I think this would be an interesting deck.  I've never seen Reds/Babs before.  I play Prophet/Babs.  But anyway, your Red heroes look pretty solid...If I was playing I would prolly add in Caleb since you have Army and Men for the big band.  I would probably lose Baggage since it could easily be negated and throw in Mustering for War for drawing ability. Centurion Proclamation is also a good one to think about if you have it.  If you do I would prolly replace another Red enhance with that.  I would take out Coliseum Lions (can easily be negated since it's NT) and replace it with Great Image for opponent territory destruction.  That's a must for a Bab's deck! I would also replace Imitating Evil with Nebby's Pride. If you have Headquarters at Riblah that will protect your territory Babs from discard.  You  may want to replace your first two listed Souls with two with abilities.  Maybe Shame and NT only (NT only restricts SOG from rescuing it).    Just some thoughts! Nice combo!

Yes I would most assuredly.  I used to have it in my deck but realized it can easily be negated and plus it is NT.  Nerg enhances CBN as long as you have another Bab in play.  But enhances must be OT.  Coliseum Lions is NT.  Great Image is OT (Daniel) and Nerg can use it and it CBN.  It hits your opponent's territory and kills off all their offense in play.  I use it against my playgroup and it drives them crazy.  If you happen to play against a Prophet offense with HT art they try and search for it to get rid of it.  If you get Nebuchadnezzar in time, you can search for Great Image early so your opponent can't discard it (Nebuchadnezzar searches for any crimson card and may add to hand or battle. Cannot be negated.)  I usually search for Great Image first and then Head of Gold.  I always use Nerg + Swift Horses then enhance with Head of Gold then Great Image.  Love it! Love it! Love it!  I like Prophet/Babs because there is a lot of Capture.  Hosea caps a OT male human with banding to opponent's LOB to turn a battle challenge into a rescue and then I use Nerg with Head of Gold to cap around 6 humans. So, I can take out their offense and defense in one turn and Carried into Exile caps one to two more.  Then when your opponent tries a rescue you discard Headquarters to discard all capped heroes.  It's a beautiful thing!  So Babs can be crazy powerful if you have the right cards!

Not sure bout the a pole since you are doing a ot red offence. It will hurt you cause it woks for your opponents too. Replace with iron pan instead to help your defence.

I have played a red defense with Babs before, here are my suggestions.

Take out        
Adino,                          He is not as powerful in game play as you might think, even with his spear.
Army of Simenonites,     He is strong but clogs the way for the other better cards.
Men of Judah,               same reason.
Foreign sword,              same reason as Adino.
Most of the red enhancements,  Take out the 6 worst ones in your deck for the cards below.


Put in
Uriah the Hittite,                   very useful with many different GE's.
Ishmaiah the Gibeonite,         for banding and drawing.
The centurion at Capernaum,   good if you have nothing else to attack with.
David' Triumph,                     necessary.
Centurion's proclamation,       also necessary.
David's mighty men,              you would be surprised how many times you get to use this.
The battle is the lords,          One of the best negates in the game.
Bravery of David,                  absolutely necessary!!!
Freedom!                             It is fun removing your opponent's cards with no cost.
Rams horn,                          Best with Freedom!

This will make your red deck much better.

God Bless!
