Battle of Troy Greek Chess Set Inspiration
|
betrayed as Menelaus rages to return his queen. Now two great legions stand poised on the brink of war. May the
Gods be with you as you choose sides in an alliance that will soon drown the city of Troy in a sea of blood, all for
the love of a woman.
The Trojan War was a fierce battle in which The Greeks besieged Troy for nine years. It finally ended when the
Greeks, pretending to depart, left behind a huge wooden horse. The Trojans, seeing the horse as a "trophy" of
sorts, wheeled it into the city. However, Greek warriors hidden inside the horse crept out during the night, opened
the gates of the city to the Greek army, and sacked Troy.
When you play, things will be different, right? No way you fall for that hokey Trojan Horse trick, right?
The Battle of Troy Greek Chess Set makes an ideal gift for the Ancient Greek or Military history buff. It'll be a
unique and thoughtful present that surely will be cherished for years to come. Buy one today!
