Jonah Cards

Hey guys, for a while I have had an idea for a dual alignment Jonah and, well, I ended up making 4 other cards along the way tonight, so here they are! Please tell me what you think, and which one(s) is/are your favourite! Mine is probably Nineveh.

Jonah

Nineveh

Thrown Overboard!

King of Nineveh

Chastisement of the Lord

King of Nineveh needs a lot more work than the others I think, and if I knew his actual name, I would call him by that name and have the Assyrian King identifier. I would love to hear your guys' thoughts. Thanks!

The "when in battle" part of Jonah is a little confusing to me. Maybe change to "When Jonah attacks". But I think that might be too strong as worded. This is what I would do:
Spoiler (hover to show)

I don't think Nineveh's identifiers work as written. Maybe just holds up to 3 LS (one for each of its brigades?)? The ability would have to read "up to 6" instead of X. Instead of "during your upkeep" I'd make it "when you're attacked". Otherwise, it will not protect Souls when it matters (during your opponent's turn). It's also a really long ability.

I really like Thrown Overboard!.

Personally, I think King of Nineveh should just be evil, but have an ability that's better if converted. I'll leave that up to you. ;)

Chastisement seems fine, but I would word it like this to make it a bit more useful: "Set aside one of your green prophets for 3 turns: While set aside, each upkeep, shuffle a green Enhancement from discard pile into deck. Protect this prophet from harm while set aside."

I like the idea of having a Jonah mini-theme. Even if it's only like 10 cards for a tin, I think it could be fun. I would like to see more to fill out a tin.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback. I really like Thrown Overboard! too, I was kinda tossing up between that and Nineveh as my favourite. I think a Jonah tin would be awesome too, I suppose when I get some free time I'll make some more to fill out a tin, and edit the cards I've already made and post them all in one thread!

I think all your feedback is a step in the right direction! Seeing as I've started a Jonah conversion mechanic, King of Nineveh as a pure EC that works better when converted would be a great idea! Do you think his ability is heading in the right direction?

Also, I forgot to say that I like your Jonah a lot better!

Do you think that Thrown Overboard! should be territory class? I do!

I decided to keep the duality of King of Nineveh and this is the route I took:

King of Nineveh v2

What do you guys think?

Woah. He's crazy powerful, but not too powerful I think. I do really like the purple green typing, and the picture looks great! Nice job!
