Charioteer Ceremonies (Troy)

Charioteer Ceremonies is a horde military building in a Total War Saga: Troy, exclusive to Penthesilea's faction.

Description[]

As with many other martial abilities, warriors of the Late Bronze Age honed and measured their chariot-riding skills through intense competition, as evidenced by depictions of sporting events on Mycenaean pottery. These races, most often held during religious festivals, were considered extremely dangerous for both riders and horses, as the wagons were prone to topple over on sharp turns or smash together in deadly collisions, inevitably adding to the spectators' excitement. Homer describes one such contest during the funeral games held for Achilles' companion Patroclus, which Diomedes won by defeating the likes of King Menelaus.
