Title: Behemoth card is needed to be made...
Post by: Wings of Music on January 22, 2010, 08:32:50 PM

The Behemoth has not been made, and he needs to be created. This ancient dinosaur mentioned in the Bible is a significant character needed to be put into a card.

What are some ideas?[/center]

A friend and I suggest it be made a Territory Card and gives some advantage to good cards, whether it lets you add more cards to hand or protects a certain type of card.

What are everyone's thoughts?

:)

There was a fairly recent discussion on this. I think it was decided that it would be too hard to say what Behemoth would be. The passage from Job says he is chief among the ways of God, so he probably wouldn't be evil, but animals can't rescue LS's, so he can't really be a hero..

Make him a dominant? Or an enhancement?

I made a post about this a few weeks ago that received a lot of replies. You should check over there. It is over one page. ;D

we could make cards based off the Behemoth, but an actual Behemoth card would be difficult.

I agree, an actual character card would be hard to make, but it would a good territory or enhancement card...

References to things like "behemoth" and "leviathan" really make me wonder what they actually looked like... were they dragon-like creatures, or just huge fish? What did they eat? How big were they?

I'm really curious to know this when I go to heaven.

Yeah, I want to know more about that and the Great Pyramid of Giza when we return to the big mansion in the sky.

But, maybe I won't care once we get there...

Our closest assumption to what these creature actually looked like were pre-historic dinosaurs. The descriptions almost perfectly fit what we have found in fossils for certain species of dinosaurs. It is so cool how G-d works by showing His Word to be accurate in everything!

G-d? Wut?

The Leviathan is a sea serpent, and the Behemoth is a Brachiosaur (of which at least a small population survives in the Congo).

Why not make it a creature which bands to a human hero and can not rescue a lost soul unless banded.

That might be cool. But it would have to have a pretty awesome ability for anyone to use it.

Here is your image for that card...

Or we made a Behemoth card amongst others when we came up with a new category of cards called animals...

Everyone wishes that Red was more powerful, but I don't think we need to resort to making it boring. Maybe something like this:

Behemoth
Type: Hero Enh. • Brigade: Red • Ability: 2 / 2 • Class: Territory • Special Ability: Place in your territory. All evil weapons are negated and worth 0/0. If your Red Warrior class Hero begins a battle and is blocked by an opponent's human, holder may play a Red enhancement. If holder's hero is discarded in battle, shuffle Behemoth into owner's draw pile.  • Identifiers: OT, Depicts a Weapon • Verse: Job 40:15

If you think about it, if my warrior is riding a Behemoth into battle, there isn't a lot that your weapons can do (thus the first part). Also, I'm probably going to have the tactical advantage (thus the second part). However, if you do manage to kill me, more than likely the Behemoth will get away and come back again later (this the third part).

Hehehe, "Ride into battle together" still makes me laugh.
