Gameplay
Like all Greek heroes, Jason is strong against myth units, but can tackle most units on the battlefield. As the first available hero for Zeus, he is critical in fighting off myth units early in the game, and for poaching early Relics.
Mythology
"◆ Age -- 22
◆ Homeland -- Iolcos, later Corinth
◆ Occupation -- Leader of the Argonauts
In fear of a prophecy that Jason would someday kill him, King Pelias of Iolcos sent the hero on the impossible quest to obtain the Golden Fleece from the distant country of Colchis. Jason ordered the construction of the great ship Argo and gathered a host of heroes, thereafter known as the Argonauts, to accompany him. After a number of adventures, including the first passage of the Symplegades (the Bosphorus), the Argonauts arrived at Colchis, believed to be somewhere on the edge of the Black Sea. King Aeetes of Colchis demanded that Jason fulfill a number of tasks to obtain the fleece, including plowing a field with fire-breathing oxen, sowing the teeth of a dragon in a field and fighting the army that rose up from them, and finally defeating the dragon that guarded the fleece itself. With the fleece in hand, Jason fled with Aeetes' daughter Medea and had many adventures on the return journey. Medea engineered the death of King Pelias, fulfilling the old prophecy. When their marriage failed, Medea took a terrible revenge, killing their sons as well as Jason's new bride Creusa. Jason was killed many years later by a timber that fell from the Argo."
