Character overview[]
Rhesus and Memnon are two new Epic Heroes from Homer’s Iliad who have come to bolster the defences of Troy in its time of great need.
Rhesus, the mighty king of Thrace, is a latecomer to Troy’s defence and has promised to repel the Greeks and conquer their strongholds. With his introduction, a new playable faction is revealed – the blood-thirsty and fierce tribes of Thrace. Rhesus’s roster is unique and relies on fierce charges and mighty chariots.
Memnon, half-cousin of Paris and Hector, is a warrior-king of the far sun-drenched lands of Aethiopia, which is a vassal state of Pharaonic Egypt. Memnon leads a horde-style military expedition to prevent the bloody assault on Troy by defeating the Achaean forces. Beginning his campaign on the island of Rhodes, he must call upon reinforcements from the Pharaoh to aid his war efforts.
