****ATTENTION CARD DESIGNERS AND RECENT NATS WINNERS WHO CAN MAKE A CARD****

Lets take a brief stroll of history from the Bible….The Pharaoh of the famous Exodus narrative.…One of the most compelling stories in the Old Testament. One of the nastiest villains in history….Yet here he is in Redemption…….
Pharaoh 6/6 (Limited)
Pharaoh 6/6 (Unlimited)
Pharaoh 6/7 (D deck)
Pharaoh 9/10 (H deck)
This is an attempt to fix one of the longest lasting overlooked cards in Redemption history!!! Yes from the very beginning of Redemption the great and mighty Pharaoh (6/6) was a miniature figure amongst giants (the 10/10 dudes). His upgrade to unlimited was no change. But many cards were unchanged in unlimited so we can overlook that. We cannot overlook his puny increase of 1 toughness via starter deck D (6/7). The last attempt to right this wrong was another flop (H deck) increasing his stats to 9/10. OK at least he was nearing those 10/10 giants from the limited set who looked down on him all these years. Insult to injury, he still had a 9 strength not a 10 !!! Ah, but this all pales in the greatest indignity of all….the ultimate death sentence of any Redemption card….NO SPECIAL ABILITY!!!!! The phrase sends chills down the spine. Yes, reduced to ….Booster and sealed??? Well….even sealed will not see this infamous Plague ridden monarch….for his starter decks are no longer even used. So he plays once in a blue moon from a booster deck. Probably passed again and again until someone finally takes him….at least he’s better than a lost soul!?!?!?!?! Completely obsolete. What madness!!!!
I beg you, fellow Redemptionites….let us right this wrong and set the record straight….
PHARAOH CRAVES…… NAY, HE BEGS FOR A SPECIAL ABILITY!!!!!!!!!!!
MAKE PHARAOH THE BAD MAN THAT HE REALLY WAS!!!!
Thank you for your support.

Someone should try to sell their ability to design a card on eBay like I did my trophy years ago. It might actually sell this time.

I would probably buy it even though I am a play tester.

I had a deal worked out with Westy to purchase rights off him if he had won.

daniel might be willing to sell his but he will probably make a card lol

how about territory class: during your upkeep phase reveal the top card of opponents deck, if it's evil they take it to hand, if it's good it is discarded, and if it's neutral it goes in to their territory. negate moses, cbp.

I doubt pharoah will see a reprint soon, but I'll throw out my idea for a pharoah reprint.
Pharoah
Gold brigade: 9/10
Territory class
Egyptians cannot be ignored. Cannot be negated. Protect Pharoah from opponents while he remains in territory.

He already does this with PTR in play. I get it that it stops SW and RTC but it isn't a stellar reprint in my opinion because this is already achieveable in the theme.

wasnt that Pharaoh Ramses II? I heard somewhere that he is the person a number of people believe to be Moses' pharaoh.

Ahmose gave the order to kill all Israelite baby boys - Exodus 1:8-10.

Pharaoh's daughter in Exodus 2:5 was Hatshepsut, daughter of Thutmose I and wife of Thutmose II.

Thutmose III was pharaoh when Moses killed the Egyptian - Exodus 2:15.

Amuntotep II was pharaoh when Moses returned to get the Israelites out of Egypt - Exodus 3:10.

(Please note: This is according to the Study Bible I use.)

It is very possible for me to be wrong. I just think that he could use a name to go with an ability. and, it might help us come up with an ability knowing the stuff he did outside the bible.

My daughter has a special ability even though it is lousy. My servants have excellent special abilities. My Baker and my cup bearer. That's right, my servants have better special abilities then the king of Egypt!!!!!!

Love, the forgotten and forsaken Pharaoh

As a matter of fact, I would like every Redemption player from now on to put me in your deck. This will be a stark reminder of my patheticness and need for a remake ASAP! There will be a moment of silence every time I am drawn so everyone can witness my blankness.

Love, 9/10 Pharaoh

how about this?

7/5, warrior class, territory class

If another Egyptian is in play, you may search deck for an Egyptian EC, discard top card of opponents deck, or capture a blue/red hero in a territory to opponents land of bondage. CBI.

7/5 is abombinable numbers on an evil character.
