Open translation for this passage
τὰ δὲ ἐς πόλεμον τοιάδε ἦν τοῖς Ἀχαιοῖς.
The neuter plural τὰ ... τοιάδε is an anticipatory/topic expression, with ἦν agreeing in number by notional singularity; τοῖς Ἀχαιοῖς is the dative of reference/possession. The exact syntactic relation of τὰ to τοιάδε is somewhat elliptical.
