War Gods of Egyptus is a game that re-creates battles, using metal miniatures on a tabletop, that each player collects and paints. The miniatures are catergorized into armies; each army represents one of the 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! And then they do battle accordingly to the rules of Wargods.

[edit] Setting
The world of Wargods of aegyptus is set in the time after the fall of Atlantis and before the Great Flood. It is a time when the Children of the Gods still walked the earth along with men and fought great wars for their creators.

[edit] Anubi
Created by the the jackal-headed God, Anubus, the Anubi are a people with a doomful disposition, for they look upon the world with sulfurous yellow eyes which gazes upon a world that is teetering on the brink of unavoidable collapse. This perception infects their every thought and action. A joyous moment is a rare one for an Anubi. Despite their resignation to an unavoidable and bleak fate, the Anubi do not go to their end calmly and without a struggle. Instead, they strive with a tenacity born of the knowledge that life rarely lasts long, often ends painfully, and ceaseless exertion is required if one is to continue living.
[edit] Bast
Created by the cat-headed God, Bast, the Basti are a sly, amoral and pleasure-loving race. Filled with mischief and irony, their amber eyes forever scrutinize their surroundings, appraising the appearance of their fellows. The Basti put great value in beauty, and always seek to be among them. Whatever the circumstances - whether the bedchambers of a lover or the midst of a battle - the Basti take great care with their appearance. For this, the Children of the Basti are rightly considered vain.
