Title: Previous (before reprint) phase 1 early church cards
Post by: redemption collector 777 on September 12, 2014, 01:07:43 AM

Just wondering I have bought several booster packs of the early church slightly after nationals and just have a few thoughts or questions to post about them.

They are:

Seek and destroy (brown and black brigades)

The false prophet (brown border card with no magician identifier and says "negate good convert" with no word "abilities" in it )

All of my early church cards have no numbers on the bottom side of them.



1. Does the Seek and destroy only supposed to be black brigade enhancement?

2. With this brown border on the False prophet card I have , does anyone think it could be worth more than the regular gold version?? (even by a little bit more value)

3. and how about the the other ones?  Like CBI Evil strength , generic angel of deliverance identifier , emperor , holy spirit corrections etc???

The first version of Seek and Destroy is Brown/Black. The new version is Black only. They are played as printed.

You have the first version of The False Prophet. It is very much rarer than the new version will be. Would you be interested in trading it by chance?

The other cards all received changes and both versions will play as the second one is printed except for Coming of the Spirit--the original version will play as written.

If you are curious about any Early Church print 1 cards, check the wiki. I added tabs for print 1 and print 2. If a Print 1 card received an errata, you will see a little flag above the card name. Otherwise they play as printed.

See Nicanor (http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/Nicanor_(TEC)) for an example of this.

So for clarification,  are Seek & Destroy & Coming of the Spirit the only cards that play as is for the 2 printings?  That would be good to know as a tournament host!

The Holy Spirit changed without being errata'd as well

Just to clarify Justin's statement here, it has been determined that only a handful of these cards exist. That would give them exceptional value to collectors. I would not trade this card lightly, but by all means get what you need.  ;D
