So I want to build a new offense using OT Purple Kings to represent Authority, Kingship and use Angels to represent the harvest of the earth at the end of the age. The kings represent Jesus and His Authority. Are there any good Purple/Silver combinations out there?

Cherubim + Ethiopian Treasurer + Spiritual Warfare will ignore all human ECs pre-block.
Of course, ET isn't really Royalty.

haha, thanks Red...I like it. I'll consider it since I really don't have anything yet except for concept.

I have been playing purple kings forever.
(and for credibility) I just took 2nd in T1 states and 1st in T2 using my kings.
I have found extreamly little synergy with kings and angels. I think you'll fine they would just be 2 offenses in one deck. Personally I pair them with a small bit of Prophets, but I don't know how that will effect your concept.
Ps: play with Abby... She is Amazing and underrated!

that's what I was worried to hear. Nothing even with NT angles?

The Kings don't have good FBTN so you can always make a little captin combo.
Playing unified kingdom on David makes it CBN so you can use it on him, band to everyone and their grandma and then through in a FBTN OT angle.
-
The main thing you're going to want to look at with NT angles is right angles, and to a lesser extent, acute and obtuse angles. One of my favorite NT angles combos is to use the Point A to Point B enhancement to band the Acute and Straight angles, which allows you to search your deck for a hypotenuse and play it for massive damage.
There's not much synergy between silver and purple though. I think one of the Cherubim can band to purple and there's the obvious ET combos, but for the most part, it's not worth the time in my opinion.

Although that would be fun, Unified Kingdom specifies "O.T. HUMAN heroes..."
The only good angel thing with them would be Cherubim to a decent hero like King David and using Striking Herod or Reach/battle-winner. Just as Jmbeers aforementioned, angels/kings aren't the greatest of pairs. Most things just don't go together (i.e. King Hiram can't search for Chamber, Peace Treaty can't band to an angel, etc.) I like Jmbeers idea of them with prophets, perhaps Samuel (search for/band to King Saul).
-
There's not synergy per se, but they can fill in each others' holes pretty well. Silver lacks Enhancement support, which Purple is bursting with, while Silver has the best FbtN which is absent from Purple.

+1
And that's why your best bet is to have captin be your main angel, you can also always do mikie+sword+(fill in blank here).

thanks fellas, great help here.
