Title: Pre-Disciples Purple/Crimson
Post by: Chronic Apathy on February 11, 2011, 04:36:20 PM: I just need some basic opinions on this deck. I know that running a 63 card deck isn't ideal, so I'd like to trim it down to 56. I haven't gotten a chance to get a feel for the game since Disciples has come out, so I'm not sure if anything would be best replaced or just taken out. Help?

   Guardian Of Your Souls
   Harvest Time

Also, if you go with a Crimson defense I would definately add in some heretics and the new sites. Maybe something along these lines for defense:

Lost Souls- 7
Beggar
Revealer
Hand Discarder
Far Country
Shut Door
1st Round
FBTN

Sites- 4
Chorazin
CP
Marketplace
Golgotha

Crimson Evil Characters-7
Creeping Deceiver
False Teachers
Leviathan
Nerg
Red Dragon
Sapphira
Nebby

Evil Enhancements -7
Christian Suing Another
Neb's Pride
Midianite Attack
Bel's Banquet
Wolves in Sheeps Clothing
Great Image
Torment
