There is not a Warrior class Gabriel. Otherwise with a few tweaks it should be good. How many cards is it?

The Strong Angel (preferably the Warriors version) would be helpful if you have it.

Just so you know, there are no female angels.  All angels are male in Redemption.  The card art may be female but for the game's sake they are all male. At least that's what I was told.

Not quite. Arianna and Kira from Angel Wars are both female. As to whether or not to use Arianna, it's up to you, but I personally prefer using other wasy to deal with the female only LS than adding female Heroes that provide little other benefit (FBTN LS, Wanderer, etc.)

Hmmmmm....confusing.  I can't remember who stated that....it was on a post a ways back.  the person stated there were no female angels even though Kira and Arianna are both female in Angel Wars.  They also mentioned about the art being female but the Redemption characters themselves being male.  It gets confusing when you're trying to use these cards, but yet one person states they are male and another female.  What are they?????

I've been running Angels for a while and I strongly suggest dropping AoW and Arianna. Just use FBTN LS if your having Female Only & NT issues.
Everlasting Beings is junk especially if you have Chamber, because then its useless, and I'd suggest using Live Coal over Flaming Sword because Live Coal can be recurred and can also get rid of annoying Curses as well. If you have a WC Mike, use Angel's Sword so then you can play Battle-Winners CBN and get Wheel within a Wheel (FF2) in there as well.

Birth Foretold just gets in the way more often then when it helps if you are only using it to Search SoG and I would definately use PoJ (FF2) as well along w/ Seraph w/ a Live Coal and drop Assyrian Camp so then an Opponent won't be excited to let you Search, and you get to shoot one of their Evil Cards while your at it.

Also just get rid of Army of the Lord, when you only have a couple WC Heroes, it's not worth it and Spiritual Warfare isnt much better unless its played Pre-battle (good luck w/ that...). A lot of times it's better to use cards like The 4th Seal (with PoJ makes it that you can kill any surviving EC's too) and cards like Fire, Smoke and Sulfur or other battlewinners (possibly AuTO for Drawing and maybe Swift Beings to get some SI too)

Also, just drop the Sites, those 2 aren't really good when I can win a Battle, rescue an LS and be 1/5th closer to winning at the cost of my Character. And Leper Colony works well if you do a LOT of Capturing and also is hindered when Raiders comes out.
