Title: Mount Ebal site
Post by: stefferweffer on January 19, 2010, 04:39:49 PM: Mount Ebal - Gold site

If occupied, your blocking evil character may reveal and immediately activate a face-down curse in your artifact pile.

Deut.27:13 - "And for the curse, these shall stand on Mount Ebal ..."

(Would be a pretty neat ability I think.)

Post by: stefferweffer on January 19, 2010, 05:02:41 PM: Agreed. "If making a ra" is better.

Post by: Ironica on January 19, 2010, 11:38:05 PM: When I read that verse a few months ago, I was thinking of making it a fortress card that would hold a curse (like Book Of The Covenant but only holding one curse instead of two).

Mt Gerizim

Multi Site

Heroes from the tribes of Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin are protected from capture abilities on evil cards when using this site for access. Return heroes to territory instead.

Deu 27:12 These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when ye are come over Jordan; Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin:

Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on January 21, 2010, 01:20:59 PM: Correct sir.
Title: Re: Mount Ebal site
Post by: BubbleBoy on January 21, 2010, 02:23:52 PM: Oh yeah, definitely awesome for priests, too.

I think this card would be a bad idea, because it would require an entirely new set of identifiers.

Actually, if you do the math. 12 tribes, 6 mentioned in the SA, 6 not mentioned in the SA.

I modified the SA to say Protect from Capture abilities. Discard will now work. I was thinking that one of the curses mentioned on Ebal was that they would be taken captive into other nations, this would be more accurate (and less op'd).
