Priestly Crown would give me access. But is it better than using New Jerusalem and Promised land? Should I use them all? What should I take out?

For other site access use Jacobs Dream

Maybe you should take out Stone pillar at bethel and add in Davids Harp or I am Healing, but I don't see a problem with losing Heros

Add Journey to Egypt for Site Access.  If the hero you grant access to dies, simply recur the set aside with Asher and use it again.  It is the hardest to stop access card, in my opinion.

I would use the Wanderer LS, and if that alone is not good enough for getting to the NT Soul, you could use I am Salvation.  You have too many Evil Enhs.

agreed.  You can put in

I am Salvation

Type: Covenant • Brigade: Green • Ability: 3 / 4 • Class: None • Special Ability: Negate all special abilities on Lost Soul cards (except the "Lost Souls" card). May be used twice. • Identifiers: NT • Verse: John 3:16 • Availability: Angel Wars booster packs (Common)

It'll help you with pretty much any lost soul except Lost Souls.

Journey to Egypt is definitely your best bet.  If you find you're still having trouble with access, I'd probably recommend Priestly Crown.  Most people who run sites will have a couple of ways to get rid of your access sites.  Other than DoN, people don't usually have many ways to discard artifacts, so they're a little safer, in my opinion.

As has already been said, I'd also recommend switching Trapped in Cleverness for Obedience of Noah.  OoN + Jacob is a fun combo, especially if you recur it with Asher.

Leah txp is in the deck. I will take out trapped in cleverness for journey to egypt. I like that with asher being able to recur. OoN + Jacob is good. Thanks for the suggestion.
