With a defense that small you don't need any of the sites baring nazereth if you feel compelled to use it.
Water shaft is pretty bad.
Besieged seems meh.
you have too few heroes and too many good enhancements especially if you want to use the double cov combo, which I also don't reccomend since its 5 cards that could be put to better use.
-
add a Lydia
-
Needs more Faith in our High Priest.
-
I took out Lydia because her ability was useless, but she could be added for Susanna. Faith in our High Priest is an interesting add.
-
Q_Q Protection from capture and access to AoCP is useless, but a character who can be killed once, but then loses initiative isn't?
Besides that here's what I think.
If you're going to play a temple, you may as well be using Herod's - You've got enough enhancements that you can probably afford to chuck one.
Lay Down your Life > Resurrection. Preventative measures are better than reactive ones.
You seem to have a few more Good enhancements than characters, I'd try to even out that ratio a bit, I'd cut Burning Bush and Benedictus for Asaph and Lydia. I just don't like Burning Bush in general, and since you're not super reliant on TGT, you shouldn't need benedictus either - Lydia for protection from capture, and optional AoC splash, and Asaph for Magnificat CBN even though he doesn't quite fit the theme.
-
I am Love and I am Truth don't work together for CBN recursion of No Need For Spices, in case you thought it was. One says ignore, the other says ignores. I'm not sure which is which, but that's three slots cleared up.
-
So I can't recur a card that ignores...seriously?
-
+1 Why couldn't you ?
-
So I can't recur a card that ignores...seriously?
Seriously. It's the same principle that says you can't play an enhancement that says "placed" with High Places...One of the unfortunate realities of playing cards as they were written, not as they should be written.
-
And the most foolish way to rule said situation. All cards with old/bad wording need play as. AKA all cards effected by that ruling.

Changing wording would be eratta and that's much more difficult since rob needs to approve it.

I'm surprised this hasn't been brought up yet...Uthminister is playing with only 56 cards?
