Currently we have duplicate deck building rules in the 10th Anniversary Rule Book (starting on page 56) and an update to those rules on the Priests Insert.Quote from: Priests InsertDuplicate Rues for Deck Building1) Character cards with the same title and the same art are considered duplicates for deck building. Therefore, Jeremiah (white) and Jeremiah (teal) are duplicate characters and only one is allowed in a T1 deck of 50-99 cards.2) Character cards with the same title and same brigade are considered duplicate characters unless they are generic characters and have different art. Therefore, Michael (Warriors), Michael (Kings) and Michael (Angel Wars) are considered the same hero and only one is allowed in a Type 1 deck of 50-99 cards. However, Sadducees (G deck) and Sadducees (Apostles, 3 variants) all have different art and are generic characters, so one of each is allowed in a T1 deck of 50-99 cards.Based on this I believe it's legal to have both Gibeonite Trickery (Pa - brown) and Gibeonite Trickery (Ra2 - black) in the same deck. Since they are enhancements, not characters, the "same name and same art" rule doesn't apply. I don't think there's anything broken about leaving it this way. Thoughts?

The duplicate deck building rules already cover what is considered a duplicate for enhancements. From the questions I'm seeing (I'm looking at you Hobbit) you haven't looked at the rules.

Defining Duplicate Cards:•Same Title + Same Art = Same Card.Cards with the same title and same art are considered duplicates. For example, Saph (black brigade) and Saph (gray brigade) are duplicates. Since they have special abilities, you are allowed only 1 Saph in a deck of fewer than 100 cards.•Same Title + Same Brigade = Same Card (except generic characters with different art).Cards with the same title and same brigade are considered duplicates. For example, John (purple brigade, deck J) and John (purple brigade, deck H), and John (purple brigade, promo) are duplicates. Since they have special abilities, you are allowed only 1 John in a deck of fewer than 100 cards. The only exception to this rule is generic characters with different art. For example, you can have 4 different versions of Sadducees in your deck, since they are generic characters with different art.•Different Art + Different Brigade = Different Card.Cards that have the same title are not considered duplicates for deck building if their art and brigade are different. For example, you can have one Peter (purple brigade) and one Peter (red brigade) in your deck. However, since Peter is a unique character, you can only have one in play at a time.
