Lamb Dominant

Psa 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

Heal a hero in play, draw two cards and you may play the next enhancement.

No Dominants.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

you'll have to help me out; what do you mean? Do you understand the mechanic or do you mean in the context of why are people designing cards that let you play the next enhancement? Being able to play the next enhancement is big.

Sun & Shield

Green/Red Enhancement
Territory Class

Psa 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

While holder has a red and green brigade hero in play, holder may draw 4 cards instead of 3 during draw phase.

Just wanted to put a reason to see red played again, yet not make the card usless by only allowing it to be used by red.

The idea is, throughout scripture, prophets have helped instruct warriors before and in battle.

May not be that good of an Idea though.
And the Lord will descend with a SHOUT, with the VOICE of the Archangel, and the TRUMPET of God.

i'm surprised to see anyone excited about a new dominant. seriously, its the last thing type 1 needs. the new ones are great (in that they can act defensively [grapes] and hurt speed [mayhem]), but the game doesn't need more dominants for a little while. y'all have heard the threads about NJ rite?

The two people I saw showing excitement were being sarcastic.

Seriously though how about this
Sun and Shield
Red TC enhancement

You red hero may play the first enhancement or make the battle by the numbers for the next X battles (Where X is the number of prophets in play (minimum of one))

That wording is really awkward. How about:

Sun and Shield
0/0 Red TC GE

You can just say "when blocked" instead of "when an Evil Character blocks," and you can just say "Enhancement" rather than "Good Enhancement."

I like it, but give it some numbers.

One more minor gripe, say "except this one" so it can be used in battle (and by Musicians), and it's one of my favorite NCI's in a while.

Cleaned up the wording a bit, and musicains can't use it

Healing stops a hero from getting discarded, Christian Martyr discards a hero. Ergo Healing cancels Christian martyr
and TY

O_o; must it be killed 4 times?

Captures would end it right there. Also assuming you have 4 prophets out, this card, the 3 card banding chain thats 8 cards.

Red needs a good shot in the arm, and I'd like to see green/red mesh well cuz atm they seriously lack it. Maybe Set X prophets aside for X turns?
