For a long time Troy has been charging a huge fee to go through the strait connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Black Sea. The country of Greece is not happy about this at all. Then, on top of that, Prince Paris, a Trojan prince, just kidnapped Sparta's queen, Queen Helen. King Menelaus talked to a few of his advisors and quickly declared war on Troy. King Menelaus has sent messages to all of the other Greek kings to help him prepare for the war against the Trojans. But King Odysseus has not answered to the message. King Menelaus wants him to lead 12 warships against the Trojans so he has gone to find out why Odysseus has not answered. If Odysseus goes there will be more than 1,000 ships loaded with soldiers, horses and other supplies. So with all of these forces surprising Troy, I think the Greeks will surly have victory over the Trojans. Reported by Alex W.
