Units of Egypt




Peasants	Attack: 3 Defense: 3 Price: 120	Combat bonus in deserts Poor morale Can sap	Most basic unit of all. However, it's useful if you want to "transfer population" from one settlement to another (Show me How). Desert peasants are tougher. Screenshot
Nubian Spearmen	Attack: 5 Defense: 8 Price: 230	Can form phalanx Combat bonus in deserts Poor morale Bonus vs. cavalry Can Sap	The Nubian Spearmen are like the roman Town Watch - very useful outside of the battlefield, when you need someone to guard a town (leave at least 4 regiments of Nubian Spearmen, they'll be okay), or on the battlefield, when you need to distract an enemy group, lure them into a trap or something. Screenshot
Nile Spearmen	Attack: 7 Defense: 13 Price: 360	Can form phalanx Bonus vs. cavalry Combat bonus in deserts Can sap	Good attack infantry for starters. Screenshot
Desert Axemen	Attack: 10 Defense: 18 Price: 560	Combat bonus in deserts Good morale Can sap	Very good infantry, should be your main one, together with some good spearmen like the Nile Spearmen and the Pharaoh's Guards. Actually it can take out even Cataphracts. Screenshot
Pharaoh's Guards	Attack: 12 Defense: 19 Price: 620	Can form phalanx Bonus vs. cavalry Combat bonus in deserts Good morale Powerful charge Good stamina Can sap	The elite spearmen of Egypt. Screenshot



Nubian Cavalry	Attack: 9 Defense: 10 Price: 420	Can form wedge Combat bonus in deserts Powerful charge Good morale	A common type of light cavalry, armed with spears. Good for the beginning. Screenshot
Desert Cavalry	Attack: 7 Defense: 11 Price: 540	Can form wedge Combat bonus in deserts Effective against armour Fast moving	To be used with the Nubian Cavalry for best balance. Screenshot
Nile Cavalry	Attack: 9 Defense: 13 Price: 570	Can form wedge Combat bonus in deserts Good morale Powerful charge	Slightly better than the previous ones, it will have to be your main cavalry before the Chariots come. Screenshot
Egyptian Chariots	Attack: 12 Defense: 1 (Hit Points 3) Price: 660	Special attack Combat bonus in deserts Frightens nearby enemy infantry Good morale	The pride of the Egyptian army - their chariots. They are to be respected and even feared by weak infantry and cavalry. Screenshot
General	Attack: 12 Defense: 13 (Hit Points 2) Price: 830	Can rally nearby troops Combat bonus in deserts Powerful charge Good stamina Good morale	Unfortunately this general's unit sucks...to be compensated by the chariots? Screenshot
Camel Archers	Attack: 3 (Missile 7) Defense: 2 Price: 420	Can form Cantabrian circle Combat bonus in deserts Scare horses Good stamina	Light support missile cavalry, mounted on camels. Screenshot
Egyptian Chariot Archers	Attack: 9 (Missile 13) Defense: 1 (Hit Points 2) Price: 570	Special attack Can form Cantabrian circle Combat bonus in deserts Frighten nearby enemy infantry Fast moving	The renowned Egyptian Chariots also can be fitted with good archers, and they then become a terrible pair with the latter, causing their ennemies to flee in panic. Screenshot



Bowmen	Attack: 3 (Missile 7) Defense: 2 Price: 250	Combat bonus in deserts Can use flaming missiles Fast moving Can sap	The most basic archers (their stats don't change for all factions). To be replaced by the Pharaoh's Bowmen. Screenshot
Pharaoh's Bowmen	Attack: 9 (Missile 14) Defense: 13 Price: 680	Combat bonus in deserts Long range missiles Can use flaming missiles Good stamina Good morale Can sap	One of the best archer units in Rome: Total War. They can shoot far and defend themselves if the need arises. Screenshot
Skirmishers	Attack: 3 (Missile 4) Defense: 4 Price: 270	Combat bonus in deserts Bonus vs. elephants and chariots Can hide in long grass Fast moving Can sap	Usual javelin-throwing skirmisher unit. Screenshot
Slingers	Attack: 3 (Missile 4) Defense: 4 Price: 150	Combat bonus in deserts Fast moving Can sap	Usual slinger unit. Weak. Screenshot



Onagers	Attack: 53 (vs. Building 70) Defense: 10 Price: 720	Area attack Very long range Can use flaming missiles Can't hide Inaccurate against troops	The last attribute is totally unjust. These machines are priceless whe taking cities because they are able from a safe position to devastate enemy forces which are behind the walls, leading to panic. With luck and skill you can exterminate half the enemy army before going in. Screenshot
Heavy Onagers	Attack: 63 (vs. Buildings 110) Defense: 10 Price: 930	Very long range Can use flaming missiles Can't hide Inaccurate against troops	Same as for Onagers, only these are even more powerful! Screenshot
