I need help with a defense for this deck. I am thinking Egyptians. I will also accept ideas for the offense, but i don't want to change it too much.

I am looking at the offense and personally I think any Gen deck in type 2 better utilize Infinite Kidron.  All you need is Kidron Valley 2x 2x Teal Priests and 2x Kerith Ravine. If you don't like Infinite Kidron throw some tassels in and then deck 4x Abes Kid. Put some Golgothas in and you have got yourself some nice evil enhancement recursion.

Offensively then you would only need to take out abes servant 2 and numerous as the stars 2. Otherwise looks good, I would max out JbP and RtC if I were you. You can take out Eve and Angel at Shur to do so.

Egyptians are probably your best bet here just make sure you use plenty of the speed cards, lies, wonders forgottens, and failed objectives.

I would pair the offence with Assyrian Seige Army to counter key cards that would hurt your offense like Darius Decree, Nazereth, and Golgotha. Add Golgotha with Abes Kid and DoU.
This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

To expound on the Guardian's answer--

Note: If a card fits into two categories below, the most restrictive (higher up) category applies:

1 Per Deck: Dominants, and any card with more than 2 brigades.
2 per Deck: Cards with exactly 2 brigades (including cards with 1 good brigade and 1 evil brigade)
3 per Deck: Artifacts, Fortresses, Curses, Covenants
4 per Deck: Characters and Enhancements; Sites and Lost Souls without special abilities.
1 per 50 cards in Deck: Sites and Lost Souls with Special abilities (Maximum of 4)
Press 1 for more options.
