Red Site

Protect lost souls in this site from rescue except by a lone hero or a dominant.

I Samuel 17:6  "For forty days the Philistine came forward every morning and evening and took his stand."

(Alternative abilities I considered -  1. If this site is occupied prevent banding abilities on opponent's heroes - This seemed too powerful though., 2. Lost souls in this site can only be rescued by Warrior-class heroes - This also seemed too powerful.)

I changed it.

I only specified "unbanded" because there was some confusion up here about access.  Say it's a green site, and the battle is won by a banded green, white and gold hero.  Someone might say that its still a "lone" hero rescuing the lost soul, because the other two do not have access anyway.

Same thing with Claudia banded to Simeon to rescue the Female Only.  It's only being rescued by a "lone" hero because only 1 hero has access (or so goes the argument).  I get what you're saying, and agree with it.  We all just need to understand the term "lone" to mean "unbanded" rather than "the only hero with access to the lost soul".  Thanks for the help.

I love it, but I'd still make it Red. While Shepherd David was the one who took victory here, it was a battlefield and he was the champion of the Hebrew military.

Irony of an anti banding site being red? Which I love.
