Maybe they're putting a reprint of Fishing Boat in the deck.

With the identifier: "Cannot be discarded."

Close. It actually says "unsinkable".

I can confirm that blue will remain focused on Genesis heroes. There are no plans to introduce a NT theme for blue since there are dozens of new and reprintable Gensis heroes.

In truth Genesis would really be scrapeing the bottom of the barrel on heroes that are *Relevant* at this point after reprinting about 4-5 heroes. (This is just my opinion)

Jmbeers · « **Reply #105 on:** April 30, 2012, 04:30:19 PM »

Well at this point, thanks to Gabe we are back to looking at Grey and White which I would be extreamly happy to see in the new starter decks.

Which is why Blue will be forced to expand to different themes. It has already become the epitome of non-creative deck construction by putting that aspect on auto-pilot.

Great theme for us ol' geezers.

What about persians? Or greeks? Alot of charachter types/factions need some serious firepower that they are missing.

I could go for greeks and persians getting a boost . . . i like the persians but as a theme they are two weak to stand with out gomer, haman, haman's plot perhaps KoT amakelite slave AND so on and so on

MitchRobStew · « **Reply #109 on:** May 01, 2012, 11:12:14 PM »

So if disciple are half of one of the starters what offense do you think would be the most likely pairing? Green (with a duel colored (green/purple peter/john) with N.T. prophets, gold (Luke/John)? Would the disciples be reprinted w/ new numbers? If white were the other offense would the white portion be magicians? I'm personally questioning whether they would make 1/2 of the other starter magicians since I don't think it would be popular enough to draw in new buyers. What do you think would be a likely pairing for the white offense? What brigades do you feel the defenses will entail (outside of orange, and gray). What gray defense do you feel it will include (Pharisees, Syrians, Emperors)?

megamanlan · « **Reply #110 on:** May 01, 2012, 11:24:28 PM »

I'm pretty sure there will be no other important Green cards because of the hints that were put out. Same with Pale Green.

I doubt they would add more to Pharisees because they are already really good. It's between Romans and Syrians, also, why does everyone assume that the only Romans that are Gray will be only Emperors? I'm just throwing that out there, most other civilizations have there entire civilization in the proper color when they are reprinted.

I'm mostly expecting, White, Purple (possibly), Teal, & Gold (maybe) for Good brigades.
For Evil, I'm expecting: Gray, Orange, Black (maybe), and Brown (again possibly)

I've heard that blue is not likely to get a N.T. theme because there is so much material to still print of Genesis, and they don't want to flood the game with blue.

They just want to flood blue with Genesis, which wouldn't get old at all.

On topic, I'm hoping to see some N.T. Red/Purple (or Gold) with Syrians+Persians in one deck, Teal/Musicians with Demons+Greeks/Heretics (or Magicians) in the other. Reprints of Priestly Breastplate, Miraculous Handkerchiefs, Cross Beams o' the Cross, and Solomon's Temple would be most welcome. But that sounds really complicated for starter decks, that sounds more like the start of theme decks...

jbeers285 · « **Reply #112 on:** May 02, 2012, 01:30:52 AM »

I think Purple/Green disicple reprints and Red/Purple NT would be sweet and id love to see persians become an admirable defense

Where is all this talk of a John reprint coming from? If Disciples are, in fact, getting reprinted, it would seem much more likely for James to get a reprint than his already-top-tier brother.

As for Genesis, we still have Abraham, Isaac, Sarah, Rebecca, Noah and his kin, Enoch, quite a few of the Patriarchs, Seth, Abel, Adam, Phill Collins and Peter Gabriel before even getting into obscure things like the line of Seth and things like Abram's Army.

megamanlan · « **Reply #114 on:** May 02, 2012, 03:26:26 PM »

Because John is supposed to be Purple/Green, and there is a good chance to see him work more towards a Prophet Deck then the current one. I'm hoping for a James the Greater reprint too.

I just can't wait to see whats in there, no matter what will be in there. I just hope it will be useful.

I agree with this, but the Disciples set surprised me with a Gabriel reprint, so I don't know what to expect now.

That wouldn't be very logistical considering that they couldn't use enhancements from previous sets, so they would have to use only enhancements from their set, which would mean it wouldn't have very many cards.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #119 on:** May 03, 2012, 08:40:04 AM »

Yeah, the best type of expansion in which to add a new brigade is a booster, for its size and freedom of design.

Minion of Jesus · « **Reply #120 on:** May 04, 2012, 09:53:11 PM »

Hopefully the decks will also be released in a gift set that has a cool promo like Nicholas of Antioch or NJ...

Just an idea that this sparked: What if there were tins that came with more than just a promo? Like, packs of ten cards, of which there are 3 different types, for 30 extra cards in the set. The biggest problem I can see with this is that most people really do not want to buy multiple copies of starter decks. It could boost sales some, but maybe no more than would a single promo.

Jmbeers · « **Reply #122 on:** May 04, 2012, 11:00:21 PM »

It sounds like almost every competitive player will be buying the new set anyways for the upgraded Dom and likely David reprint.

megamanlan · « **Reply #123 on:** May 05, 2012, 12:32:01 AM »

I don't think there is going to be a David reprint. I think it would be cool if they made a tin with a Cool Promo and with more packs kinda like how Yugioh does their tins or maybe have a cooler SE Tin w/ multiple Promos (like u get one of 3 Promos per SE set)

We have been developing and playtesting the new 4th Edition Redemption Starter Decks for months. We were on schedule to have new cards at the Redemption National Tournament in Knoxville in mid August. However, new licensing agreements with Hasbro to produce Cranium and Scrabble in Bible Editions require that we delay the 4th Edition for a couple of months. The good news is that we will have more time to playtest. Thank you for your patience.
