This is just a place for us to take down notes!

Unlike the Egyptian factions of past centuries as portrayed in Age of Chariots, the Egyptian faction of Age of Empires has a wholly different pool of mercenaries. It no longer has access to Nubians, Semites, Sea Peoples or the Achaean (read: Bronze Age Greek) pools. Rather, it relies chiefly on black African levies as well as Arabs, like Aksum to the far south. However, the number of African mercenaries it can summon is far smaller: it can only raise Kushite Archers: but Kush raises all three units - Spearmen, ARchers, and Skirmishers whereas for Aksum, only Kushite Spearmen and Kushite Skirmishers are available.
