Memnon Vs Achilles - Total War Saga: Troy Cinematic Legendary Duel

[@baronessofleeds1866]

Two demigods Achilles: son of the sea nymph Thetis (daughter of sea god Nereus), and Peleus, king of the Myrmidons. Memnon: son of Tithonus( Trojan prince) and Eos, the goddess of the dawn. The goddess of dawn would mourn the death of her son, and the morning dew was formed from the tears of Eos.

Huh? Memnon was Ethiopian king.

[@EudaimonV]

@@Bobbfj Huh.... No he is NOT. Do some research Educate Yourself. You are confusing the country we know today as Ethiopia South of Egypt. With the mythical kingdom of Aethiopia in the far East. It's clear you have not read the Epic Poems.

[@Bobbfj]

@@EudaimonV the land called Aethiopia was referring to modern day Sudan and Ethiopia. Sudan and Ethiopia are to the east of Greece Homer lived in Asia Minor, which was still Greek controlled at the time. At this time the Kushites king piye conquered Egypt and parts of Libya. The epic concerning memnon were written during the reign of King taharqa the African king who ruled egypt and kush. That’s why memnon is referred to as the Ethiopian king who ruled over egypt. You’re the one who clearly hasn’t read the epics.

[@EudaimonV]

@@Bobbfj you are confused. Memnon does NOT exist in African history mythology or culture. The kingdom of Aethiopia in Hellenic mythology is at the far East not South . Herodotus would later change the location of Aethiopia from East to South of Egypt and Libya.

[@Bobbfj]

@@EudaimonV Egyptian priest referred to the 25th dynasty as the Aethiopian dynasty’s. Esarhaddon the Assyrian king who lived during the time of homer wrote in his own records about deporting all Aethiopians from Egypt. He was talking about black skinned Africans when using that term over 300 years before Herodotus time.

[@yonas2828]

In Greek mythology, Memnon (Greek: Mέμνων) was an Ethiopian king and son of Tithonus and Eos. As a warrior he was considered to be almost Achilles' equal in skill. At the Trojan War, he brought an army to Troy's defense and was killed by Achilles in retribution for killing Antilochus. He is an Ethiopian king. Ethiopia has big histories like this, but is not given much credits.

[@EudaimonV]

Well you are Wrong. First of all Ethiopia didn't exist as a country back then like we know it now. The word is Aethiopis. Aethiopis is a Hellenic word used by Hellens only, to describe the people living South of Egypt because of there black skin complexion. It is not a country. Aethiopis means Burnt Face. The people living there didn't call themselves Aethiopians. Secondly Memnon is not described being an Aethiopis black or African hero. No one describes Memnon being Aethiopis. He is NOT in African or Ethiopian history mythology or culture. Glad I could help.

@@EudaimonV You should change your name to Based Angel because that was incredible

[@EudaimonV]

@@Byzantine_Orthodox_Christian it's the truth though. And I get it the truth hurts, but you'll get over it. Memnon is NOT described being a black African Aethiopis Man. What is your thoughts in it??

[@Byzantine_Orthodox_Christian]

@@EudaimonV I was agreeing with you lol

[@EudaimonV]

@@Byzantine_Orthodox_Christian Aaaa Ok sorry. I thought it was sarcasm. Because it's funny how Afrocentric people believe that Hellenic civilization and culture is African. It's ridiculous. Totally Unethical. Glad you liked it.

[@ostaruempire]

I always wonder how the heck do you get the in game voices and perfect cinematic angles

[@SandokanBattles]

Game voices are in the game and cam angles you just need to turn on free camera, thats all greetings

[@MedjayofFaiyum]

@@SandokanBattles How does one get free camera? How to activate it?

[@SandokanBattles]

@@MedjayofFaiyum you need to find script file, open it and find line camera defoult, then change line there on 2

[@Seaserpent1105]

That's how Memnon met his end.

[@Factaly320_77]

You back in youtube !!! 👍🥳 I follow you from France 🇫🇷

[@SandokanBattles]

Thank you :)

[@EastJazzman]

Achilles would have been honored if he meet his end by the hands of Memnon instead of Paris

[@ilikebreadandcheese1136]

This was amazing. I did not expect it to be this good !

[@rayhansakib5273]

There were many characters missing in Troy 2005

[@pachomiussinanicus1728]

this is what happen when u are not wearing armor

[@EudaimonV]

Who was not wearing armor???

[@pachomiussinanicus1728]

@@EudaimonV Memnon, obviously, haven't you watched the video?

[@EudaimonV]

@@pachomiussinanicus1728 This video is from a game. IN the original Hellenic story Memnon is NOT described being a African Nubian Sub Saharan character. Memnon's parents are Tithonus a prince of Troy brother to Priam king of Troy and Eos a Titaness in the Hellenic pantheon who LEFT Troy and TRAVELED to her domain to the East ➡️. The Mythical kingdom of Aethiopia has nothing to do with Africa. And in the epic poems Memnon is given an armor forged by Hephaestus.

[@BeholdABlackWolf]

@user-alb2ys2ps8t well that's good to kno

[@yumasdikalianputra7415]

Well at least Hollywood trying to depict Homer's illiad as best they could. Yet it is lacking in some department such as the absence of Diomedes, Aeneas, and Rhesus

[@nilotpalsarmahsarma8344]

Nice

[@AgainTheTruth]

Unfortunately it's also misleading. But overall a good game.

[@franklinfisher497]

I am a college student and I am starting a YT channel. I am making some alt history videos and I was wondering if I can clip some videos from your total war videos to use for my own. I would credit you and it would only be short clips. I really like the way you frame your battles and I love your videos.

Well it looks like Achilles is better.

Everything good, good game and all. But one meager mistake is Memnon. Memnon is NOT described being a African Nubian Sub Saharan character in Greek mythology or culture.
