This month, Ken has launched a new feature on Three Lions Gaming, the Deck of the Month.
http://threelionsgaming.com/deckofthemonth.html (http://threelionsgaming.com/deckofthemonth.html)
July's deck is one that he received permission to use and he will be selling 3 complete copies of the deck for a reduced price than what the individual cards would cost (check out the link above to see the deal).
Starting in August, Ken is going to begin using decks that are a bit cheaper and also were specifically designed for the endeavor (as opposed to decks built for other reasons). This allows more people the option to purchase the decks as well as for Ken to offer 10 copies of each (rather than 3).
That's where you come in. During July, I'll be hosting this contest to get submissions to pit against each other for August's Deck of the Month. Interested? See below for the contest rules/details.

This deck is the epitome of American: we have Red, White, and Blue on offense, and the Atomic Bomb defense. At first glance you might think that it's a bit weak on offense, however, the true power of this deck comes in the form of territory destruction. You can search out and recur Loaves and Fishes with A Soldier's Prayer and Consider the Lilies, which will trigger A-Bomb. You can also wreck a defense with He is Risen!, Holy Grail, and Jephthah. Abomination of Desolation can take out any pesky territory protection (and Benedictus in the case of CP). To protect A-Bomb, we use Darius' Decree (which is then protected with Lampstand of the Sanctuary).
