Total War: Rome II Soundtrack - Sons of Ares

[@blakedemaria6642]

Every other Greek Hoplite unit: “Hoplites! Spearmen ready!” Spartan Hoplites: “SPARTAAAAAA”

[@marras9635]

Actually Ares represents the fury and the bloothirst, that led the fighting. Athena, however, represents the cunning and the strategy. In the mythology Athena defeats Ares in some occasions, as in the battlefield a good strategy can beat even the most powerful enemy

I do not fear lions led by sheep, I fear sheep led by a lion. -Alexander of Macedon

[@Enz01]

Yeah but romans defeated greeks in name of Mars (roman ares) so Mars>Athena

[@Hoi4o]

The "David vs Goliath" story is also a pretty good alegory for fighting smart vs fighting enraged or just relying on raw power.

[@alexathanatos3014]

@@Enz01 And Germans defeated Romans so Wotan>Mars. Your logic is funny. Plus, most Greek states were never defeated, they were allied to Rome. Macedon which was defeated was just one of the Greek states.

[@Enz01]

@@alexathanatos3014 you are so dumb. When the roman empire was defeated the main religion was christianity.

[@nadimsarieddine9835]

Damn I didn’t know keemstar fought in this battle

[@ricratos]

It was part of the WingsofRedemption wars.

[@morp9671]

WHAT, IS, UP, Hellenic nation, I'm your strategos 'Keemstaros Foniás'. _Leeeet's geeeeet riiiiiiiiiigghht,_ *INTO THE MELEE!!!* According to Wikipedia most of Keemstar's ancestry comes from Greeks and Italians so we got a Magna Graecian Hoplite on our hands.

I dont understand the hype behind jeff van dyck. It seems a bit over rated

[@totalmadnesman]

@@diadokhoi5722 Have you listened to his work? The variaty? Multiple instruments, chores, upbeat and calm? His art is not overrated, but really really good!

[@diadokhoi5722]

@@totalmadnesman yeah i never said its bad. But people say that this soundtrack sucks compared to jeff van dyck. Which i dont think it does.

[@SapereAude1490]

Does anyone know what sample libraries are used here? Especially for the brass?

[@jankucinsky2031]

I believe it's a live orchestra recording, some of them could be samples though

[@SapereAude1490]

@@jankucinsky2031 Yeah, it seems it's the Slovak National Symphony Orchestra - found it on Ian Livingstone's SoundCloud. But the brass and violins are not the difficult part - it's the ancient woodwinds - they're almost impossible to recreate with sample libraries.
