Someone has Egyptians from Essex so I went with Early Hebrews. I am not sure about their viability against the Egyptians without some divine intervention, but I am looking forward to seeing these models in the flesh. Having got a Hebrew army I can confirm it's a challenge to play with! The reliance on a lot of fast Ax combined with a high aggression factor of 3 is generally a great recipe for being stomped on in good going by any decent troop type. At least against the NKE your Ax can take on the Lch on equal terms and you have some Wb to threaten the Bd, plus their Bw could be a soft target? Alternatively if someone has some Assyrians and then you could combine with the Egyptians against them? At least that's semi historical, for Judah rebelled against Assyria during the reign of King Hezekiah in about 701 BC and the account of this rebellion, in the bible in 2 Kings 18, reveals that Judah appealed to Egypt for military aid during the conflict, though it didn't work out well as Egyptians were defeated. And of course it's all later than the Early Hebrew army. |

Yes, I regularly play my Early Hebrews against Philistines (3 LCh, including the General) as an "Introductory" game. Most people figure it out and send Aaron fleeing back to the hills he came from at some point. Someday I will finish the Fourth Philistine chariot for 3.0 compliance...
Any army built around 3Ax is a patsy in good going.
