Rock Paper scissors.

Scissors is negates.
Paper is protect abilities.
Rock is cannot be negated.

Works just like the game.

Thank's,okay I need to make sure I got this straight your cards in a game are chosen at random out of the deck right?

The thing for me is since your cards are shuffled it takes a long time to get the right brigade color's to work with.

That's correct, you draw cards at random from your deck.  Here are a couple tips to help you get the right cards that you need.

1) Keep your deck small.  Your deck should probably be between 50-63 cards.

2) Use one or two brigades on offense and one or two brigades on defense.

Keep the questions coming!  :)

Thank's wow! That helps a lot cause I have a huge deck and sometimes can't sleep at night trying to figure out if I have enough lost souls for my deck

Also where can I get single cards for sale? And find other players in my area?

www.threelionsgaming.com (http://www.threelionsgaming.com) sets the standard for Redemption singles.  Ken (the owner) has pretty much every card available.

also being new I would only use a 1brigade offense-1brigade defense deck

Hey,Thanks for the tips so far. I was just wondering about Dominants.The other day I was going through the rulebook when I realized it said only one dominant per deck??? ???

Title: Re: New Player
Post by: michael/michaelssword on October 09, 2008, 08:03:51 PM

no the rulebook says only one dominant as in one card like you can't have 5 Sog's but you cn have SoG and Angel of the lord

Title: Re: New Player
Post by: Dan_The_Redemption_Man on October 09, 2008, 08:10:07 PM

Oh and about the angel of the lord.  I was wondering I have three different "Angel of the lord"cards but they all have different scripture references and slightly different illustrations.Can I have all them in my deck? ???

Title: Re: New Player
Post by: michael/michaelssword on October 09, 2008, 08:14:59 PM

no they all have the same name and ability

Title: Re: New Player

Yes.

So a deck with 56 cards would have 7 LSs included in that count.

P.S.  Welcome to the forum :)
