More legitimate FBTN chains. I feel like FBTN isn't a very viable Natz-winning strategy right now. Everything can either be negated or has a loophole. Or is really popular (CotH/Jake).

Make some stuff for Silver so it can stand alone. I do agree that is a strong brigade when coupled with another, but there are numerous examples in the Bible of angels utterly destroying encampments of the enemies of Israel. I'm sure that if 2 angels can wipe out a bunch of people, then an entire brigade should be able to stand alone.
I'm sorry I crammed 11 cookies in the VCR.

I didn't take the time to read everyone's posts.. so, i hope im not repeating

I wish Musicians had a few battles winners and a territory class enhancement to get 'em

I wish red had 1 more LS negater. maybe a weapon?

I wish (insert brigade) had a site negater.

I wish there was a New Testament version of G-Cow.

we need an artifact that says something like this:

"Negate one fortress in play. May be used twice."

or even less than twice...

oh, and I was wrong, it wouldn't necessarily kill heroless, since Rash Oath needs a captured hero. but with Given Over to Egypt...

I'll review the requests I made last year...

First of all, I would really like for Deacons and Apostles to become serious one-brigade themes: probably Deacons in blue and Apostles in purple.
Well, what do you know? Purple Disciples! Renewing the part about Deacons though.

I'd like all three of the priests' temple/tabernacle themes to become equally and significantly viable by giving benefits when their respective fortresses are out, making ways to bring those fortresses out and back from the d/c quickly, and making useful temple/tabernacle artifacts specialized for them.
Renewed.

I really want Musicians to get a battle-winner of any sort. They should also get at least one more character - maybe a David reprint.
I'm not very satisfied with the Hymns. Renewed.

I also wish Daniel heroes had a battle-winner and more characters, including a Daniel reprint. They should be given a really unique strategy besides crimson protection, perhaps combined with the ability to collaborate with Angels.
Yay Daniel reprint! But the theme is still not really a solid one, and even though I know people say Daniel was never meant to be a real theme, I think with angels and everything it could be big enough to at least be considered. Renewed.

I don't want to make Red like every other brigade, so I think what it really needs is a way to work without necessarily having to get initiative, like a protection of some kind. A card that would give Red brigade heroes protection from CBN/CBI abilities would be awesome for it's negating theme.
I'm actually kind of disappointed with Red. All it got was a character exactly like a previous one and two ITB battle-winners. It's on the road to being both terrible and generic. Renewed.

Luke/John heroes need a way to combat demons.
I'm very satisfied with this.

Judges need better publicity. :P Some reprints of the judges would be much appreciated, but I think they have everything else they need.
Renewed.

Greeks definitely need something - anything - to make them a unified theme. Of all the themes in the game, this one is definitely the worst right now.
A step or two have been taken towards this, but Greeks' theme is still not really unique in any way. They have a way to recur Abom now, which is good because it's pretty much the only thing keeping the theme together, but bad because there's still nothing else keeping the theme together. Could we get at least a little forced drawing here, or something?

Syrians really need either good non-capture battle-winners or ways to get rid of capture protection.
Renewed.

I want to see Brown's Persian and Israelite themes pick up, and the willy-nilliness of the characters to decline.
Okay, well, Persians got a couple of awesome characters, and so did Judean Kings. But the enhancements don't really unite any of the brown themes, so I still wish they could be defined a little better.

Demons need more developments on their bottom-of-the-deck theme, hopefully in the form of cards that can affect Angels.
I liked what demons got pretty well, but the whole bottom-of-the-deck things was totally ignored this set. Although demons are like the best brigade ever now, I still want to see the coolest theme continue. Renewed.

Magicians and Herods simply need to continue their trends set by TxP.
I'd love to see some magician-only enhancements, but the many characters that Magicians got this set (including the promos) are very satisfying.

Here are my new wishes:

A new green theme.

Royalty is falling behind a little I think, probably because Disciples hogged purple brigade last set.

I'd love to see more Job stuff.

Dude...Angels...seriously...

Egyptians need to get around ignore, and should also get some awesome deck discard stuff, since that theme is really weak.

Assyrians got one nice ITB battle-winner, but they still struggle with an initiative problem.

And keep going with Heretics! I love 'em!

Green: agreed.

Purple: eh, not too soon. it should be a zombie theme that dies and comes back.

¿lolwut? Job's whole point is he's a loner. he can't have any other heroes, and he doesn't need other enhancements...

yeahh, Angels kinda suck. but I'm sorta glad...

I'm going to try a Egyptian/Herod deck. that'll get around ignore and maximize Pithom.

eh, we have magicians now. Assyrians can wait.

heretics look awesome.

I'm not very satisfied with the Hymns. Renewed.

Say what??? Dude, Magnificat is (IMHO) one of the best non-purple cards in the set. Get around all immunity, ignoring, non-cbn banding, win the battle, and clear out for TGT. Easily recurable in brigade by two different cards (three if you have a White custom hero with the recursion ability)

I agree, some of the Hyms are pretty weak-sauce, but I really love Benedictus, sites are so huge these days, this is a great counter, and Nunc Dimittis isn't a slouch either, its like a super-susanna.

Ethan.
EDIT: unless you were referring to Ethan and Moses and the Elders...I just realized Magnificat is 4/3 or something, so Love at First Sight doesn't work, if I remember correctly.

What kind of disappoints me about Magnificat is that it's also usable by NT Females, giving you no incentive to use Musicians instead (except for maybe Ethan recursion).
