I Got a REG Change!

It's my first one, so I am proud  ;D

here it is:

Benjamin
Type: Hero Char. • Brigade: Blue • Ability: 1 / 1 • Class: None • Special Ability: If all of your human Heroes in play are Genesis Heroes, Genesis Enhancements cannot be negated. Otherwise, discard Benjamin after battle. • Identifiers: OT Male Human, Patriarch, son of Jacob • Verse: Genesis 49:27 • Availability: Faith of Fathers (Set 4)


This came up in an online game.  I have a RTS version of a genesis deck and a real version exactly alike and I have played that even if I have a copy of Captain down to band to Jacob, Benjamin still gets CBN status on his genesis Enhancements, but the RTS verson doesn't have the word "human" on the card.  when the Question came up, I didnt have access to my cards so I just went to the online REG and lo and behold, it did not have the word "Human" either.  so according to the REG, Benji lost his CBN status as soon as Captain landed in my territory.

I checked it after the game and realized that I was right and the REG was wrong and notified Mike of the need for the update this past weekend at the PA states.


While I am kind of excited that I finally was able to make a fix to the REG, I dont want anyone to interpret this as me taking pleasure in finding fault in another, instead I want to highlight how tough Mike's job is and how great a job he does at it.  For those of you who do not use it, The REG, especially the online REG is an INVALUABLE Redemption resource and Mike Berkenpas does a FANTASTIC job keeping it updated.  Just trying to keep all the different abilities straight makes my head spin but Mike does a wonderful job keeping it updated.

Props to you Mr. Berkenpas!


Now I need to set my sights on getting an Errata ascribed to me!

That's odd.  In RTS, my Benjamin says "human Heroes".  It also looks like it's been fixed in the online REG already, but I don't see any of the other corrections that we've been waiting for.  Are you sure you didn't get Zebulun and Benjamin confused?  They have similar wording about requiring a Genesis Hero except Zeb doesn't limit it to humans.

I dunno, maybe.  If that is the case then I am back to being a lowly redemption Peon.


I was kinda hoping for the promotion though.


I talked to Mike about the need to change benjamin so if he hasn't changed any of the other fixes then, I was probably wrong and he hasn't gotten to it yet.  But thinking that I was right and it was Benjamin, I Thought he had already fixed it.  AS I look on the RTS, It seems that I was wrong and I was probably playing Zebulun but thinking of Benjamin.

oh well.  I fail.  thats about par for the course. ;)

Nah, it still contains a well deserved praise to Mike, so I will live with my shame so that others may be praised.

(snickering) I am making fixes now and finally saw the comment. I am grateful for the compliment. Thanks!

BTW, sometimes there are bugs in the new card releases. When minor changes are made just prior to cards going to press, I miss the minor changes and they end up in the REG. It is usually the case that the new cards are a rush to get in prior to nationals. In this case, it appears I got it right. That happens sometimes too ;)
