Even if I do, I'll have myself a lovely a Gathered TSA (who will, probably draw out CM). I can easily win a battle with the banding chain, even if he does get CM'd, considering he is still in battle.

AOC (promo) wins a battle.

AotL wins a battle.

This isn't including any converts with Holy Grail, or capturing humans with Head of Gold either. Considering not all evil forts protect from everything.

Hmm, Lydia would be a nice add.

But, what to take out?

Aotl nowadays has a 50/50 shot at winning a battle. Assyrian camp protects from everything. PTRoom Protects from d/c and conversion. Philistines protect from capture.  I agree that a single color defense would really give your offense a tough time. That being said maybe add in lamenting for Jephtah's daughter?

Never. ET is wayyyy too important. In other ideas?

Why? you have only two purple

Every card can be found in the Online REG: http://www.redemptionreg.com/REG/

The Garden Tomb is a good Fortress with the ability, "If opponent has a redeemed Lost Soul, then Salome, Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Peter, John, and Mary the mother of James ignore all evil brigades that do not have at least two Characters in play."

Those don't really fit his deck at all, since he has zero ignore enhancements. That'd require a complete rework of the offense.

I would drop your Guardian, but that's just my personal preference.
