Talk about banding chains.... and I though Panic Demons were bad

On Apocalypse, change "either player" to "any player" so that it doesn't get a bunch of technicality dodges in multi

BTW, I like the balance on Apocalypse - strong, but very easily undone.

It's Orange Brigade. How many actually use that brigade? Besides look at the Red or Black brigades when it comes to banding chains.

I do. And yes, there are big banding chains with those, but with those numbers? All of these can band to each other. Play Apocalypse, get all these out, and you can get numbers of 64/61. Now that I look at that, it's waaay OP.

There are plenty of ways to prevent the abilities. you could use Strong Angel, Shamhuth, Three Nails, Fall like Lightning, and plenty more to negate the banding or discard them. Plus Purple has plenty of ways to get rid of demons, and what is the chance someone could draw it on their first turn.

No, white has ways to get rid of demons, Purple has ways of getting rid of ECs in general

Huge evil bands are innately OP.
If heroes do giant bands all the ECs have to do is play one of the many "discard all cards in battle" enhancements.
If ECs do big bands the heroes have to either pick them off one by one, or play AOC.

To be honest, the effects don't fit their verses.
I have made these cards and set the up to work like how the verse works.

The Revealation Demons should actually do more w/ Humans. Not just themselves.
And why does Locusts from the Pit discard a Site when their verse says 'Do not harm the Land'?

That's actually the current ability.

Yea, but it does not fit the verse regardless.
I'm saying a reprint should be more accurate.

I have to agree, I hate running up against evil bands and see like absolutley no reason to run good bands

Updated all of the characters

Is Death and Hades reducing their hand to 7 or is it reducing the max in hand limit to 15?

megamanlan · « **Reply #12 on:** July 27, 2011, 03:19:04 PM »

I think it drops Max Limit too, because Tablets of the Law increases Max limit as far as I know.

It drop your max by one. So instead of having 8 you can only hold 7 without Tables.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #14 on:** July 28, 2011, 12:21:15 AM »

It is unclear whether D&H reduces the hand limit to 15, but Tables of the Law does not effect it.

megamanlan · « **Reply #15 on:** July 28, 2011, 11:28:41 AM »

The ruling in my region says that Tablets affects the max amount as well.

Well, your region is wrong in that case.
