> PROPHET: Angel of Revelation, Guiding Angel

Didn't we reverse on Angels as Prophets? Orgininally they were but I
don't think they are considered prophets now.

I agree that they shouldn't. The verse before the one on Guiding Angel he
refers to John with "you and the other prophets" rather than "us and the
other prophets." Yet The REG includes angels and I have heard no ruling
otherwise. I would very much like to take them off the list. Rob?

A few comments:

>PROPHET: Angel of Revelation, Guiding Angel

Going by the verses, I agree with Angel of Revelation, but not with Guiding
Angel (although the previous message may apply here).

>FOUGHT IN AN EARTHLY BATTLE: Shaphat

Maybe I'm being picky, but the Bible doesn't say Shaphat fought in an earthly
battle. He was one of the ten discouraging spies, but it doesn't say he fought.

>PHARISEE: Herodian

While the Herodians often sided with the Pharisees against Jesus, they were not
a religious group but a political party. They were not all Pharisees.

>DEPICTING A WEAPON: Jacob's Grandson

I see a chariot, but nothing else that could be a weapon. I don't think a
chariot in and of itself is a weapon.

>Construction Begins

I think it's a stretch to see building tools as weapons, even if they could be
used as such in a pinch.

>CONNECTED TO DEMONS: Sectarianism

Given the verse I wouldn't oppose this, but the sectarian spirit was not the
result of demon activity, but of human jealousy.

Otherwise, all good catches. And my research was done quickly, so please feel
free to point out verses I have missed.

I took the perspective that as spies they "equiped military personel" with
information, and had it not been called off it would have been a military
campaign, which kinda qualifies for Earthly Battle. And if I'm not mistaken
he would have fought in several battles they had around that time in
Israel's history.

You are right, I missed the word "with" in the verse on the card.

There is a quiver on the side of the Chariot with a couple arrows sticking
out of it.

This depends on Cactus' definition of Weapon which isn't well defined at
present. I brought it up so that it would be addresed, not because I felt
strongly about it.

Hey,

Is Fallen Warrior a Giant? There is a ruling in the REG that says he is,
but in the list of giants and the end of the REG he is not listed and the
Kings version has the identifier "philistine" not "philistine giant."

I do believe he got dropped from the list. Always enjoyed him being one,
but really he shouldn't be.

I would think that, since the REG specifically states that FW is a giant,
that they left him out of the little side note list under "Giant" by
mistake.

The character depicted on the card is a giant.

Another thought, how does FW's special ability relate to a fallen warrior?

Hey,

In addition to the previous question"Is Fallen Warrior a Giant?", I would
also ask, does he count as Goliath? The picture clearly depicts Goliath. I
know he wouldn't count for name-on-name, but would it work for me to carry
the kings' Goliath's Spear on the Warriors' FW?

No, because Fallen Warrior isn't Goliath (that's in the REG, too).
However, Kings' Goliath's Spear on Kings' FW is a great combo, which I have
used many times.
