I was going to respond to the recent 'Egypt Sourcebook' thread but I thought a separate thread might attract comments from Pramas and Co. :)

No details at GR's site but this from Gaming Report:

Egyptian Adventures: Hamunaptra
A Mythic Vistas Campaign Setting for the d20 System

Towering pyramids rise from the sands, speaking of the glory of kings long gone. Three mighty pharaohs, kings and gods, rule over a land divided-over nations hovering on the brink of war. Priests of mighty deities guide the lives of peasants and nobles alike, as all struggle to make the most of the fertile lands that line the mighty river Yor, whose rushing waters are at once the symbol and the source of all life. But all around, the desert grows, encroaching nearer each day to the last remaining refuge of a once mighty civilization. Egyptian Adventures allows you to play the world's most popular roleplaying game in sands of Hamunaptra, a new fantasy setting inspired by the myths, legends, and culture of Ancient Egypt. Neither the Egyptian feel nor the playability of the game has been sacrificed. The classes and races that populate the lands of Hamunaptra are still recognizable as your own favorites, yet re-imagined to convey the feel of a time of pharaohs under the shadow of war.

This box set contains three separate books, each of which contains vital setting information. From the classes, races, feats and magic of Hamunaptra, to a complete gazetteer of the continent of Khemti and a book of GM-only secrets, this box set contains all you'll need to explore the world of Hamunaptra. Battle foul beasts of the desert, excavate the curse-warded tombs of dynasties past, sabotage and spy upon the armies of rival nations, master ancient magics, or simply attempt to solve the riddle of the expanding Red Land before the desert overtakes the last, dwindling bastions of civilization. This is an age of legend. Make it your own.

Price: $39.95
Boxed Set
Pages: 256
Author: C.A. Suleiman, with Steve Kenson and Ari Marmell

A new egyptian-themed d20 sourcebook? Consider it bought. By the time it is out my party could be back to their home in a (heavily modified) Unther/Mulhorand from their visit to (equally heavily modified) Semphar and I could probably mine it for ideas at the very least.
 

Wow - a boxed set!

Is this the first d20 boxed set?

I know that the Wilderlands box set is due out at some point, but this is the first one I have seen that has a release date.

Sweet!
 


Darn it! I started running an Egypt themed game about 2 months ago... now this could have been pretty useful...

Still, it's gonna get picked up - combination of a Boxed Set, Green Ronin and Egypt is far too good to pass up! :)

Besides, I can alway slip stuff in later and pretend it was there all along...
 


Hey! A boxed set! Does it contain any mini's (mummy's etc.) or other cool goodies, or is it only to hold the three booklets together??

In any case, a good thing to try out the boxed set. I personally believe that it is way underrated as a sales vehicel. But then again, who am I....
