Gameplay
Hyperion's benefits are tailor-made for players pitched against enemies who favor myth units. His most notable benefit is the Heroic Renewal technology that enables heroes to regenerate hit points. This makes them last longer in combat, especially against the strongest myth units, and saves the player the trouble of training more of these expensive units. This combines well with Prometheus' Heart of the Titans technology which allows players to spam heroes much more quickly. Sons of the Sun also upgrades all of the player's Oracles to their hero variant and makes all future Oracles heroes as well, making them even more efficient as scouts. Lastly, Siege Biremes will be able to shoot fireballs at their targets via the Pioneer of the Skies technology, making them all the more devastating.
Hyperion also provides the Satyr, a fragile ranged myth unit with a strong ranged attack that can penetrate several units at once, especially when upgraded with the Gemino myth technology. His god power, Chaos, can be used to drive enemy armies into madness, causing them to attack each other. While its duration becomes shorter when targeted on larger hordes, it can be devastating when used on an army consisting of either different types of human soldiers that can easily counter each other (e.g. ranged soldiers and cavalry together) or myth units with highly damaging special abilities, namely Medusai. Oranos players can take this even further by worshipping Hekate in the Mythic Age, as her Lampades myth unit can supplement the Chaos god power's potential. Furthermore, worshipping Hyperion and Hekate together will allow the player to have hit point regeneration for the majority of their forces, including the Titan and excluding only ships and siege units.
Mythology
"A Titan and god of watching, he fathered Helios (the sun), Eos (the dawn), and Selene (the moon). His name means "he who goes before the sun," related possibly to being the father of Helios or the visibility that precedes the sun's approach."
