Hi all. It may sound odd, but after all these years of playing MTW, I've never played as a Muslim faction...until last night.
Boy, what I've been missing! I picked the Egyptians in MTW 1.1, and am really surprised at how good they are(I can just imagine what they're like in XL/Tyberius!).
Camel archers and warriors are truely inspiring. Although 'light' on solid infantry in Early, their desert archers in mass are a force to be reconned with.
As an aside while fighting the Byzantines in the desert, they were getting so tired chasing my nimble footed camels that I thought I could hear them 'sizzling' in their heavy armor...
Anyway, think I'll get back to my campaign and see if I can 'roast' some more Kataphratoi, he,he,he.
Cheers
Alex
