There was a set called Typhon a few years ago.

But I expect 7th Voyage will be a cracker.

In the few playtest games i played, it certainly worked.  a basic batrep can be found here:

you'll have to bear with some of the proxy miniatures *mumbles excuses*
Smile!  It's not that bad!

I'll bet the Lord of the Rings game would work for Greek Myth, with the Might and Fate to separate the heroes.  I might have to give that a try...

Exactly !

I think the LOTR rules system is one of the best and the easiest rules to learn for a battle game involving classical heroes and some kind of magic.... lol

The building of heroes could be very simple if you have an idea of how to creat a point system based on the work of the LOTR variant group (see the files section) : http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/LOTRvariants/

Special rules are a key point in the rules for heroes : Small change of the main rules to give some "power" to heroes and special beasties (gorgondes, skeleton, spirit, etc.....). :D

So they bought out the pictures from Foundry's Mythology book? That went bye-bye quicker than expected then. :o
Nevertheless, looking forward to CD's take on this. 7TV is a rather nice set of rules, and having staged an Harryhause-themed participation game a while ago, it's a good chance to dig out the figures again.

It's out, PDF only at the moment but the print copy will be at Salute...

Fantastic looking books nd the rules really capture the feel of a stop motion epic
