wish i could tag myself and say i'm Huge Egyptian but in all honesty i'm probs like Foot Bath or something

Contemplating the theological implications of this game being balanced or not.

I adore how poorly formatted the cards are. The huge text box area that is purely devoted to bible verses, meaning they have to put the actual rules text over the art is such a choice

Huge Egyptian is my favourite minor character from the Golgo 13 NES game

It is called Redemption. They've been running for nearly 30 years and are still releasing expansions. https://www.cactusgamedesign.com/redemption/

I can't get over one of the artist credits being basically just "idk lol"

i remember this! 😄

the game itself is actually kind of nuts, you draw 3 cards per turn. You only attack with one hero who's blocked by one villain, and then you and your opponent both stack a dozen equipments and buffs on them to see who comes out on top. You try to rescue souls from your opponent's Land of Bondage or something.

at least one version of the rulebook said to consult the Bible to answer any questions about card targeting regarding who counts as a "prophet", who counts as a "martyr", etc. It looks like nowadays they just have a giant list of qualifiers that they keep updated with their own Bible research though, which is better but way less funny.

also it's still going nowadays, and there's an expansion set called simply "The Women"

i am so unnecessarily mad about these card frames
