Product details

Background & context

The Achaeans, also known as Mycenaeans, were the dominant power of the Aegean Bronze Age and utilized light chariots as an important means of warfare. The characteristic four-spoked wheels of the Achaean chariot were found in similar form among many peoples of the Eastern Mediterranean. In Homer's world, at the time of the Trojan War, chariots were a sign of rank and prestige - heroes like Achilles or Hector rode into battle in the Iliad. Archaeological finds from Mycenae and contemporary pictorial sources confirm the use of these light vehicles in battles of the late 2nd millennium BC.

On the tabletop

Achaean chariots of the Aegean Bronze Age carried a driver and a single heavily armed warrior. In Hail Caesar this metal chariot with two unarmoured horses serves a Mycenaean army. On the broken ground of Greece it was used less for breaking through than for bringing the warrior forward quickly and for pursuit, and that is how you use it on the table. Two versions of the warrior are included, so you choose who stands beside the driver.
