Cactus Game Design Message Boards

I'm back with card ideas!  The original hasn't been posted on since I haven't had a lot of time to be on here with a baby and two jobs and all.  I'll start posting my ideas here and have you all critique them before I send them to Daniel to design. HOpe you all like them!  some of them I have done before but would like to see the new design on them.  Have fun!

I would prefer if Eden was silver, since humans are not allowed in. The ability seems more like a TC than a site, I would change it

Title: Deborah
Type: Hero
Brigade: Gold/Green
Numbers: 4/4
Identifier: Judge, Prophetess
SA: Search deck for Barak. If opponent has a O.T. Male Evil Character in play, topdeck a O.T. discard enhancement. Cannot be Negated if a Canaanite is in play.
Verse: "But because of the course you are taking, the honor will not be yours, for the Lord will deliver Sisera into the hands of a woman.” So Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh.  Judges 4:9
Image: http://www.christcenteredmall.com/profiles/deborah.jpg
Backround: Purple

Deborah should not discard a Canaanite, due to her singing during the fight. Jael was the one to kill the Canaanite. In my opinion she would be better off as a Gold/White Hero with a different ability. We already have a judge that can use any good Judges enhancement and he's not that great.

Post modified.

A little better, but now a waste without Jael. Here is what I think she should be:
Gold/White or Gold/Green (Not all three though)
Search deck for Barak. If opponent has a O.T. Male Evil Character in play, topdeck a O.T. discard enhancement. Cannot be Negated if a Canaanite is in play.

This keeps with the story in way and makes her ability more useful.

I like it!  Thanks!  I'll give you credit for the ability when Lambo and Daniel create it....

****I apologize that I couldn't find the original art for these souls.*****

Every turn, I can convert an EC? Mark, at the very, very least, needs a may, and possibly a per-game limit on the convert.
