take out the assyrians and make it all babylonian... take out:going into captivity,siegeworks,razor, davids harp, lampstand...
After you take out the assyrian stuff and put in all babylonian.. put in head of gold. you will get a MUCH bigger bonus than having 2 brigades. switch out some green enhancements for better ones. example: two bears for davids sling or eleazers sword.

I run  (and ran before the new set came out) a babylonian-prophets deck and it worked out pretty well. but you definitely need to cut down to be able to compete with the faster decks. hur+gifts is good, but either 56 or 100 cards are really the best card count in a deck like this.

Hope this helps :)
