"It is the Antediluvian Age...
the time after the fall of Atlantis and before the destruction brought about
by the Great Flood. It is a time when the Children of the Gods still walked
the earth, and fought great wars for their creators. To lead them in battle,
the gods invested certain mighty mortals with a portion of their own power -
the Harbingers. On the bright sands of ancient Aegyptus, the Harbingers and
their armies made war.
"WarGods of Ægyptus"
is a game that re-creates these battles, using metal miniatures on a tabletop.
Each player collects and paints his own army, The Children of the Gods -- mortals
made in the image of the proud gods of Ægyptus... Anubis, Bast, Horus,
Set, Ptah, Khanum, Sebek, Thoth, Isis and Osiris. To lead the army, each player
creates a Harbinger... the Fist of the Gods, the mightiest warrior of the Antediluvian
Age!
WarGods is a great game that plays
well and has a lot of interesting ideas. The miniatures are first rate - before
forming their own company the sculptors worked on miniatures and miniature ranges
for the largest companies in the industry. And it shows. They know how to design
beautiful miniatures, and they are cast crisply, with little to no flash. And
since the miniatures are 28mm in scale, they work will as interesting units
in other games systems.
A real pleasure to paint and play
and inexpensive to get involved with, WarGods of Ægyptus
should be a game your gaming group will enjoy. And watch this space for WarGods
of Olympus, their Greek mythology expansion!
