Title: The Great Commission

Multi, TC.
All characters with a civilization identifier gain the identifier "Disciple" and the alignment "good"
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit

I think this is kinda UP.  Any idea how to buff it?

Since I still play disciples, I'm gonna go ahead and demand this be printed. Thad and James are weeping with joy. I would start playing a very very large deck. x=50, you mad bro?

Edit: Yes I know that an X of 50 would have no practical application, but it would be so satisfying.

Thad and James the lesser could be the best cards in the game with this card... Maybe make a limit of three?

that would still put the potential # of Disciples to 15, add in crown of thorns and X = 18 now. Unless they start printing something really beastly this card is just wholly OP and I hate saying that about cards. This was pretty clearly done in Jest (at least that's what I'm getting from the "I think this is kinda UP") if this card were ever printed there would never be a reason to play anything but Disciples.

I'm pretty sure Randall was just trolling...

Apparently I'm not sarcastic enough.  That's a first.

The unlimited is not what makes this card OP. There are no EC's with more than 12 and F-Boat can't hold any of them so the good part is that all opponent's defense would probably be turned to useless heros.

Why can't Boat hold them? It says "disciples" and they would be "disciples."

Not only that, they'd count toward X.

No it says Jesus's twelve disciples and they would not be considered part of the twelve.

Obvious troll is obvious.

Yeah Randall got one of the cards I was thinking of but I thought there were more and the reason that  Matthias wasn't considered one of the twelve.
