What made Achilles get back into the Trojan War?
Achilles and his Myrmidons were the best warriors in Greece at that time. After the falling out with Agamemnon (who took Achilles' concubine after his had to be returned to the Trojans), and Achilles' subsequent refusal to enter the battle, the Greeks didn't win a single engagement. The Greeks had been beaten back to their ships, which were in danger of being destroyed (which would leave the Greeks at the mercy of the Trojans), so Patroclus, his longtime friend and companion, convinced Achilles to let him wear Achilles' armor and lead the Myrmidons into battle. Achilles agreed, but ordered Patroclus to break off the attack once the ships were no longer in danger. But in the heat of battle, Patroclus ignored the command and he fought the Tojans back to the city gates where he was killed by Hector (who assumed he was fighting Achilles). He had killed 53 Trojans that day. Achilles, in anger, both at Hector and himself, Achilles challenged the Trojan prince to single combat, which Achilles won and then continued to lead the Myrmidons and the Achaeans to victory, ultimately dying at the hand of Paris. After the King and Achilles decided they couldn't settle their arguement, one of Achilles's closest friends stole his armor and rode into battle pretending to be Achilles. After he was killed in battle, Achilles felt he needed to avenge his fallen friend.
