Title: Receiving Judgement
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on January 01, 2010, 03:50:42 PM: Gray -/- Territory EE.
"Capture one of your heroes and place in your LOB. If you do place this card in your territory. Warrior class characters cannot enter battle. Discard this card after three turns."

2nd Chron. 16:10. Asa was angry with the seer because of this; he was so enraged that he put him in prison. At the same time Asa brutally oppressed some of the people.

1. Capture
2. WC Characters cannot enter battle for 3 turns

After the 3 turns, WC characters can enter battle. The capture ability is totally separate. Also, it isn't CBN so they can negate it.

I like the card, it is definitely balanced and not OP'D, but still useful.

I've been shooting for cards like that, then you can find new ways to use the penalties to your advantage, a whole lvl of fun!

Yes you could, which is why it makes me nervous as a TC enhancement. Make it just a regular placed enhancement, and it still works in a pinch with High Places, but is less likely to be abused.
