As much as paul is great for HT. He is also a cm magnet. So I devised another way to get any color enh you want to be played first in battle. Any Old testiment one anyways.
Aaron (green) Prophet, Priest.
The tabernacle or Sol temple or Z temple
Table of showbread (to play any color enh on it)
Hidden treasures (to...Play first)
Tabernacle allows both artifacts to be up at the same time. Showbread showing them what enh doesn't matter much since you'll play it pre battle. Then R.a. with aaron. Ht activates and tada one obediance of noah on a green hero.
Additional thought: Make saul(yours) block aaron and play saul repents (or repentence, saul repents is so much more fun for the O_O? WAAH factor). And get 2 heros to HT with.
-
BRAVO!!!!!!! I must make a deck based off this combo! :priest: :priest: :kenobi:
-
This would definately be fun. Too bad you can't have LoTS up too. Just as Saul/Paul is a CM magnet, ToS or HT would likely draw DoN(s).

Hmm...this warrants a fun deck title. Hidden Showbread? :)
-
Yeah they do, that is an issue :( but usualy I include many annoyinger arts to keep them from donning it...U+T anyone?
-
Another art I find that gets Don'ed a lot is Unknown Nation. People just don't want to see another evil character materialize that they haven't calculated for.
-

I assume by "accidentally" leaving it up? ;)
I've found that U&T may be powerful, but most people hate it because it's annoying.
More than once, my opponent uses it to look at my hand, and then on my next turn I draw three cards and lay them down without rescuing. Their turn and they look again, when nothing's changed. ::)
-
O no...I forgot to deactivate my U+T! ;) ;)
-
O no...I forgot to deactivate my U+T! ;) ;)
that we all wish.
i wish someone would have the nerve to leave U&T up so somebody can feel better by don'ing the sucker straight to the artifact junkyard
-
which is exactly what I want.
-
Since when has Aaron been a prophet?
(Maybe this is a ruling I haven't heard of, but the REG doesn't say he is, and I can't think of any prophesies he made in the bible, or that he was ever called one)
-
Wow... I saw miriam was so I assumed he was. Darn it.
-
Moses was a prophet and Aaron was his mouth. I'd argue that that indirectly makes him a prophet.
EDIT: Wikipedia and the Koran both place Aaron as a prophet.
-
You got a scripture refrence so I can get him officialy prophetized?
-
From the Koran maybe. Just try it with God spoke to Moses, Moses spoke to Aaron, Aaron spoke the prophesy.

pretty cool. might put this in my deck.
-
or you could just use the Prophets Zechariah, he manages to be both, and he's a Z temple priest too, and its already official
-
Good call.

Hmm, a prophet and a priest...interesting... ::)

So actually I can make the deck I have in my head.
-
it should work fine, and guess what, he doesn't have a special ability so that means in a T1 deck you can have more than one of this prophet/priest that is protected from capture, conversion, and removal from the game with Z temple.
Is he from the house of Eleazar? because protecting him from discard would make him an amazing character...just my thoughts

I was aware of the duplication as well. Muhahaha.
-

Zechariah is not listed in the list of Eleazar priests in the REG.
-
bummer He's still pretty awesome though. you can just use altar of incense anyway
-
Dude, nice! I have to try this! And thanks for letting me know that zachariah is a z-temples priest. But isn't everyone forgetting about zaggai, who can band to zachariah, and is a green prophet also? He can't band if you have hidden treasures, but still is a green prophet who can play the first enhancement. :)
-
Yes but Green Prophets who can play any O.T. card are even better.
-

no one misses anything here. Haggai is okay, but is only as good as all the other green prophets, because Hidden Treasures is the purpose here. why Aaron and Zach are so good is because they're priests who can use Table of Showbread and Hidden Treasures. Haggai cannot play enhancements of any color through Table of Showbread, so is not as good for the situation.
and welcome to the boards :)
-
but he does pull out Z temple so the entire combo will work, you need a temple and since Z temple protects zechariah he is fairly useful
-
True. But so is filling the temple+zech anyways.
-
Deck built and being tested. Credit goes to Polarius for alot of help on that.
-
DOUBLE POSTAGE!
Yeah, child, it's called hitting the button twice.
-
Yeah, thanks for the welcome. ;D And I've played redemption for over 8 years and never knew about this. I am so glad now. And I just like canged my whole deck to fit this strategy, after winning the CA state last week! Props, it's totally fun to use and is good too! I like adding the gold hero from foof and then throwing in judges enhancements, so you have more than one awesome combos. And thanks for letting me know that Aaron is also both a priest and a prophet, I missed that one too. ::)

Oh, so your playing it as well? We should compare notes. (off boards.)
-
Yeah, I'll send a PM soon. ;)

WHAT THE HECK?!?!?!?!
THIS IS A CHRISTIAN WEBSITE!! WHEN DO WE START USING THE QU'RAN TO GET OUR REDEMPTION IDENTIFIERS????

Jihad!

FIRST OF ALL, CALM DOWN.
All set?
Any official Redemption decisions, like whether Aaron is a prophet, do not at all use the Qu'ran. Colin noted that, but it doesn't have anything to do with that decision. Only true God-breathed Scripture was used in the actual official discussion thread, involving Aaron being "Moses' prophet".
-
I was just pointing out that there are historical religious documents that point to Aaron being a prophet, not listing the Koran as Redemption canon.
-
BRAVO!!!!!!! I must make a deck based off this combo! :priest: :priest: :kenobi:
Do you make decks based off of everything, or what?
-
regardless of the necropost. yes I try to. I have restless deck syndrome (look it up using the search bar). this deck failed the only game it played at nationals
-
Just wondering (since I can't get the REG to open up :( ), are you guys talking about the Zechariah that has no SA and is 5/6? Thanks, and have a nice day!
-
The new Zechariah (in RoA) is a Teal/Green 5/6 hero.

But is the old 'no SA' Zechariah (5/6) a prophet/priest?
-
Yes. I believe all copies of the same unique character have the same identifiers.
-
Good. Now I can have 2 of them in my deck (and I actually have the dumb card in questsion this time). Sadly, I don't have enough battle winners from Green, and I don't have other arts. that would draw LoM, DoN, etc., so I have to add in a combination of strategies in order to make it work. So it isn't pure HT-related. :'(
-
That's cause there are no green battle winners! ;D
-
Battle winners? Green has PLENTY :-p they don't KILL things though.
-
they're way too specific for me. I want like aocp, or zeal, not cards that only target warrior class and guys with higher than nine strength. Yay for judges!
-
O_o; What card in green targets only warrior dudes?
-
David's Victory targets giants and warriors.
-

Plague of Frogs - Targets anyone, even people who are Immune to you.
Two Bears - Targets anyone, even if you just had a battle-winner played on you.
Those are two of the best battle-winners in the game, imo. Zeal you often have to kill one of your own and AoCP you have to kill all of your own.
-
Not to meantion those can be recured with micah.
-
Seeing everyone talk about 2 Bears, and Micah's recurring ability, I guess I need to go get RoA. Sadly, I have no money. :'(
Well, I did play my deck against my dad, and I got slaughtered because I never really used HT (my only battle winners were cards that had to be played after he entered the battle, so I could specifically target the EC he was blocking with). But, I did find that I like Table of Showbread, and I am working on my Purple Royalty deck again.
-

they don't need to. They're just THAT awesome. ;)
-
so did this strategy work to anyone that tried it? if not, why not? just wondering ;D

worked for me. I just like purple too much to use this. ;D
