Hm... Apep has become Wadjet? Curious... I've heard of Wadjet as being a snake, not an alligatoresque creature.

Well, a quick search of Wadjet with Yahoo, and consultation with Spined Scythe's Egypt God(dess) List confirms that Wadjet is a cobra goddess that protects Lower Egypt. I thought she had replaced the Apep since it's not on the list, but in was in the screenshots two weeks ago.

Wadjet might just be a name change, it might be a graphics change too, or it could be a totally new unit. I'm guessing it's not since it's the only addition to the list of MUs, and Apep is the only one no longer there, so it seems more likely that Wadjet is a change of Apep, not a totally new unit.

You sure Wadjet had wings? That's the first time I've seen her depicted with wings... maybe it's some combination of Wadjet and Nekhbet (which, being a vulture, explains the wings)?
