Interesting idea. The SA is a little to wordy. If it was printed it would probably be something like:
SA: Take a weapon from an syrian to hand. May band any number of leapers into battle.

I like the idea, though I don't know if they're useful outside of the specific Syrian deck. I almost want to see them take an evil enhancement or an evil weapon, just so that it's useful for things other than Gold Shield.

Yes but the 4 Leprous Men in 2Kings snuck into the Syrian camp, that’s what I was going off of. Plus I have been thoroughly slaughtered by a all Syrian deck so I had a bit of an ax to grind there. Not to mention that I felt that it would make these guys too powerful, to band any lepers into battle and steal any weapon... yeah I felt that just taking one from a Syrian would be more accurate and not make them over-powerful.
