I'm back to making content again. I've always had a love for mythological topics even before getting into fantasy as a young guy. In this narrative campaign for Achilles, we're going hunting for hydras, griffins and more. I'll be giving away a copy of TW: Troy on my Discord server to celebrate us hitting 15,000 members. The CK3: Africa campaign will be out tomorrow. Make sure to check out CrashStar's RUclips page and twitter!

I absolutely loved the intro, you adding extra voice actors has really added another level to your channel, it really makes me anticipate whats to come in the video and maybe whats to come in future videos, keep it up, and great job to the voice actors.

Great to have you playing TROY!! Your people will follow you even to the Doors of Hades, oh mighty Achilles! Just remember the lessons of your adored Mother - there has to be no one challenging your dominance on the field of battle - and crush your challengers in single combat!!
Surreal with the confront challengers thing with Achilles when you confront them with the button you don’t actually declare war against them but Achilles will be gone for some turns
Nice video mate the starting of video is amazing and this campaign will be so interesting iam too happy that you are making a another total war series mate
Welcome back! Looking forward to this with the Greek Myth now in greater focus. I also as a young lad adored mythology and story telling. Are you planning to finish the Lizardmen campaign you started I'm TWWH2?
Maybe how the slingers did so well against the Centaur could be interpreted for "Roleplay purposes" to say that Ares or maybe Athena did not take kindly to Achilles not sacrificing to them despite Achilles on the warpath. So she/he strenghtend the will of the slingers to mock Achilles.
Just about to start my greek setting D+D game and one of the players is being a centaur ranger will let you know how he copes P.s. love the video keep it up big man!
Okey so I'm watching this close to a year late but it's super cool to compare what I've done with Achilles on my latest start last weekend (Mythical campaign).. I went North west instead of pushing South, after conquering the first 2 Southern cities (just like you did)... Guess what Matt!!! I made it way more difficult cause most of the factions turned against me lol!!! Gonna go back some saves and follow your Southern path... Giants it is!!! Small point though, I did get the Lesser Griffin a tad early .. and it MAULED!! hahaha keep up your videos bro, they're super awesome and informative!!
This game was free when I came out under the epic store and honestly I love it there was a glitch where you can get unlimited resources but idk if they patched it and now I’m watching this makes me want to play it again
I'd need more time with the game to give you a better response. However, I wanted mythological units from before the game was out. I never liked the half-committed "truth behind the myth" concept. This is much better.
Imagine playing Achilles for the first time. You’re testing your skills as a TW gamer and you shout “ACHILLES!”😤🔥Then immediately after, Achilles dies on your first major battle😂😔I’d quit dude…
could i point out how the enemy general was beating the SHIT out of Achilles in the first battle? I'm not a traitor or anything but jesus our boy was getting his shit rocked. 7:52. I know Achilles was winning overall but whenever we show them Achilles was getting kicked or stabbed in the chest.
In so far that it has fantastical creatures, sure? The core gameplay elements are Total War but it doesn't play like Warhammer 2 does. Tactically the battles are not remotely comparable to how I control armies in Warhammer 2. I think that statement could apply to previous Total War titles since you know, they're Total War titles.
@@SurrealBeliefs It looks like they might have re-used assets, I actually like warhammer TW but this one doesn’t feel original. There is a night and day difference between this and historical titles you silly goose.
@@yeeyee5057 Of course, it merges two fan bases and I actually like warhammer, this just feels like a reskin fortnite DLC to that. Animations and designs of some of these units looks like re used assets but hell it’s just like my opinion man so you know.

Hey
I have been waiting for another total war campaign
I love this game for being in my country. And the details of the map is amazing
I wish in ck3 you should play as the cholas if you need history I could help I also speak Tamil the native language of the region
I have been waiting for more total war videos 👌😜
It's easily one of the best intros I've seen to a lets play... Ever
Love YOUR videos and I LOVE that you follow and watch surreal! Mad respect
An angry man once said: "HECTOOOOOR!"
"FAAAACEEE MEEEEEEEE!"
"WITNESS MEEEEEEEEEE"

Wow, thank you!
Agamemnon for all of his exploits was nothing in the long shadow that Achilles cast! We all know who the men follow into battle and death.
That and Agamemnon was a complete and total asshole.
Exiting. Glad I was prepared. Who needs sleep when you get Surreal?
It's noon here in Greece
@@AlexTheDominator1453 it's night here in Asia.

Finally! I've been hoping that you would do a Mythos campaign and I'm so glad you're doing it as Achilles. I can't wait for the next part.
Great to have you playing TROY!!
Your people will follow you even to the Doors of Hades, oh mighty Achilles! Just remember the lessons of your adored Mother - there has to be no one challenging your dominance on the field of battle - and crush your challengers in single combat!!

Love the addition of the voice acting, really awesome :)
Glad you like it!
In the words of the great Brian Cox in Troy "ACHILLES!!!!!!!!!!"
You got that right!
Nice video mate the starting of video is amazing and this campaign will be so interesting iam too happy that you are making a another total war series mate
I guess it`s time to watch Troy... again...
Good to see you back Surreal, I love your content, please keep up the good work
That opening just made feel something I didn’t want but now I’m needing 🥴🥴🥴
first !! wop wop this giving me civ vibes. nice. Also the centaurs are so cool. I hope we'll see Chiron.
Welcome back! Looking forward to this with the Greek Myth now in greater focus. I also as a young lad adored mythology and story telling. Are you planning to finish the Lizardmen campaign you started I'm TWWH2?
We'll be skipping over that one. It wasn't as story based as this.
Maybe how the slingers did so well against the Centaur could be interpreted for "Roleplay purposes" to say that Ares or maybe Athena did not take kindly to Achilles not sacrificing to them despite Achilles on the warpath. So she/he strenghtend the will of the slingers to mock Achilles.
As a mythology geek I'm immediately invested.
I was named after this warrior, that is my name Achilles. I'm glad to see you play a campaign of this grate/ Legendary warrior!
Same man was named after him as well
This was an unexpected surprise! Thanks Surreal
No problem! I hope everyone enjoys my return video.
@@SurrealBeliefs HELL YEAH!!! Missed you man
Love surreal been watching for 9 years
I watched troy 2 days ago and now this comes out. Perfection
I woke up just in time for this...
Just about to start my greek setting D+D game and one of the players is being a centaur ranger will let you know how he copes
P.s. love the video keep it up big man!
Hahaha, yes, please do.
Glad you made this, I have been asking forever.
forgot how nice graphics this TW has. really fits your cinematic narrative style.
Great video really excited for the future episodes(:
Basically we could say that Mythology is like Sci-fi of 2000 yearsago!!😅
Epic intro btw!! 👌
Yay the daily grind again I always love your videos you are the best RUclipsr you should have 10 million subs
Maybe one day!
Holy-moly, that voice actor...awesome!
Love mythology, it inspired my science fantasy story

Make sure to call your enemies “A Sack of Wine”.
I am excited to see a new total war campaign by you 😄
Yeeees! Been waiting for this
Really looking forward to this ! Thank you
Hope you enjoy it!
This game was free when I came out under the epic store and honestly I love it there was a glitch where you can get unlimited resources but idk if they patched it and now I’m watching this makes me want to play it again
This the best Troy total war video
Achilles is like the ultamite warrior
Can't wait to watch siege of Troy
Climbing stairs as a centaur is simple, you ask your friends to carry you
Most underrated RUclipsr ever
I’ve been looking forward to this...
Love the episode surreal
This is just next level🤯
Great stuff! I think Phthia is pronounced "Fff-Theeah` as opposed to `Pith Theeah` with one of them awkward Greek f sounds.
I love this already!
And I now need you to replay as Odysseus since you can now have an actual monster army.
I luv the vid and keep doing the campaign
surreal i think achillies should get a fog first to stop his mood swings
love your content!
Hype for this series
I loved this game. But i could never win unless i played a troy faction
What are those Humanoid Lion men? What are they called in game? And how does one get them for your army?
I love the Greek mythology
11:32 Ah yes. Looks like wall AI hasn't changed much since old Rtw...
You're surprised me man
How huh how many things is Achilles quick at huh Surreal?
So do centaurs have 4 lungs 😂
I shall what???
Pls don't destroy me O_0
In other words, a nice unexpected video thanks :)
(Edit: a surprise to be sure but a welcome one)
This is going to be a fun series because my Irl name is Hector lmao.
@SurrealBeliefs in your opinion, is this DLC worth buying? You think it “revitalized” Troy enough to give it another go?
I'd need more time with the game to give you a better response. However, I wanted mythological units from before the game was out. I never liked the half-committed "truth behind the myth" concept. This is much better.
finally ACHILLIES!!!
Very excited I do say go for the hydra though
What mods and dlc are you using it look so cool
this is awesome
do you have similar total war style in napoleon ? . this is the most interesting ever.
This game is awesome
Ah yes the Trojan war or as friend of mine called it the world's worst divorce.
Lu bu vs achilles who would win?
Nice. Can we get a karl franz campaign when troy gets destroyed?
Done. Here you go.

Nice video
how do you get the awesome armor for achiles in campagin
Imagine playing Achilles for the first time. You’re testing your skills as a TW gamer and you shout “ACHILLES!”😤🔥Then immediately after, Achilles dies on your first major battle😂😔I’d quit dude…
I also play total war troy but my blood effects are not working :( pls help
Early squad!!
Is dlc out?
Please More Total War
Tames the monsters he defeats
who are you gonna hunt
I see Achilles, but no Patrocles, sadge
Is this a modded gameplay or real content from the dev??
Real content.
Cool intro
could i point out how the enemy general was beating the SHIT out of Achilles in the first battle? I'm not a traitor or anything but jesus our boy was getting his shit rocked. 7:52. I know Achilles was winning overall but whenever we show them Achilles was getting kicked or stabbed in the chest.
nice intro
0/10, doesn’t look like Brad Pitt at all. Jk, very excited for this series
Khuzait campaign please fam
O_O yesss
Basically this is a warhammer TW Greek mythology skin dlc, that’s just my first impression honestly.
In so far that it has fantastical creatures, sure? The core gameplay elements are Total War but it doesn't play like Warhammer 2 does. Tactically the battles are not remotely comparable to how I control armies in Warhammer 2.
I think that statement could apply to previous Total War titles since you know, they're Total War titles.
I mean warhammer is successful, but still quite different
@@SurrealBeliefs It looks like they might have re-used assets, I actually like warhammer TW but this one doesn’t feel original. There is a night and day difference between this and historical titles you silly goose.

Gameplay wise, I see it more similar to 3 kingdoms.
What do you think about troy I think it blows
I'm having a lot of fun with it -- especially with the mythology DLC coming out. I'll have a more informed opinion once I finish this campaign.
Make more like this one
Let's fucking go
someone needs to mod achilles to look like brad pit lmao
My late might shift will be less boring with your video.
also, P R O S T A G M A
yessssss
No one expect tge greek inquisitor
Ah yes mythology
Make more like this one episodes
