Ok. So I always planned on using Naharai but I wasn't too sure of who else to use. Eventually I came up with this conglomerate of Heroes:

Adino
Gad
Heldai
Naharai
Seeker of the Lost
Isrealite Archer
Helez

I really want to keep Naharai and Gad because I plan to have The Sabbath and Rams Horn for Naharai, and Passover Prep for Gad.

You guys think this is good or what would you change, while keeping in Gad and Naharai?

TimMierz · « **Reply #26 on:** August 05, 2008, 06:33:08 PM »

I would think Abishai would be a stronger choice than Helez.

Alex-CB · « **Reply #27 on:** August 05, 2008, 06:47:18 PM »

Soo,

Adino
Abishai
Gad
Heldai
Naharai
Seeker of the Lost
Isrealite Archer

And I just came up with another idea:

Mephibosheth
King Hiram
Kings Daughter or Esther
Naharai
Heldai
Abishai
Naharai

I'm kind of leaning towards the Red/Purple but what do you guys think?

Captain of the Host + Gathering of Angels

Caleb (10/7) , Men of Judah (12/12) , Army of Simeonites (11/11), Captain of the Host (10/10)
43/40=WIN

If opponent stops Captain, play Red's battlewinners and "If used by Warrior Class" cards.
I love my red/gray deck.

Alhough...

Your attack: 43/40 with Captain negating + Opponent's The Trap of the Devil= DOAH!

Don't forget Caleb's sword or any other of wepon class enchantment.

I meant to put don't forget Caleb's sword and any other kind of weapon class enchantment on the outside of that quote.

If you want to use red, you could go one of the following ways.

1. You can make mass banding combos
2. You can use passover prep. and battle winners
3. You can use initiative warrior class heroes, ram's horns and battle winners
4. You can combine two or more of the above.

Red isn't new and flashy, but it has classics that are still awesome today!

Freedom Fighter · « **Reply #32 on:** August 25, 2008, 05:33:04 PM »

For OT char. you should use either mass bands or initiative warrior class heroes.

Although you shouldn't forget Jephthah because he's a red staple.

For NT char. you should use Chloe because she's also female and can draw a card.

If you want a different way to go, you can use Christian Soldier, Gad, Hushai and Asahel with passover prep.

Make sure if you use red, to stock up on battle winners.

Freedom (x5)
Jail's Nail (x5)
Baggage (?#)
Power of the Cross (?#)
David's Mighty Men (?#)

I also believe red is better than most people think.

It doesn't have new cheap strategies, but it has a lot of battle winners and should be respected for that.

Red is a color that is extremely good yet not cheap.

Some other colors rely on new cheap strategies but red mostly uses the same things since the 3rd edition.

Red is my favorite brigade, and in my opinion the best!

capturing Cannnan is a must

Define cheap? Like aocp abuse?

Freedom Fighter · « **Reply #36 on:** August 26, 2008, 07:02:34 PM »

AOCP abuse is one of the things I meant,
as well as the Teal brigade and Plague of frogs (the green enhancement)
Hidden Treasures is also cheap and should have a use limit on it.

TheKarazyvicePresidentRR · « **Reply #37 on:** August 26, 2008, 08:19:28 PM »

How is it cheap? Green has ONE card that kills in territory.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #38 on:** August 26, 2008, 10:40:16 PM »

He said HT, not HT with pure Green.

TheKarazyvicePresidentRR · « **Reply #39 on:** August 27, 2008, 04:00:45 PM »

That is true, with training In r+a green person it could be nasty.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #40 on:** August 27, 2008, 05:23:57 PM »

Who needs training in righteousness? Zechariah with Table of Showbread ftw.

TheKarazyvicePresidentRR · « **Reply #41 on:** August 27, 2008, 05:25:27 PM »

That too, but TIR=you can play NT enh too and it only takes up one slot.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #42 on:** August 27, 2008, 07:37:06 PM »

Well you could use any Evil High Priest, but Zechariah is also a Z-temple Priest.

TimMierz · « **Reply #43 on:** August 28, 2008, 09:56:53 AM »

I guess I'm lost, but besides being able to use Scapegoat, what benefits are you deriving from Caiaphas being high?

TimMierz · « **Reply #44 on:** August 28, 2008, 01:04:48 PM »

I think I'd value Zerubbabel's Temple's protection (and banding with Haggai and such) over the one or two cards you might use with Caiaphas, besides having to convert him.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #45 on:** August 28, 2008, 01:40:38 PM »

You can use U&T without converting him and I don't really fear Ignore. You can Ignore me all you want, but if you can't get into my Sites it doesn't matter.

Freedom Fighter · « **Reply #46 on:** December 20, 2008, 02:53:51 PM »

I like letting Naharai die before he gets too much experience,
so his ability comes in handy with 5 in my deck.

Freedom Fighter · « **Reply #47 on:** December 20, 2008, 03:02:02 PM »

I use mostly low numbered warrior class heroes like Naharai and Spy in combination with Ram's horn.
It's nice when I have initiative and my enhancements can't be interupted.
Also, Ram's horn helps with my little site access.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #48 on:** December 20, 2008, 03:07:43 PM »

Yeah, that can be nice sometimes, but I think the best strategy with red is giant banding chains with lots of negates. (You can throw in Spy and Naharai, too.)

The Spy · « **Reply #49 on:** December 20, 2008, 04:43:06 PM »

Spy is a great addition.

Alex CB, I have found that Red brigade, when turned into a "Mill" offense can work wonders. For example, I have found a lot of power can come from Jahaziel son of Zechariah+Kerith Ravine.
