I started a new thread, to help keep the other on course,
as well as to give focus to this one ...
Deities, Demigods & Heroes Revisted!

Those using add on stuff like the UA should simularily "up" heroes & gods with Weapon Specialisation, (probably for all applicable weapons), ect. Arthurian knights
(based off later tales rather than earlier anyway) would mainly be cavaliers(blek!!) for example.
Man, that's just the beginning of the fun!
Think of all the classes in OA, as well as all the classes in Dragon magazine.
I'm guessing that all of the Celtic deities (as well as the Finnish? Native American? Norse?) would be barbarians, instead of fighters ....
following that article "The Real Barbarians", in Best of Dragon V, as well as Dragon 72.24.
As an example, Apollo would likely have levels in the Oracle class, and the Archer class (if that was used in lieu of weapon specialization with the bow), as well.
As a base, I would guess that one would keep the total levels for a hero or a deity a constant,
and go in and tailor from there.
If anyone has any ideas / examples / questions ... please send!
Thanks for reading!
