Zeresh is great too because of her low numbers, she is persian, female characters are usually harder to get rid of because some enhancements say target "male character", and when haman and zeresh band you get the awesome effect and their numbers arent that high so in some cases you will have initiative to go into your haman plot or gibeonite trickery.

I've noticed that if you put the pharoahs magicians with Jambres and Jammes and other banding with required sites makes a good solid defence, tried it in a terny and one. I encourage looking at cannot be negated defence banding.

It is usually considered bad form to post in threads that have been dead for so long.

I understand that you may not have been around for a particular conversation but when it's over it's over you know.

Lol it's no sweat just for future reference
