This was a deck that I worked on shortly before TexP came out, and it's in rough shape, even for then, as I didn't have all the cards I'd have liked to work with. What are some updates I should make, both from TexP and maybe something I might have missed? My computer crashed a few months back, and I lost all of my RTS decks, so I'm more-or-less starting from scratch.

Philosophy
I would add those imo
For defense I would add leviathan because he is a beast! He is awesome 12/12 and he can't be converted either. Your enhancements look pretty good. I would also take out Promise land too. You only need Dragon raid imo because you have purple so you can get into pergamum and then use DR to go everywhere else

Unless I'm missing something, I would keep Hiram because he can go get all 3 of your fortresses!

I think you could take this down to 56 pretty easy, unless you want to keep it at 63 (which I assume it is without counting) and make the defense larger, which I might suggest for Babylonians.
If you want to keep it at 63, I would do the following:
Take Out
1 Hero
2 GE's
Guardian
Harvest Time
Put In
3 EC's
2 EE's
For 56, I would...
Take Out
1 Dominant
Wall of Protection
1 Artifact
1 Hero
2 GE's
1 EE
1 LS
Put In
1 EC
That's for my style of play at least.

King Solomon TexP does the same exact thing but adds it to play. That's why i would take out Hiram and add Solomon maan..

If I were you, I would use Coat of Mail to ensure the proper functioning of TToD, and if you do that, I would defiitely not take out Hiram.

Tested out a similar offense last night, did fairly well but the Heroes had a very short life-span. With out Chariot would not have won at all. FWIW it was undefeated, but my D had more to do with that than the offense did. So David's Harp, Chariot, Brass Serpent Good Ideas?
