Hero Dashboards
Each hero below is shown as printed on the dashboard: the hero's name and printed number, the trait line along the bottom of the dashboard, and the ability text in the right-hand panel. The dice grid sits in the middle panel. Its column headings are not visible in the photographs, so the grid is given row by row as printed, with the coloured numbers 7 to 1 (or 6 to 1, or 5 to 1) that run alongside the rows. A cell marked [?] could not be read with confidence.

Sceptre of Hephaistos (talent, printed with an hourglass icon and an "A" marker)
In order to use the Sceptre of Hephaistos, Agamemnon must be the first unit to activate in your turn.

Diomedes rows 4 to 6 are too small to read in either photograph; the values are left unread rather than guessed.
Gaps
- Activation cards not included. The expansion's 18 activation cards were not photographed in any source reached, so their text is missing from this file.
- Dice-grid column headings not visible. The dashboards were photographed without the column labels, so each grid is transcribed row by row. Cells marked [?] are the only cells not confirmed by a second reading.
- Icon meanings. The hourglass, lightning and star icons and the "A" marker are transcribed by shape. Their meaning is defined by the base game's rules, not by these photographs.
