{{user commentary|
Most Bulwark units have mediocre or average [[speed]]. Ergon may be a good main or support hero on maps with lots of [[terrain]] with movement penalty.

The [[Pathfinding]] specialty means that the movement cost for all terrain types will be 5 movement points less compared to any other hero with non-native units with the equivalent Pathfinding skill. For example, at Expert [[Pathfinding]], it costs Ergon 95 points to move across Swamp terrain and 80 points for all other terrain types. Non-specialty heroes with Expert [[Pathfinding]] require 100 movement points to cross Swamp terrain and 85 movement points for all other terrain types.

== Trivia ==
* His [[Pathfinding]] specialty is a nod to [[Barbarians]] starting with a bonus to movement on a rough terrain (in ''Heroes I'') / a Pathfinding skill (in ''Heroes II'').

BLauritson: Added explanation of how the Pathfinding specialty works by comparing movement point costs to other heroes with the Pathfinding skill but not the specialty.
