Egyptians
Masters of the Nile

Egyptians

Egyptians draw strength from the Nile. More food means a bigger army, and bigger storage means raiders find less to take. Nile Spearmen are cheap and sturdy, and War Chariots are built for plunder.

  • Faction bonus: 15% more food, 20% bigger storage
  • Special building: Sun Temple
  • Best for: patient, defensive players
