Title: Cornelius the Centurion
Post by: Deck Metrics on May 02, 2011, 12:25:43 PM
Acts 10:1-2

There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

7/6 Red Warrior Class Hero

When Cornelious enters battle, all players draw a card.  May band to a Centurion.

Like it, more red centurions  :)
 :2cents: Though in order to stay with the theme, he needs access and should, like, negate warrior class special abilities on ECs. :2cents:

Honestly I don't like him... Ive seen better Cornelius Ideas... I would make him have an ability that has Peter involved or something like that.

IMO for being one of the first recorded Gentile Christians Cornelius should be awesome.

Well, honestly, I just want to new more Centurions.
But I do agree that he should be awesome.

How about

"Negate all special abilities on sites and human evil characters. If Peter is in play Hero ignores all pharisees and saduccees"

I really like that... At first I looked at it and thought it was just ok because of Golgatha. I wasn't thinking about the part that Negates sites.

I still think he should have "access to all sites" like the other centurions.

I would rather not have Cornelius be such a carbon copy of the other centurions. I kind of like Hobbit's version though. How about:

SA: "If Peter is in play, Hero ignores all pharisees and saduccees. If a centurion is in battle, you may play an enhancement."
Identifier: All centurions may band to Cornelius when they enter battle.

If it focuses on Peter, he needs a remake.

By that logic we can say D&A focuses on Job the old one isn't good enough. JK  ;)

I don't think Peter needs a remake...yet. Just cause disciples are too strong as it is lets wait a couple sets till disciples are weak to worry about an awesome Petey.  :)

If Peter gets a remake, we really don't want to make Centurions too strong. Red/Purple is already brutal. Andrew for MVP.

Yeah I guess I agree that they don't need any more disciples for the next forever or so  :)

When Peter gets a remake he is going to have to be unbelievably awesome seeing as he spent the second most time with Jesus after John.

And we know how awesome John is.... ::)

He was in a starter deck, and I think he needs to be reprinted anyways.

John is awesome.

Which one do you mean?
(depending on your deck strategy, the promo could be better than the starter)
Title: Re: Cornelius the Centurion
Post by: TheHobbit13 on May 03, 2011, 09:10:11 PM
 Mostly the starter because it is better with the DI theme.
Title: Re: Cornelius the Centurion
Post by: Aelec Enitnel on May 03, 2011, 09:22:09 PM
My current deck utilizes the Promo.
(I kinda like it 'cuz it was my dad's Idea that Rob made into a promo card)

John (starter) is actually really good. He can take down Pharisees pretty easily, and stand alones are laughed at.
