== Strategy ==
The Sphinx has some of the least restrictive placement requirements of any improvement - any passable land tile is fair game, except for Snow and Snow Hills in Gathering Storm. The Egyptians should build them on tiles that cannot support other improvements, or adjacent to wonders for some extra . Thanks to their Appeal bonus, well-placed Sphinxes can create good spots for Seaside Resorts and National Parks, or increase the yields of those that are already there.
Under the Gathering Storm ruleset, the Sphinx's Appeal bonus increases from +1 to +2. This is equivalent to the bonuses from any natural wonder other than Uluru or the Eiffel Tower, a Modern Era wonder, and it can be built almost anywhere in your empire! Appeal bonuses stack, so a tile adjacent to two Sphinxes will receive +4 Appeal, and Appeal tends to be underrated by players because it can't be seen on the map without its special lens. Therefore, the best pantheon for Egypt under this ruleset is Earth Goddess, since the Sphinx makes it easier than ever to get Breathtaking tiles everywhere. Earth Goddess will generate a huge amount of early on as well as into the mid- and late game, helping you with any victory type you choose.
