Introduction
The Egyptians (faction colour dark yellow) are a Muslim faction, representing the Fatimid (early period), Ayyubid (high period), and Mamluk (late period) dynasties of Egypt and other Near Eastern provinces that number among the wealthiest and most profitable lands on the MTW map. Egypt can marshal some unique Mamluk and other desert-dwelling units, giving them an advantage when fighting in the Middle East and North Africa.
