A deck may contain no more than five (5) of any card.

A deck may contain up to three (3) of any Fortress, Artifact, Covenant, or Curse.

Maximum of 1 of each in a deck:

•      Multi-colored enhancements, Heroes, or Evil Char­acters

•      Dominant (lamb icon or grim reaper icon card)

Maximum of 1 of each per 50 cards in a deck:

•      Lost Soul card that has a special ability

•      Site with a special ability

Other rules:

•      The number of your good cards and the number of your evil cards MUST be equal.

•      The number of sites may not exceed the number of Lost Souls in a deck.

•      There is no maximum of cards to a deck as long as it contains the appropriate number of Lost Souls (see table). The Proverbs 22:14 ("2-line") or Proverbs 22:14 ("3-line") Lost Souls card counts as one Lost Soul for deck building purposes.

NOTE: Type 2 games are played to 7 Lost Souls and use the Rescuer’s Choice and Experience Credit optional rules as standard.

The REG seems kind of split on blocking. It says both "Blocking is the attempt to prevent a rescue" and "Placing an Evil Character into the Field of Battle constitutes blocking."

Seems like it is contradicting itself to me.
