Greeks

Hiya, I was just wondering how I can get a Greek or Roman costume for my characters. I like the face-helm the main hero in the blue and red wears on the cover of the box, a sort of Greek helm but with no back to it.

That face plate will likely never be available to us. It's a signature item of Statesman, the iconic hero of this game. There is a set of Roman armour available once you complete the Imperious Task Force in Cimerora. To get there go to the university in Steel Canyon (if you're a hero). In the library to the right of the entrance will be a contact that puts you on a story arc that eventually lets you enter Cimerora.

You can get a code for the Mac Edition and apply it to your account. This unlocks the special items for that edition. The Valkyrie costume pieces have some very roman looking pieces, including a face mask that is very similar to Statesman's.

You can buy either the full edition (with 30 free days), or the Item Pack alone:

The wiki page doesn't show the face mask by itself but it is available. I can get a screenshot of one of my characters with it if you want, I even have an evil Statesman costume copy.

Note that the Broad Sword and Dual Blades powersets include a number of Greek and Roman-inspired swords, not counting the unlockable Cimeroran models.

Funny note, the original lead designer of the game (the now infamous Jack 'Statesman' Emmert) was a major in Greek mythology, and it shows.
