Pajamarama the Hittite vs Pharoah Tutt the Great

 The temple walls at Amn Sher relate the tale of Pharoah Tutt the Great and his meeting with Pajamarama, King of Hittites.   The priests of Amun were generally complimentary, apart from the sinister carving of "Tutt, Tutt, what a Great beer gut" at the base of his stelae.

Egyptian Omens  3  -1 courage  slithering snakes.

Sacrifices -1VP  evens no god cards.  Oil on water.


Hittite Omens  7 confident. 

8  black cat.  Bast.  3 god cards.

30 points of fine Tutting Egyptians.  



Against the same number of Pajamary Hittites.

First of three jokers for the Hittites.  The gods grant Good going, a free move.

The drilled Nile boys advance.

Another joker Fear, courage test. Passed by Pajamarama...

Whoever taught the Pharoah to shoot is about go lose his penis sheath.  Shocking dice.

The Egyptians get those big shields up.

Hittite Joker

Easy going.  Guided by Hermes.  Bonus move

The Egyptian chariots shooting and retreating.  Tough boys those Hittites. 

Good looking game though. 

Close fought too.

We drive back the javelinmen and Hittite archers but I expected better of my shooting dice.

One for the triumphant reliefs.   Self publicity hero shot.

Can't fight those boys with my Skirmishing carts!  Back battered.
!
End game.  Worked well.  I think we have a nice game here, all credit to the Hittite king of course.
