Historically inaccurate. Spartans didn't wear armor, they wore leather underpants and rushed the Persian infantries with slo-mo elegance.
Chicken Mike this is true. I was there
Me too, I was the spear.
I was Leonidas' codpiece.
Ah I see you too watched the zack Snyder documentary.
@change Mymind
And you died like a Ragdoll.
Fun fact leonidas died before his hole army did and his remaining soldiers pushed the enemys back 4 times to try and get their kings body but they eventually were surrounded and killed
Persians always win.
@@cykacookietardovic659 They lose in Platea.
cykacookie tardovic tbf Sparta only had 300 in that battle and Persians had like 5000 including some of the immortals and Sparta still put up a good fight
@@cykacookietardovic659 no persians lost against Athens in war and Athens won the war against Persians and Xerxes died bcz he was killed by his bodyguard
cykacookie tardovic Persia Houghton Greece from about 499bc to 449bc the most intense fighting was the two Persian invasions first in around 492bc then again in about 480bc the Persians lost both times and ultimately they lost the entire war

Lmao Ubisoft borrowed nearly everything from the movie 300 other than the no chest plates, and they forgot the most pivotal piece- the phalanx.
@@Eshayzbra96 lmao the movie borrowed nearly everything from history. Sounded dumb right? That's basically your comment.
@@ComeHonorBulge Wrong. It borrowed stuff from the graphic nivel by Frank Miller.
@@magnathrax7360 and Frank Miller's 300 is historical inspired/retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae.
@@ComeHonorBulge Exactly. A retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae with a lot of historical liberties. Doesn't mean the comic or the movie are bad, but they're certainly not accurate to what actually happened. And, while this game does get right a bunch of stuff (for instance, how Leonidas Is clearly +50 years old), it also takes clear inspiration from 300, and still has inaccuracies.
Gets stabbed in the stomach, stands up and kills the king.
Such a bad ass
Which king? That wasn't Xerxes bro
Not king but high ranking officer.
Not to mention the arrows, but he did not kill the king Xerxes he killed a high ranked soldier.
Evan Hindle no that was just bad... I was expecting something more epic, more action, just more
Spartans were trained for such feats

Spartans were the descents of hercules himself taught to never retreat, never to surrender, and taught that death in the battlefield was the greatest glory in his life. Spartans the greatest warriors the world has ever known. they either return to Sparta with their shields or upon them
As much as I like the story in Odyssey it would have been cool to play Leonidas with the 300 through out the whole game
wait! that ain't Gerard Butler!!!!
Pradyumn Pathak right, historically Leonidise was 60yrs old.
damn someone beat me to it lol
It was an old Nicolas Cage all along

I know it's a game, but is bronze armour really that ineffective against arrows?
Arrows are deadly af. They could pierce a multiple layered shield
If the arrows are precise yes they are. Despite having inferior weapons to the Greeks, persian archers were notorious for their accuracy so watching this makes sense if they were hitting the Spartans in the face, neck, etc.
The armor was mostly to ward off grazing blows and the splinter from metal on metal. A direct shot from an arrow with sufficient velocity could nearly any piece of armor or shield, as demonstrated by the historical Battle of Agincourt where outnumbered English troops consisting largely of archers defeated a vastly superior French army of knights armed with the strongest armor and shields of the age. Only reason we don't use bows and arrows anymore is not because they are no longer effective in dealing death, but simply because bullets are FAR more effect.
Jason Rabeiro
Guns do not require training to use. Guns are much much much more precise from first shot from a complete novice as compared to a bow. Bullets are easier to carry and you can carry a lot more. You can fire bullet after bullet after bullet with just moving a finger, as compared to loading each arrow separately and then having to aim again. You can still fire a gun even if you miss a finger or two. After shooting 300 bullets you can still shoot 1000 more. After shooting 300 arrows, well let's just say your arm will fall off (you will hurt after shooting non-stop as well.. but you can last MUCH MUCH longer)
Armor was effective against arrows. That's why they made crossbows.
This week is gunna be the longest week ever just because Odyssey comes out on Friday
I get it tomorrow
I get it tonight at 10
We get it tomorrow.. but it's gonna be the longest day ever now unfortunately
I get it tonight lol
comes out on the 4th
Wait... Xerxes wasn’t there to oversee Leonidas death?
He was
Nope, Xerxes never walked the battlefield himself, as opposed to what was shown in the movie 300
STAIN you would be piss off too if over 10000(estimated) of your mens were killed so I wouldn't say he was butt hurt more like he was mad that so much of his people were killed.
MuffinREpic More like 600,000 (600k) out of the 2million+ army of Persians died...
T3RM1NAT0R XII uhhh where did you get that number of 600k out of the 2 million died just asking ? Historically they usually exaggerate the numbers of their army back then. It also wasn't 300 spartan that held then back too just heads up not sure which record keeper wrote that unless you watched the movie 300.
Leonidas gets shot with multiple arrows, and gets stabbed through the abdomen. Yet still stands to look his enemy in the eye and kills him before succumbing to his wounds. What a fuckin badass.
Well at least the Spartans use armor and not just wearing underwear like some kind of idiots in battle.
@David -01 No, it would be suicidal.
Jason Grace But it's not working anyway xd arrows throw the chest of the breastplate wtf
Someone 1 no.
Some Vikings and Celts that could't afford armor choosed to go for the intimidation factor going in naked, but they would use shields, and of course were not entire armies lol
They did that to show that they didn’t give a shit about death....which would scare the enemy, the Spartans weren’t dumb
Someone 1 that’s what the Spartans also did
Disappointed that they didn't bring Gerald Butler to do Leonidas
The guy still sounds like him

This game was spot on about the history! Thank You for letting me see this!
"My Queen! My wife, my love"
I still get goosebumps when I hear or see that line. Probably the realist shit ever.
The old ones say we Spartans are descended from Hercules himself. Bold Leonidas gives testament to our bloodline. His roar is long and loud.
rip off from lotr
he actual said something a warming about the future of greece
Leonidas's lasts words
Something of an ongoing pet peeve of mine is ubisoft's tendency to make everyone's voices even foreign character's feel forced. Like their really just tryin to over-emphasize the accent and completely ignore how well english everyone speaks with an extremely strong accent.
Personally, I'm just happy they didn't do what they did in Unity and gave everyone an English accent even though they're French.
They were trying to get greek voice actors so some of the accents my be legit
They want to make them sound like a greeks... Why people always complaining so much
qais zhafran Reyhan
Because they sound scotish.
They tried to show how a greek person speaks english,even though they exaggerated a bit.But i do find it a bit annoying myself as well
To all the people confused why Leonidas' armor was so weak against ranged fire:
Armor was mostly to ward off grazing blows and the splinter from metal on metal. A direct shot from an arrow with sufficient velocity could nearly any piece of armor or shield, as demonstrated by the historical Battle of Agincourt where outnumbered English troops consisting largely of archers defeated a vastly superior French army of knights armed with the strongest armor and shields of the age.
Only reason we don't use bows and arrows anymore is not because they are no longer effective in dealing death, but simply because bullets are FAR more effect.
But wait, the bows that the English used at Agincourt were longbows, weren't they? And those were actually kind of ridiculous with how powerful they were, right? Were the Persian bows at Thermopylae comparable?
@@primordialbias8711 You're right, they were far more powerful than Persian bows, but a Medieval Knight's steel plate armor was also far more durable than a bronze cuirass. The Persians grew their Empire on the strength of their archers and cavalrymen so I just to wanted to explain that their bows were definitely strong enough to pierce Greek armor.
Ah. Well, alright, that does make sense.
Thats a misconception. Armor was very effective for what it does. There are French accounts before even that battle that they waded through the English arrows like it was rain. They lost the battle of Agincourt not because of the archers killing them, but because of poor decisions and the terrain. The fact that armor was so good against arrows was why the French men at arms were overconfident in that first part in that battle.
Properly made armor will not be so vulnerable to arrows.
You seem like a nice dude, Jason. Believe me when I say this isn't personal.
But you're entirely wrong. The kind of bodily protection that 'mostly warded off grazing blows' would be in a whole different category than plate armor. It's what I'd categorically call 'Light' historical armor. We're talking anything from regular civilian fabric clothing, to light or untreated leather jacks, to other forms of light linen armor. Strong piercing thrusts generally pierce such light armor. Cuts were resisted to a moderate degree by this.
In a category of 'Medium'-ish armor I'd consider something like Gambeson, thick multi-layer linen clothing, and boiled or treated hardened leather, (which itself is fairly rare in the historical record). This would provide very good protection against cuts by hand-weapons, barring larger two-handed polearms, but would still potentially be vulnerable to be punched through by strong, supported thrusts. You'd be extremely surprised how a modern analogue, a simple winter coat, protects so well against cuts, and could even limit the effectiveness of a thrust.
In the 'Heavy' category I'd put maille, scale armor/llamelar, and plate. Even going as far back as bronze armor, this is generally all but impervious to cuts, which leave only the most superficial knicks and scratches on the surface. Typical hand-weapons generally do not pierce these without extreme force, and even when they do, most often than not they go in to a depth measured in no more than a few centimeters or an inch. These are best combated by circumventing the pierce altogether with blunt-trauma weapons, or by using a dedicated thick spiked weapon to try to punch into the armor and penetrate through it.
So no. Historical bronze cuirasses of this period were not 'for glancing blows'. If you know anything about bronze you'd know it can be and is (naturally) work-hardened, which can be done even cold, (unlike with iron/steel), which happens naturally as it's hammered out in the shape of the form of the muscle cuirasse. And, as we get further into history, the cuirasses get stronger and stronger. By the time of Agincourt, which you reference, damn near no human-powered weapon would get very far into a cuirasse with any ease at all. Late cuirasse developments saw the belly bowed/bulging in a semi-spherical shape which aided further in defence and also put distance between the metal and the man's mail or padding beneath, which meant that minor penetrations would be even *less* effective.
Now, as for what happened at Agincourt? Well, any astute student of history would learn that the atrocious weather conditions seriously bogged down the French cavalry and knights atop them. It rained a lot prior, and the conditions then in that region are the same now, you get deep, thick mud that creates suction when you try to pull your foot and walk out. In other words, for a man wearing an extra 60lbs of full-body armor, it would be exhausting to walk through. Scholars have surmised that at least some portion of the French cavalry, (the horses themselves, not the man), may not have had full-body protection, and the English rain of arrows was in truth far less likely to hurt the man as it was the horse. Horses whose speed and impetus was bogged down by the conditions. Dismounted knights then were also further bogged down by the conditions. And English archers there, being lightly armored and fleet of foot, could beat down, smother and overwhelm the knights by the time they'd reached them.
Furthermore, for your viewing pleasure, these videos. Absolutely no qualitative test today has ever shown that period plate armor, from any period, could be *easily* pierced by a typical bow's arrow or a crossbow's bolt *at any decent range beyond something like 20 yards or 30-ish feet*. No, not even those powerful English warbows. As you watch these, bear in mind that as I said, most cuirasses by the 14th c. onward are bowed at the belly, giving more space between the thickest part of the cuirasse and the user. At the time of Agincourt, they also wore mail beneath it.
An excellent cuirass completely shrugs off the arrow from a 120lb english longbow. - czcams.com/video/Ej3qjUzUzQg/video.html
Relatively cheapish reproduction of a historical plate against crossbows, including a heavy crossbow which requires a windlass to load. Shallow penetrations. - czcams.com/video/XMT6hjwY8NQ/video.html
One of the typical conclusions. - czcams.com/video/D3997HZuWjk/video.html
Crossbow, (which admittedly amounts to only an 80lb or so bow). - czcams.com/video/gwKNBB9Ww2E/video.html
Some good strong bows against what I genuinely presume, compared to what the above videos have shown, is a fairly cheap, soft-ish cuirass. Most of these penetrate less than an inch into the cuirass, which wouldn't even touch the mail yet due to it's bowled shape. - czcams.com/video/KCE40J93m5c/video.html
Another - czcams.com/video/DCywaYlQxWE/video.html
Here we have a crudely shaped, (looks nothing like any armor, it's cheap mild steel) hunk of metal fixed static onto a post (human bodies give to impact, they aren't braced static), performing the role of the period plate without proper heat treatment, and even then, only a handful of the arrows actually go far enough that they'd even touch the armor beneath it. They likely wouldn't have the energy to get through the mail. czcams.com/video/q-Xp56uVyxs/video.html
Generally speaking, in rebuttal to your claim about the effectiveness of armor and plate, by the mid-15th-to-16th century, plate armor was so damn effective at protection from any common blow that rich knights literally stopped carrying shields as the armor was the shield, instead opting for more potent two-handed weapons. That says a lot.

Wasnt Leonidas one of the first to die in the final battle?
Yeah, the Spartans fought the Persians for his body until they all perished.
Someone watched the Extra Credit episodes
In that battle no, after the last stand of the 300, the remainder of the spartan military fought Persia for the remains.
Most likely also where the phrase tooth and nail comes from... Herodotus stated that the Spartans fought ‘tooth and claw’ for Leonidas’ body
Sadly he was he got hit early in the fight with a arrow in the throat when they got surrounded. The rest of the spartans fought the pesians to defend his body until they all died in a rain of arrows.
"the back of a spartan warrior never touches the ground, even in death a spartan gives his face in combat" -Kratos
Lived as a king, and died as a Spartan... but not without a fight.
So is leonidas really alexios/ kassandra's grandfather because they keep denying their spartan heritage
Yes
You can deny but blood is blood
So leonidas was king and alexios/kassandra are the heritage so technically alexios or kassandra are supposed to be the king or queen
Santiago Morales no because in the first cutscene of the game Leonidas said”I would have liked to go fishing with my son” this could possibly show myrene (alexios/kassandra’s mother) might be the last born there is a reason nikoloas isn’t the king but a general,and he was still just a general before nikoloas and myrene split. So alexios or kassandra do have royal blood but do not have the right to sit on the throne,also I think leonidas son may have died because no one mentions myrene’s older brother and in Sparta the people sometimes pick new rulers if a bloodline died and they wouldn’t have given it to myrene after her brother died because she left Sparta and her children disgraced Sparta.
We should’ve got a game about Leonidas’s life leading up to this very moment
THIS IS SPARTA !!!!
Dienekes reminds me of that spartan from 300 that went berserk when his son died
Its kinda wierd but in the movie 300
I think dienekes was stelios on that movie
So, the Spear of Leonidas is an Isu artefact. In AC origins aya said that the first hidden blade that was given to bayek killed xerxes. So maybe that means that the Spear will become the blade at some po int.
Lno 1 No it won‘t. That wasn‘t Xerxes, he didn‘t die in battle
Darius killed Xerxes with the first hidden blade, and you meet Darius in one of the DLC's

@alexgamer 155 thanks, I was not sure what he meant. I still find it annoying that they retconed the Assassin creed's lore with Origins, since it was Darius who originally had the assassin's symbol way before "the hidden ones".

Ah Herodotos… I read his book. It was a difficult one, but boy did I enjoy it.
they died for doing something great you gotta give them that even when the odds were against them and the other poeple who fought beside them

Anyone else notice how when Leonidas was hit with that last spear his stumble was the same pattern ezio had in the beginning of revelations? Even looks like him a bit too, huh.
I would like to see a movie about the Battle of Platea. THAT was a massive battle and had more importance than the Battle of the Thermopylae

their story echoes in our hearts..
Contrary to popular belief, the 300 Spartans did not face Xerxes' army alone. King Leonidas certainly did not dismiss all others because he saw fear in their eyes. Upon being betrayed by Ephialtes, and realizing they could not win, Leonidas did send the majority of the Greek forces home, but around 2,000 others did stay in one last glorious stand with his Spartans.
Jeff Galef talk about bravery. All the Greeks that stayed with the Spartans knew it would be a fight to the death but they stayed anyway.
Yep. They only retreated because Leonidas ordered them to, because while the pass was certainly lost, Greece still needed a military and since the Greeks were in heavy fighting for 2 days prior to the final day, a lot of whom he sent home were pretty much veterans at this point and were pivotal to removing Xerxes from Greece. Thankfully Themistocles was still around too.
Not 2000, 1000. 300 Spartans and 700 Thespians....
Themistocles gets very little love. He was the Leonidas of the sea. His actions in the bay were every bit as important as the Spartan anchored holding of the pass. And then, a year later, when the Spartans were working over the Persians on land, Themistocles was at sea spanking Xeres fleet, forcing him to break out and run back for Persia never to be heard from again.
jimakisspd, the numbers are debated. Could of been 1000, could of been more.
1:17 persian friendly fire
Regardless of the inaccuracy, it's still undeniably badass
Sabaton echos in my mind with the flashbacks and the conquest battles... And it gets me fuckin PUMPED!
I'd like to point out that 700 Thespians and 400 Thebes did not flee the battle as Leonidas commanded but fight until death alongside the 300 spartans

There were 2 kings in Sparta. The oracle at Delphi made the prophecy that Sparta would lose one of its kings, apparently.

Yea I questioned myself through this entire game but still it's cool I like the Leonidas flashback that's my favorite part
hehe, a new twist (just as Origins) but a very entertaining game at least.

They were already making games and promotions that we ourselves saw in Black Flag.
This may just be one of those creations. I mean seriously though..
Even if Odyssey doesn't have an extremely huge tether to AC lore, it definitely attracted us to it.
Who doesn't enjoy the prospect of playing as a decedent of the ass kickin Leonidas.
Ubisoft is taking huge strides to make their open world games a whole spectrum larger for their players, even going as far as to make their fictional, gavel wielding, corporate boogeyman seem believable.

chain mail for arrows
its that simple people

How did the arrows go through their armor?
:))))) The armor wasn't made of adamantium my friend hahahahaha, this is bronze armor, bronze armor was weakest of them all(metal armor). Arrows can pierce through shields which are thicker than the armor you wear. Arrow who didn't pierce was because of deflection and angles in the armor(as in, not a direct hit, but sideways so it slides off the armor). A direct hit from an arrow would 100% mean penetration.
Yeah it is bronze armor but Spartans had better equipment than the Persians.
Now it makes more sense :P
Their shields were highly effective at blocking arrows due to shape, and them being a thick piece of bronze with a wood back. This is the Iron Age of weapons, arrows would shred armor. Armor was used to keep grazes and give protection from non direct hits.
Just because the armour was bronze doesn't mean its made out of bronze armour you fucking idiot.
"Hold out your spear" That's not a spear, that's a spearhead. Spears got a nice pole attached to them.
Herodotos actually existed he was a greek historian that told the legend of the 300 Spartans (his real name is spelled herodotus)

im back here for 1 reason. who is that leonidas kills? in the dlc, darius tells u he killed xerxes. but i thought the man leonidas killed was xerxes. can anyone help?
It’s actually funny how much of a better true illustration of the battle than the film 300. How a game can be so much more gripping than a movie with actual actors
hmm meh 300's was better
Great, another 300 rip off. The thing is, I'm used to having my people portrayed as villains by now, but I find this extremely insulting, not to my people, but to the other brave Greeks that died that day along with the Spartans. They are given no recognition here, and they are treated as cowards, even though in reality they choose to stay behind on the last day with the Spartans. Their memory should be honored, not discarded.
Spartans are considered far cooler nowadays. The other Greeks, not so much. I’d imagine most people thought it was only the 300 Spartans.
Yes, that's the sad part about all of this.
People forget that the Spartans would declare open season on their helots (slaves/serfs) every autumn in a festival called the Crypteia. Spartan men were told to seek out and kill any helot they came across, and specifically targeted the strongest and smartest ones in order to eliminate any potential leaders in a slave revolt.
Agreed. the Spartans can kiss my ass
Well I don’t think they are portraying the others that fought with them as cowards. I see it as they were not professional soldiers, Spartans were warriors first. It’s not a slight against other Greeks but elevation of Sparta
The funny thing is I had an add about this right now
Lol leonidas stood up like "you should've gone for the head"
imagine what Europe would be like today if leonidas hadn't have battled the Persians.
Pry not that different actually.
Won't do any different, really. Some cultures would be different, yes, but for most parts, no.
Lol probably not different at all actually. And the truth is the Spartans were not freedom fighters - their society was actually far less free than the Persian Empire. Their entire economy was supported by the hard labor of an enormous class of slaves called the Helots, who the Spartans would systematically slaughter in mass once a year to control their population and limit the threat of an uprising.
The Battle of Thermopylae is a cool story - 300 Spartans really did battle a much larger Persian force (even if the movie and this game both grossly downplay how much help they had from other Greek forces) but it's getting kind of silly how folks romanticize Spartans as folk heroes because of the movie 300. People need to pull their heads out of their asses and stop taking everything they see in a movie as historically accurate.
TheFlyingCougar but you gotta admit, these Spartans are badass.
Yeah the same. Romans would still have taken over. Or Carthage were the Romans not there. Get rid of those two, plunge Europe into the Dark Ages, and they still rise out of that.
Greeks will rise again...
No. They won't.
Persians did nothing wrong
CyPrUs-_-KiLLeR-HD 01B lol Greece is fucked
