Hello all,

New to FoG, and looking for some help.

My wife has some interest in playing, she wants to play an Egyptian army. I was wondering which books would be most useful for this in the FoG line and any others as well.

Also if anyone knows of a good set of Learning Scenarios for FoG that would be great as well.

Thanks for the help,
Lee

Swifter than Eagles which is due out soon (ish) has the Egyptians. As for learning scenarios I would say the best place to learn is a club (So where are you?) or if you don't mind learning by your mistakes a competition.

There are a number of game write ups in the AARs section here that could be followed if the game is of interest and you have the troops. Also they will generally show where the players that originally did them made tactical and, just as importantly, rules mistakes.

You assume she wants to play the fancy chariot and fancy headgear Egyptians

Doesn't everybody? Wouldn't want to use the later rubbish

Immortal Fire has one late Egyptian list, but it's propably not worth buying the book for one list.

If you mean the 26th Dynasty doodah thing one, then yes, I would say it is. If I remember correctly then that is the one with the Armoured Spearmen, so is probably the best Egyptian going!
