Game Review - Redemption CCG

I have been playing this game for about 6 years now, and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. It is very unique in that it is based upon the Bible. It is published by Cactus Game Design, Inc (see Website) and is currently the longest running trading card game except Magic: The Gathering. Here is the full game description.

Title: Redemption
Type: Collectable Card Game/Trading Card Game
For Ages: 7+
Since: 1995
Description: Redemption® is a collectible trading card game of biblical adventure. Players use Heroes to rescue Lost Souls, overcoming any Evil Characters that oppose them.

This game is divided by 12 types (Hero, Evil Character, Hero Enhancement, Evil Enhancement, Artifact, Fortress, Site, Curse, Covenant, Lost Soul, Good Dominant, Evil Dominant), 3 classes (Warrior, Weapon, Territory), 8 good brigades (White, Gold, Blue, Green, Purple, Teal, Red, Silver) and 7 evil brigades (Black, Grey, Pale Green, Gold, Crimson, Brown, Orange). Many deck archetypes are currently in use, being that strategy plays a very important role in this game. Spiritual cards include Son of God (here), Angel of the Lord (here), Blood of the Lamb (here), Redemption (here) and Grapes of Wrath (here); while historical figures also see play, such as Antiochus IV Epiphanes (here) and Emperor Nero (here).
