These stats are based on the research of the appropriate temple technologies that improve priests.

You can only have one hero at any given time. All heroes have a radius of about 6 tiles. Warrior heroes provide all units in their area of influence with 5 morale points. This means those units take only 50% of the damage they normally would.

Citizen

These stats are based on the research of the appropriate hospital technologies that improve citizens. For example, a game that starts in the Dark Age (V) would give you citizens with 155 HP, but they do not gain 200 HP. On advancing to the Imperial Age (VIII) until you research the appropriate technology at the hospital. Citizens in Pre-Industrial attack seems to ignore the target unit’s armor, so logically they don’t do a regular damage type as is implied by their attack animations. So while a citizen appears to be using a spear [Prehistoric-Middle] or bow [Renaissance-Industrial], only in WW1 to Nano does the citizen do damage correlative to these attack types. Without extensive testing, it’s impossible to tell whether certain units have resistance to citizen attack, but with current information, assume that citizens do their prescribed damage according to attack only in Pre-Industrial, gun damage in other ages. Citizens also appear to have small attack multipliers against some units.
