2 or 3 other guys depending on your style, here's some options:

Angel at Shur - to pull out other OT guys faster
Angel at Jerusalem - more site access and inititive

Enhancements:
Striking Herod
Protection of Angels
Swift Beings
Angel's Sword
that green/silver enh that ignores humans

4-5 others depending on your style, here's some options:
Michael's Sword - NoN with Michael, negate immunity
Reuben's Torn Clothes - if you play with Jacob
Obedience of Noah - if you play with Jacob
Fire,Smoke, & Sulfur - discard

This is just a copy and paste from my casual silver deck:

Heroes - Angel of the Harvest, Paladin the Fighter, Gabriel (Warriors), Angel of Deliverance, Michael (Kings), Angel in the Path (Warriors), Angel at Jerusalem (Priests), Attending Angel (TxP), The Strong Angel (Kings), Jacob (either one), Captain of the Host (Kings)

Hero Enhancements - Michael's Sword, Flaming Sword, Spiritual Warfare, Protection of Angels (Priests), Angel's Sword, Striking Herod, Victory, Defeating the Enemy, Three Angels, Swift Beings, Seventh Trumpet, Captain's Sword, Fire-Smoke-and Sulfur

You may also want to consider: Angel of Warning TxP if using sites/fortresses, Death of the Firstborn, Angel at Shur promo (for searching for characters and initiative), Three Nails if it will not mess up your own defense (Demons are the bane of Angels), Everlasting Beings Promo or Chariot of Fire or Chamber of Angels to get your defeated angels back.

And I agree that the marketplace is the best place to purchase/trade for these cards. Hope this helps.

Angel of Warning is awesome. Every Angel deck should use Chamber of Angels and Angel of Warning can get it out of your deck. It can also get an access site if you're facing a site deck, or you can look at your opponent's hand, which always provides a strategic advantage.

Another couple of nice cards are The Second Seal and Army of the Lord. The Second Seal can potentially wipe out an entire defense, since there are a lot of large numbered Angels, and Army of the Lord is also nice to get a big band that can be FBTN (with Captain) and it can also get around TFG and HHI if used by Captain.

Here is my Silver offense, in case you're interested:

Silver Heroes: 7
   Angel at Jerusalem
   Angel of Warning
   Captain of the Host
   Gabriel
   Michael
   The Destroyer
   The Strong Angel

Silver Hero Enhancements: 6
   Angel's Sword
   Army of the Lord
   Fire, Smoke, and Sulfur
   Protection of Angels
   Striking Herod
   The Second Seal

(Demons are the bane of Angels)

Not my demons, Silver is the bane of my demons.

I use Michael, Captain of the Host, Strong Angel, Gabriel, The Destroyer (he is a must to get past the 2Khorses CBN characters behind a protect fortress) Angel of the Harvest, Paladin the Fighter, Angel in the Path and Silver Surfer...I mean Angel at Jerusalem.

For enhancements anything that can get rid of an evil character in battle (Striking Herod) or band in more angels (Army of the Lord) is good, and Protection of Angels is awesome and Gathering of Angels rarely hurts.

Support it with a couple of Access sites, Chamber of Angels and the TexP angels that I don't have yet and its fairly good. (at least in theory)

Wait...Angel in the Path gets NoN with Angel's Sword?

Professoralstad · « **Reply #11 on:** February 24, 2010, 11:38:33 AM »

Yes. Angel's Sword belonged to the Angel in the Path, and they both have Angel in the title, so it is a valid NoN combination.

However, Angel's Sword is typically much better used on Michael (or Eli).

Huh, I never really thought about this. I mean, Angels aren't very good at dealing with demons, but I suppose the reverse is just as true. Maybe I'm not so reluctant to build an angel deck now...

Actually they ARE great vs angels, the cards (POTA, POTyrus) etc aren't used cuz all people do for angels for the most part is splash. I ran an angel deck vs a grey orange angel defense without using 3 nails and won by a hair (they had the pit so 3 nails was a moot point) Off hand.... can burning censor kill the pit?

stefferweffer · « **Reply #14 on:** February 24, 2010, 01:59:35 PM »

Yes, and this is what I meant, in case I wasn't clear. I think that, pound for pound, demons can hurt/mess up angels more than angels can frustrate demons.

Here's what i do. I do half of my offence silver other half human, your choice but i would pick either teal PURPLE BLUE or green. The angels that i use in my deck are Gabriel(warrriors), Captain of the host(warriors), Angel at Shurr(promo) and the last one i would pick either of these, angel of warning txp, angel in the path, angel with a secret name, angel at jerusalem, and last but not least MIKE FROM THE WARRIORS which i have but wilol never trade! For enh here are some battle winning ones, fire smoke and sulfure, striking herod, the secound seal, the seventh trumpet, and victory( note always have victory in your deck no matter what!).Also in ur deck make shure u have at least one negate and discard enh for offence and defence. one that i would choose for silver would be the flaming sword. its ok to have a discard evil character in opponets territory( but i dont use those types really) i would choose the third seal. And if u have any room left in ur deck put in wickedness removed its great! ive been playing redemption for 3 years and angels have never lead me astray always use them. my the force be with u.
