Myth and Legend - what God is Red?
So I've always enjoyed this map a lot. It's among my favourites when it comes to the NWC-made scenarios, and even one of few from RoE that kinda makes Ubi's so called HD edition enjoyable. My own favourite faction is Zeus (Teal).
It's obvious from the map editor - looking at where events are placed, timed events etc, that NWC originally intended all of the factions to be playable, but then ran out of time and made Red, Blue and Tan unplayable. Blue (Hera) even has all the timed events with her own story from the start, and feels like playing any other faction. Tan (Hades) has two intro events, but one first has to thick the box for Tan to have them in the game. No idea why NWC decided to disable a text event for a CPU-only faction. 
But who is Red? Starting in Sparta with Odysseus and Tyndareus... I would be guessing Ares due the Spartan thing, but I don't see how any of those two would be connected to him, except for being war heroes, maybe..
I love this map, and I think someone ought to update the scenario and make a proper story for Tan and Red. Has anyone done that already?
