Heracles was to kill the Nemean Lion. When Heracles discovered his arrows and other weapons had no effect on the beast, the hero closed with it and used his incredible strength to strangle it. He skinned the beast and returned with its skin as a cloak. Heracles was thereafter depicted wearing the cloak of the Nemean Lion."

Trivia

The Colossus, as referenced by its specific technologies, is based on Talos, a giant, bronze Automaton who patrolled the island of Crete.
The Colossus is named after one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Colossus of Rhodes, a giant bronze-plated statue of the sun god Helios.
The Colossus originally had the second highest number of hit points of any myth unit that can be trained at a Temple. As of Tale of the Dragon, it only has the third-highest hit points.
During development, the Colossus did not exist, and its role was instead filled by the Golem.
