Lemming & IronCrest
Hey IronCrest, how about we dive into the epic saga of the Trojan War? I've always imagined what it'd be like to sprint across those dusty plains, while you can give me the nitty-gritty on every battle strategy—sounds like a perfect mix of adventure and history!
Ah, the Trojan War—my favorite dusty battleground! Picture this: a Greek phalanx, each hoplite with a bronze shield, tightly packed, moving in perfect rhythm. The Greeks relied on that phalanx to push against the Trojan walls, while the Trojans used archers from the walls, launching arrows in a deadly volley. The Greeks’ counter was the famous “shield wall” technique, rotating shields to keep the line unbroken, while the Trojans tried to break the line with spears at the gap. And of course, the clever subterfuge of the wooden horse—a classic example of psychological warfare, not a battlefield tactic. If you ever need a step-by-step playbook, just ask; I’ll annotate each maneuver in painstaking detail, no stone left unturned.
