I agree that it would be awesome. I wouldn't want it to be a starter though, as starter abilities have to generally be a bit simpler. The reprints for Revelation Angels and Demons would have to have awesome abilities.Weren't There a bunch of Rev's in Warriors too?
I've been making Card ideas for Revelation Cards as well. They could also make some Good Heritics, Angels, Demons, Could start a Myrtyr set, The Seven Churches and more!Heretics can't be good.
And most of the Seals/Trumps could be reprinted w/ a lot more useful Abilites etc.
I love the idea!

That Years Natz Promo would have to be something Huge Like
The Antichrist
The Rapture
The Revelation
or Maybe even something like
Nameless

Faithful And True

There's a lot of potential there, I especially like The Rapture as a multi-colored enhancement, probably a set-aside with a long wait but a huge payoff. I can't think of anything good right now though, disappointingly.

Wasn't there a fan made expansion based on Revelation.
I would be against having a whole Revelation set, unless they were really careful about how powerful they made the demonsand angels.

I vote either
Cyan
Periwinkle
Coquelicot
or
Beige
Yea, I think the Brigades are good for right now, unless they make a Women only Brigade which was Pink, (Which would be kinda wierd) I believe that the Heavenly cards should be Silver as well, because they should work w/ Angels. It wouldn't make sense to not allow them to work w/ Angels by seperating them into another Brigade.No, No, and No. Hereitics are good, Angels need reprints, And plenty of demons left before you need revelation.
Angels need some new useful cards which only can be provided in Revelation, basically the same with Demons as well. And Heritics could actually become a viable option if they made a Revealation set.

Then they could make a blue/silver enhancement:Sadly, John can't even use it...
Beginning and End - Band into battle all hero's with either a Genesis or Revelation Reference. Cannot be negated if John is in play.
It would have the verse Revelations 21:6 "And he also said, "It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega--the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life."
Move it to holders territory for remainder of game regardless of protection. That fortress may hold 1 demon to protect all demons in play from discard by a good enhancement.
how bout a new type of card, an "event" card could be like placed somewhere( during like prep, without needing like anything ) just waiting to be active, like example :Well, instead of "event", I think it'd make much better to call it "Territory," as it's played in territory. Since this is a specific type of card, we should also add "Class" to that, so people understand how it works.
Fall of Babylon

there already is a territory "class card"
That would be Better as just an enhancement. And besides, I say that if people have so many problems w/ Doms that maybe people should start suggesting some Anti-Dom cards.
I wouldn't mind some more anti-Fort cards. I think that it would be more fun if there were some stuff that would make more Dom's useless. Same w/ Forts and Sites. But the Seals, and Trumps really do need to be reprinted and made better. Same thing with a lot of angels from Revelation as well.
All throughout the bible angels have appeared to people and have pointed them to the faith, read luke 2:2-16, the angels pointed them to see what would make them believe, and they believed the angels.1. Yeah, they proclaimed good news that Jesus was born, and they said he would be the Savior, but these people probably already believed the promise that a Savior was coming, the angels just said that the promise was here.
They have also helped people stay in the faith.Source?

2. This was not evangelism. Evangelism is pointing people to Christ's death, which hadn't happened yet.They have also helped people stay in the faith.Source?
In addition, if you can find somewhere in the Bible where the angels have preached the gospel (which you won't, because it's not there...) it will have been such a rare occurrence that it won't matter.
If preaching the good news is telling about the death of Christ then what did Jesus preach about all thourout the
new testament?
Jesus predicted his own death.Not only predicted but also preached about salvation through His death. John also did this by proclaiming "Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world."
and a source of that action is in Isaiah 6:7, and there are many more in the Bible to. that one just comes to my mind right now.I fail to see how that is "helping someone stay in the faith." Isaiah was a prophet, he wasn't in any danger of leaving the faith.
If preaching the good news is telling about the death of Christ then what did Jesus preach about all thourout thePreaching about the death of Christ isn't the only good news
new testament?
QuoteIf preaching the good news is telling about the death of Christ then what did Jesus preach about all thourout thePreaching about the death of Christ isn't the only good news

*sigh* Read Revelation: There's an angel that is sent out to preach the good news to the world.I'm not going to reread an entire book (I have read it a number of times). Citing your sources would make me looking it up much easier, since I don't have a clue where to start.
Plus I would say that Joseph would'nt of believed that the baby in Mary's womb was the Son of God unless he was told by the angel. And The Shepards wouldn't have believed some guy that walked up to them and told them. It's the same throughout the Bible, Angel means Messenger, if that is true then they could rescue people as well.
It's not God's preference but if he had to, like with Joseph, Mary, and more, he will use Angels, because a man that would have said that would have been looked at as a madman or being possessed by a demon.
And if Angels were mean't to be a supporting Brigade, then why are they able to rescue Lost Souls? Cactus could have easily put a note down that said: Angels cannot rescue Lost Souls. And that would be the end of it.
The other point is that then why can OT Heroes rescue Lost Souls beyond the prophets? They could not have told people of the good news! They didn't even know it much more than what the prophets said! And they didn't try to tell others about the good news ether!
If there is a brigade that destroys sites and fortresses, then silver would work. ;DSee, the thing is, Angels are renowned for doing battle. When I think angel, I don't think some plump baby. I think 9-foot-tall massive winged Angel! I like that they're a FBTN brigade, and fight with their muscle. I think that for a support brigade, they're pretty puny.
Funny that the worst two brigades fit your description (Red and Silver). If Redemption was about slaughtering the enemy, they should definitely be the best.If there is a brigade that destroys sites and fortresses, then silver would work. ;DSee, the thing is, Angels are renowned for doing battle.

No, it isn't specualtion. Here's why: At that point in time, after over about 500 years of silence from God, If he suddenly sent some normal person to tell Mary she was going to have a baby or to Joseph they would most likely say that he's crazy or worse, that he was possessed. The only possible way for them to believe was for a supernatural event to happen for them, like an angel telling them, it's the exact same story with the shepards.
You're right, but for the wrong reasons. Because there was 500 years of silence, no prophet (human messenger of God) could be sent to tell them, so God used an angel. Had a prophet told them, I'd bet they'd believe, but no prophet could because the silence was not yet done.
It's very unlikely they would have believed a guy that walked up to them and said 'The son of God was born in that cave there.' The Shepards would have thought the guy was insane.
Same reasoning. Personally, if I lived during that time, and any "normal" person would do that, I would think they're insane. If they were a prophet or Godly person, I wouldn't.
If that us true that Angels do not proclaim the gospel, Where does God say that they are not allowed to? And why then did he use angels to tell the shepards the good news, The women at the tomb and more? It is obvious that they did not believe that Jesus was going to be raised from the dead.
I can't find a passage saying that they do not, but we have been given no example of them doing any such thing. The shepherds bit has been covered, and the women at the tomb were already believers. Just because they didn't believe he was going to doesn't mean they didn't believe.
My reason for saying this is that nearly all people from the Old Testament did not spread the gospel, for that matter, most of them probably didn't even understand what Isaiah meant when he said what he did about Jesus. And to say that it's basically a belief in God then that is what the angels proclaim as well, like when the angel appeared to Balaam.
Faith in God, not spreading of the gospel, and the angel did NOT proclaim that to Balaam. He came to Balaam to kill him.
I have made ideas like that already, just check all my card ideas that I've posted.
The reason why their's a Female angel is because the set that it came from was based of the Angel Wars tv show that had 2 female angels. That's why.

-just a thought-
Just out of curiosity, even though I'm sure it's been mentioned before... while on the topic of angels, may I ask, "Why is there a female angel?" I'd like to read/know the reasoning and backing behind such a card.(https://www.cactusforums.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.redemptionreg.com%2FREG%2FLinkedDocuments%2FWickedness%2520Removed%2520%28RA%29.gif&hash=4f4abba36402316711d06873ff787fd4b240b612)

One major problem that u are neglecting is that these people are currently dealing with plenty of false prophets. Plus most people would question someone who claimed to be a prophet that suddenly appeared and said that some girl is going to have the Son of God. I mean Joseph didn't even believe her, so how many people would believe a guy that claimed to be from God? Most people wouldn't because God has been silent for so long, most people would deny that the person was a prophet at all. Don't forget: 'A prophet is never accepted in his hometown'
God was silent for a reason, and He wasn't going to break it when there were other ways. Had God not been silent, I bet He would have sent a prophet, but again, speculation.
Joseph didn't believe her? Source?
Regardless, the angel did not proclaim a message of salvation to them. It just told Mary that she was going to be the one to have the Messiah.
That's my point: There is no restriction that says that they can't. And next up, The shepherds were most likely not expecting the Son of God to come in their lifetime, and if he did, they probably wouldn't care, because they assumed that it wouldn't affect them. They may as well of been Lost Souls that were converted to our belief by angels.
*Insert a bunch of ridiculous examples of things we aren't restricted of doing* Bad argument. "You didn't say I COULDN'T do this, so I guess I can!" Yeah, try that one on your parents sometime. We have been given no demonstration of them ever doing it, and there is no promise that they ever will do it, and God has specifically said it's our job, even though He uses His creation as well. Humans can do it far more effectively than angels.
As for the shepherds, speculation again. I'm pretty sure all Jewish people thought that the Messiah was going to affect them though. If you're going to do that, practically EVERYBODY would be an evil character during that time and before that time.
Second, The Women at the tomb did not believe that he would be resurrected, and w/o the resurrection, our faith is useless because God didn't defeat Death. They did not believe that he could live again. They were as good as lost, until the angel revealed to them that he was alive again.
The resurrection hadn't happened yet. Again, if you're going to do that, practically everybody would be an evil character.
No it didn't, The Angel was there to block Balaam from fulfilling his mission. Faith in God is taught by everyone, Human and Angel. But you have to heed Jesus' warning, 'Even the Demons believe in God.'
Um, read Numbers 22. He basically says (this is paraphrase from memory) "I came here to kill you and your donkey saved your life. Don't hurt him." So it wasn't there to block him, it was there to kill him. It gave him a warning.
And when did I say belief in God was what was necessary? Faith, not belief. Huge difference.
