Have they got figs one could use as the rest of an Egyptian themed team?

Depends on your converting skills. Check here.

I'd say so, if you're willing to see it, though many are currently listed as out of stock; you can see their whole line of Asar figures right here.

- I'd say don't attach the shields on the Spearmen, and you got 6 different linemen, OS-11 through OS-16 (their part codes).

- The Melee Warriors give you 6 choices for blitzers (best being WGE-11c; 11f; and 11a with an arm twist).

- The Melee Standard Bearer and Musician (with a head turn for him) could make throwers by drilling out the standard pole and horn, respectively.

- The Harbinger of Osiris as a coach (he's got a whip, which is why I'd take him over the Master of Words or Priest of Aten, though they'd work, too; or, they could be wizards), and the Priestess of Amun as an apothecary.

- There's even an entire page of Icons & Artifacts one could use as score markers, reroll counters, etc.

The Egyptian theme wouldn't be my thing, personally. But if you were interested in it, their line is actually quite complete once you look.

EDIT -- Oh, sure... Darkson has to slip in the quick, easy answer while I'm busy typing all that out! :P

And you don't have to stick to one manufactuer. For example, Wargames Foundry have their own range ripe for conversion.

Ah I see... What a Khemri team would look like with a resurrection spell cast on them. Interesting. I gotta wonder if they get any better at picking up the ball? They look rather unarmoured, so maybe one should use the Skaven roster for these guys?

Go with the Norse roster... they might have no armor but these guys built the Pyramids -- they gotta be tough! :D

He'd actually make a great addition to Phigs Desert Dogs.
