This is pretty cool.  About the only brigade that has 2 curses which almost any deck could benefit from having both active at the same time is crimson (Captured Ark & Go Into Captivity).  Of course specific decks would also benefit (ie. Unknown Nation & Given over to Egypt in Egyptian decks).

My main problem is that the limitation still wouldn't stop you from still having 2 different brigade curses in play.  You could have one in the fortress and another on your regular art pile.  There are already starting to be a LOT of defensive arts in play these days with Magic Charms on a magician, one in a temple, one on the art pile, and occasionally another one in a fortress (ie. UW on HPP).

Of course maybe this would get more people to actually put Split Altar in their decks.  Nah, probably not

I would love to see something like "May hold any number of curses of a brigade which has at least two characters in your territory."

But this is good, too...I guess.

Self says no.

If you want to use Self as one of the two characters of the brigade you are using, go right ahead. Personally, I would rather use another character that actually goes with my theme.

Self in KotW + Standalone EC of each brigade in your territory = all curses can be held in that fortress at the same time

So you're saying it was a total waste of time to put the word "a" in that ability?
