Go

Pretty much just Angel of Warning and Aquila.
-
If you have some Genesis Heroes, Well Reopened (TexP) is territory class and can grab any Site.
-
Trying to pair an offense with gates of samaria defense (I'm gonna make it work) right now I'm thinking royalty because they have 2 guys that can search out the fort, just seeing if there's anything that can help with sites as well
-
With Haman's Boasting and Foreign Exile both available to Brown, I'm not sure you need to go with Royalty (though Purple/Brown does have a ton of synergy with King Saul and King Abijam as well as King Saul's Spear, Defenestrated, Lost Anointing & David's Census).
Angel of Warning should definitely make the cut even if you go with Royalty because of his ability to take the Site and play it immediately (allowing you to take out small ECs pre-block).

So here's what I was theorycrafting for a Gates of Samaria deck, though admittedly with Type 2 in mind:
Genesis Prophets.
Noah can exchange Samaria sites to deck for either two other flood survivors, or a green hero (Joseph being the big one, but CoW Jacob, Abel, and Enoch are also available). Once you get Samarias out, you can recycle them as well, allowing for more Gates triggers in addition to finding your offense. In addition to the Well Reopened that Guardian mentioned, Lingering in Sodom can pull the city. My idea also ran Creation of the World (with so many green Genesis heroes), an Abraham package, Ark of Salvation (allowing Shem and Japheth to trigger while also protecting all the heroes you're hopefully pulling with CotW), and possibly 12 Gates (again, mass protection and possibly some fun with so many Genesis heroes).
Never got around to building it, but I had some fun theorycrafting it.
-
Haman's Boasting and Foreign Exile can both get out the fort, but that's basically all they do, and having to build a site deck, space is very short, so not sure if there is room. Are there many cards that are silver and purple? coming prince and lost anointing I know are, but what else?
-
Walking on Water from the I starter deck is a nice negate.
-
The PoC phase 1 reprint of Covenant W/ David is tricolor, TC, searches for any site, and can be recurred by Music Leader.
That is all.
-
thats....kinda perfect, thanks!
-
Large Tree crimson from texp can search out a site if you place it on a evil king somehow.
