Looking for a Patriarch deck idea

I am looking to make a patriarch type deck...of course, using the COW versions, but themed around the patriarchs...not sure what defense would go with them, nor where to begin aside from a few of the Good Characters.

Abraham (CoW)
Isaac (CoW)
Jacob (CoW)
Melchizedek (CoW)
Sarah (CoW)
Rachel (FooF)
Joseph (FooF)
Abram's Army
Angel at Shur
The Angel of the Winds

Faith of Isaac
Abraham's Servant to Ur
Faith of Abraham
Faith of Sarah
Faith of Jacob
Forgiveness of Joseph
Reuben's Torn Clothes
Obedience of Noah

There's an idea for the offense...not sure if there's really a specific defense that goes better than others.

Yes this is a good template for me. Thanks!  Are the faith Cow cards that good as stand alone GEs, without a lot of extra outside cards?

If you add the Cloud of Witnesses Fortress then they become even stronger as you never have to worry about running out of offense.

In my experience, CoW is usually a suboptimal play because good offenses have enough power to win without dedicating a slot to a recursion gimmick.

Justin's Template is solid but I'm cutting the Angels for Simeon and Eve. IMHO.

Question, how could I incorporate a reserve into the offense or defense in a deck like this, without using just the orange brigade...?

Open lackey, go to deck builder, sort by "special ability contains" and put "reserve" in the search field. Read the list of cards and see if any of them fit in the deck. Other than that there are three cards (Covenant with Prayer, The Deceiver, and the "Gain" Lost Soul) that can be thrown into basically any deck, although I would highly advise against using the "Gain" soul unless you have a very specific reason for putting it in the deck.

I keep forgetting about the Lackey search, thx!  I did and I actually have several options for several different color brigades.  It allows for atleast a few Reserve options if I need it. :)
