WarGods of Ægyptus (2002)

About this game

War Gods of Ægyptus is a game in which players simulate the climactic battles between the warring Harbingers of the Antediluvian Age. Each player creates his own Harbinger, as well as an army of loyal soldiers to follow him into battle. The game is played on a tabletop, using metal miniatures to represent the Harbinger and his army. Each player collects and paints his own army of miniatures, then matches wits against an opposing player's army.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 3.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
