Title: Pale green/crimson/orange and maybe brown
Post by: Noah on January 27, 2011, 03:04:17 PM

How would you make a deck based on magicains/babalonians/demons and maybe judean kings = Pale green/crimson/orange and maybe brown?

You wouldn't.

I'd keep it to just three colors but it seems like that could be awesome if you have the right cards.

magicains/babalonians/demons

Consider Babylonians have 2 Magicians (Astrologers & Chaldeans) and a bi-colored orange/crimson demon (The Winged Lion) this defense would be very easy to make and should be quite effective.

The Winged Lion
Astrologers
Chaldeans
Nebuchanezzar
Nergalsharezer
Nebushasban
King Merodach-Baladan
Arioch
Deceiving Spirit

Adding Brown would do more harm than good for a deck like this IMO.

I am currently using the crimson/palegreen/orange/brown strategy in my deck:
Astrologers
Chaldeans
Nebuchanezzar
Nergalsharezer
King Manasseh
False Teacher
Creeping Deceiver
KOT

^ps- with this you also need marketplace + gates of J
and for the offense, I'm currently using disciples

Depending which enhancements you use, I would consider switching one of the Babylonian Magicians (probably Astrologers) for Gomer (brown).

I would only use brown for something like King Manasseh King Amon and Wickedness of the Tenents.
And Cpt.J What enhancements do you use?

here are some of them:
hating the light
swift horses
judas plot
nebby's pride
carried into exile
large tree
belsh banq
death of unright.
forgotten history

that should be a good start for you :)

So the only reason you considerd it a "crimson/palegreen/orange/brown strategy" is because you have KoT in it?

well, i normally call it crimson/palegreen.... but since you wanted "crimson/palegreen/orange/brown" i thought i'd make note of the one orange and one brown character :P

I have a gold/black/orange/brown defense that works very well. Of course it is a defense heavy deck with lots of cbnb and only a few enhancements for each color. Usually I avoid using more than 2 main colors for defense, as it tends to leave you spread out. The banding defense is one of the few exceptions, as you can usually band to one of your characters matching the brigade color of the enhacement you have in hand or can band to your opponent's defense.

As for your idea I was thinking:

Astrologers
Nebby
Nerg
Winged Lion
Deceiving Spirit
Wandering Spirit
Spirit of Temptation
KoT
King Manasseh
Gomer

Mid Attack
Nebby's Pride
Swift Horses
Bel's Banquet
Forgotten History
Death of Unrighteous
Image of Jealousy
Gib Trickery

That should be a decent rough draft of what you are looking to do. Of course you will want Gates of Hell, WoP, Golgotha, Magic Charms and probably Gates of Jerusalem.
