Title: Alternate Win Condition....?
Post by: megamanlan on February 09, 2017, 12:47:25 AM

I've been considering this since I originally started making Revelation cards... And now I think I have the card somewhat figured out.

Spoiler: Day of God's Wrath (hover to show)

Day of God's Wrath
Good Dominant
Involves Final Judgement, Holds up to 7 Enhancements Involving Final Judgement
Place to your Land of Redemption: You cannot rescue Lost Souls. If your Heroes are only Revelation Angels, and you make a successful Battle Challenge and played an Enhancement: Place 1 Enhancement Involving Final Judgement from your Discard Pile here. If there are 7 Enhancements Involving Final Judgement here: You win the game

Note: Involving Final Judgement is exclusively the Judgements on the World (So Enhancement wise it's just the Seals, Trumpets, Bowls and the Golden Censor)

Here's the main points:
1. First, this does make the win condition more challenging to meet as you have to win 7 Battle Challenges in a way that you get to use an Enhancements.
2. It can only be used in a "Revelation Angel" deck (which I'm currently making Heroes for)
3. It would make the dynamic of the game more interesting as there is now a new aspect to the game and makes remove from the game cards more powerful against this deck.
4. It makes Battle Challenges matter more.
5. It means that Soul Drought isn't something to worry about too much.
6. It gives angels a unique way to play on their own for players that wish to play Silver-only decks.

I am very much open to thoughts on this and would like to get some opinions on the concept.

Maybe you could make it 7 minus the number of lost souls you've already rescued. Otherwise it  could hurt you to use it later in the game.

I could do that on some of the support cards.

It's actually the point, (My concept will have a lot of searcher's for this to get it fast) but it can't count LS's as they aren't involved in God's judgement of the world, and it would make the win condition too easy. Basically when it comes to the late game when you already have 3-4 LS's rescued, it's now the question of "is it worth trying to use this card?"

That and Biblical accuracy says I'd have to hold it at 7 or a multiple of that.
