why did hector go down the wall to fight a guy? What is the point of having a giant wall if youre just gonna go outside? Just shoot him with arrows you dumb fuck.
>>220723177This is the sort of retarded shit you get confused by because you just watch the shitty movie without reading the Iliad
>>220723177where were the ditches?
>>220723233they had a giant wall you dont need ditches. when it rains the ditches fill up and stink
Glory, honor, reputation, justice, you know, things we forget about in the modern age, higher ideals
>>220723270>giant wallit becomes gianter when you have a ditch in front of it.>fill upthat's called a moat and is even better.
imagine if they all threw custard pies at him from atop the walls LOL
>>220723327whats your obsession with moats? surely it weakens the integrity of the wall and allows sappers better access
>>220723270you always need ditches
>>220723177Paris was all out of dicks to suck and shit to eat so somebody had to step up.The real question is how did a king take back that cumslut who ran away with anpther man? Maybe it's a greek tradition to have your wife wetted by your enemies and actually there is some substantial evidence that points to that, but yeah. Strange.

>>220723640Kek
>>220723177in the iliad hector ordered his men to camp outside the walls, and as their leader, he had to be there. achilles wasn't fighting at this time. when achilles came for revenge, hector ran away but was tricked into making a stand against achilles by athena, who was disquised as deiophobos, hector's brother. hector thought the two of them would beat achilles. when he stopped to fight, athena bounced and left hector alone. so he already was beaten mentally by that point.simple as.
>>220723177>doesnt know what a champion isit is said that in the bronze age armies about to battle might select a champion each to fight in one to one combat, the winner would win the battle and the losing side surrender or flee.No one knows how true this is, but it also appears in the Bible (David, Goliath), so at least the idea was common.
>>220723684running away like a coward in front of his men lmao at least he could have gone inside the city kek
>>220723684I fucking love Athena. Especially in the Illiad and the Odyssey

>>220723835she is the handwave to any unbelievable situation>why would the Trojans just accept the horse>Athena sent snakes to convince them it was protected by the gods>how is Odysseus ever going to escape Calypsos island?>Athena makes Zeus send Hermes to order her to let him go>how could Odysseus survive in the open ocean without a boat?>Athena hardens his resolve>when he arrives on the rocky coast wouldn't he just die?>Athena controls him to grab the rocks quickly before the waves dash him on them>why would Nausicaa just accept him and not run away?>Athena puts bravery in her heart>arent the suitors going to just kill him when he shows ups?>Athena disguises herself as an old man and helps him, tells Telemachus that hes coming and to prepare arms.actual Deus ex Machina

>>220723177Hector was also a blessed by gods undefeated fighter, he had aura to maintain.
>>220724039Greek Gods were retarded
>>220723233That's why they lost, they didn't dig the ditches.
>>220723968It really was easier when everything was the will of the gods.
