Best size for a Speed deck = 50 (or 51 with Haman's Plot)
Best size for a Balanced deck = 57 (so it can have 8 dominants)
Best size for a Stonewall deck = 63 or 70 or 154 (if doing a big GoH deck)
This deck seems like a Balanced deck, so it needs 5 cards cut imo.

So, the 5 I'm thinking are 1) Storehouse 2) Thankful Leper (the odds of me lasting til opponent has less than 10 cards to draw from are slim to none....lol) 3) Ambushing the city 4) Pride of Simon and 5) Writ and I would add two more Good Doms which for me would be AoTL and Guardian. Sound about right?

I like the inclusion of sites in this style of deck. Sam decks can be slowed long enough for your defense to step up with white sites.
You definitely need AotL.
Words of Encouragement is better than Reach, as four additional characters can use it. Lydia's ability to play purple is interrupted anyways.
I'd drop Tassels for Cov of Palestine, as Salome can search for it, and it returns characters as well.
I think you can drop Ambush, Leper, and Storehouse, but I'm not sure what else can go, as that defense seems well balanced.

I know I need Words...I've been asking my bro in law to check to see if he has an xtra. I only keep lydia in there to use reach and then aocp.

Just in case you didn't know this, if you interrupt the battle with reach, it interrupts Lydia's ability to use purple so you cannot play AoCp. Since all 3 abilities on reach are optional, you can choose not to itb and still use purple though.
