Title: King David/Samuel
Post by: Xonathan on March 30, 2016, 12:11:54 PM
Can Samuel search out and band to King David? I noticed that King David has no verse but appears in the REG under 1 Samuel characters.

not 100% sure on this, but the red and green davids both have the same verse, so i dont see why the purple wouldnt be any different. i think that samuel would search and band to the purple one just like the red and green.

Samuel can search out King David. Since there is not a I Samuel reference on the King David card, he cannot band to him.

So in that case, is king david neither OT nor NT because he doesn't have a verse?

Also, because he appears in the reg as a 1 samuel character, doesn't that he should band?

King David is still an O.T. Hero. There are a handful of old promos that don't have a reference, a few cards with a Josephus reference. For those we simply use the testament or era in which person lived.

Also, because he appears in the reg as a 1 samuel character, doesn't that he should band?

That's an error that will be removed. A long time ago somebody went through and added references to the above mentioned promos. Even though David was never king in I Samuel, they gave him a reference from that book. We've since decided that we will not errata the referenceless promos. Apparently we weren't aware that King David also incorrectly appeared on the list of I Samuel Heroes.

So Samuel bands to armorbearer then to King David? Lol

It may be worth mentioning that the new Abigail isn't mentioned there either
