Don't know if this belongs here, but it's the closest category I could find...

I've been teaching my daughter (10) to play Redemption. I started her with the H deck, since it had all the white women heroes. We played twice (once face up, once with her older brother helping), and I unfortunately won both games 5-4. (She never drew her SoG.)

So I decided to soup up her deck. I added 6 cards:

New Jerusalem
The Garden Tomb
Mary the mother of James
Salome
Huge Egyptian
Egyptian Spear

Results: With her other brother helping her, and me drawing four LSs on the first two turns, she clocked me 5-1. She rescued two LSs with the TGT effect against my lone EC (although Red Dragon had already had one successful block). I stalled Huge Egyptian/Egyptian Spear by rescuing with Miriam, but I only managed the one rescue. She won with SoG/NJ at the end. She had a lot of fun, got to see some powerful cards, and is more interested in playing now.

So I have to find a way to buff the G deck, but not too much. I'm thinking Judges Seat...

cough, I'll take TGT thanks....

Also, I would add ANB to the G deck.

Covenat with moses , unknown nation

these 2 cards will force 1 more deffensive dominant and stops and offensive one

not sure if this is to big of a boost both if played right that should give you another block and rescue .

other cards that could boost
provisions
hopper if you have the cards to put in both decks should balance out ls, this just helps with a "fair" draw of ls
