Egypt is a fairly well rounded jack of all trades faction, with a definite focus on chariots and archers.

Egypt starts the campaign with all of Egypt in its control, along with Jerusalem,Cyprus(Salamis),and Sidon. Egypt should first take Petra and Bostra, due to the fact they are meagerly defended rebel settelemants. It could also be advantagous to gather a force and take Halcarnassus in Asia Minor.
