1   Angel with the Secret Name (RoA)
1   Captain of the Host (Wa)
1   Joshua, Son of Nun
1   Gideon's 300
1   Gideon (CoW)
1   Caleb (FooF)
1   Men of Judah
1   Army of Simeonites
1   The Angel Under the Oak

1   Balance
1   Samson's Strength (J)
1   Counsel of Abigail (RoA)
1   The Battle is the Lord's
1   Live Coal (FooF)
1   Holy Ground
1   Battle Cry
1   A Soldier's Prayer
1      Roman Spear

1   Coliseum

Main rescue with this deck is AWSN to Joshua holding roman spear (for the first strike) to Caleb to Men of Judah to Army of Simeonites. You also have coliseum up so they can't play scattered or anything. you then have this massive CBN (except for caleb, he's the weak point) band that has first strike and you cant play CBN things against it. all you need is a bunch of negates, which i have plenty. And samson's strength is CBN with AWSN! Although, I'm sure sisera would love this  ;D

Other rescues include Joshua captain because duh, AWSN/Auto to gideon and gideon's 300 and throw down balance.

Weak points: caleb. you take him out or negate him and the massive banding chain is gone. you still have the two armies by themselves, but they aren't cbn any more. and joshua captain is good, but that's too meta. ;) anyways, tell me what you think!

Ehud, Asahel and Israelite Archer feel like they should be in this deck.

Sword of the Spirit (CoW) would be an awesome weapon to include.

I'm not sure Roman Spear is necessary--who needs First Strike when your numbers are massive?

I think I would swap Live Coal for a different negate since only Captain can use it.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?

First Strike also only applies to the character holding Roman Spear, so it's use is limited with such a large band.

Battle cry seems to have limited use for you. You aren't running Ahimelek so it isn't a battle winner. It works to band in cap but that's about it. Gideon's 300 also takes heros out of your territory to band to. Foreign sword is another negate you could add. Ishmaiah the Gibeonite would be awesome with that. Centurion's Proclamation isn't a negate but potentially is a interrupt battle winner and isn't negated by coliseum.  Faith of Gideon isn't a negate but it's a solid battle winner for Gideon which he can search for. Just some other ideas for ya.
