* Conquest is Apollo - He has a bow, he has a white horse, and if you adhere to the pestilence thingie, remember that Apollo sometimes sent plagues.
* War is of course Mars. Who else would it be if not a god of war itself?
* Famine (or Greed) could be Saturn or Pluto, both gods of wealth, though Saturn is supposed to live in Heaven/Olympus while Pluto lives in the underworld. Of course, Pluto is often conflated with Hades, so that's not entirely a certain match - but Saturn is still in the running for this one.
* Death might potentially be anyone deadly since Hades follows, but the idea is that Hades as ruler of the underworld judges - so Death could be {{TheDragon}} or {{HellHound}}, Hades' chosen man. That could possibly be Orcus, punisher of broken oaths, a quite serious offense. However, what of the horse? A green horse could mean an agricultural diety, but might also be associated with water ("riding the sea-green foam"), so that could be Poseidon or Neptune instead - "flooding the earth" and "drowning the world" in the events of the end times.
