Border Skirmish is the first scenario of the Egyptian campaign in Age of Empires: Mythologies. It is played on a 12x12 sized map.

Intro[]

Deep in the desert west of Memphis, capital of the Lower Kingdom.

Ruthless bandits strike from the burning sands of the desert. The heroes Thutmose and Hatshepsut tire of these cutthroats. Can the forces of civilization stand against Set's consuming chaos?

Intro[]

The desert southwest of Memphis

Commander: Murderous bandits have been spotted hiding in the desert! They've slain our friends in the past. Today... we return the favor.

Scout: Sir! Enemy cavalry ride in from the northeast!

Commander: Raiders! Fate's wicked eye is upon us. Rally the spears. These cutthroads will be dead by midday.

Oracle: Each Turn, you can take one Action with each of your Units. With each Action a Unit may Move and then act. Move your Units to advance on your enemies, and then Attack them from adjacent tiles!

Outro[]

Commander: Form up men, our lord and Pharaoh walks among us! Behold the divine presence of the Great Thutmose!

Thutmose: At ease, commander. Formality chafes me on the battlefield. Explain the situation quickly.

Commander: My lord, we have routed the bandits and await your orders.

Thutmose: Bandits? I think not. Mere bandits would not be this organized... I will ride to Thebes and mobilize an elite force to exterminate these invaders from our sacred lands. Guard this outpost with your life, commander. We would be foolish to think our foes will not return.
