A Theme Deck dedicated to One of the Greatest Action Movies Of Recent History, "300". The General Represents the Corrupt Elders who dwell Atop The Mountain. I Like that they are the ones who basically decide the fate of Sparta and it's People by Consulting an Oracle. Played by Oracle en-Vec So The abilities of triad Fit NICELY.This deck Could Definitely Be stronger, But i have Made several Concessions of power for Flavor. Mostly all of My Creatures are Soldiers, and Brimaz, King of Oreskos Plays Leonidas, Odric, Master Tactician Plays The Captain, who Loses His Son (Played by Squire. Devoted Hero Plays The Narrator/ Dilios, who Loses his Eye, but Luckily, Has been Blessed by the Gods With A Spare There is Wall of Corpses , which is one of my favorite Scenes of the Movie, Wall of Spears which represents the spartan defensive Line. Spear of Heliod, Icatian Javelineers and Godsend cause they all Rock Spears and they are damn good with them! Bottomless Pit Because that's another Excellent Scene. and that card does inspire Comments Like "This is Madness" to which i reply "This .. is... SPARTA!!!Rule of Law Represents the Greek Love of Order, society, and Reason.Heliod, Athreos and Erebos are here so we can 'Honor the Gods... Honor The Carnea!"Theres a Tundra Wolves Representing Leonidas' Trial of Manhood.I like to Think of Wrath of God as the Storm that destroys a great number of Persian ships in The Film.There are a few Token Generating Creatures, and Mobilization as well as Launch the Fleet And Raise the Alarm so that we can up our number of Soldiers, though i have yet to get 300 Soldiers in play. Ive gotten close by blinking Evangel of Heliod a few Times. :) Archetype of Courage Gives my Soldiers Vigilance, Cause Spartans dont lose any defensive prowess simply by attacking, THATS JUST WHAT THEY DO. And Hail of Arrows Represents.. Well the Hail of arrows that block out the Sun! Though this time their pointed away from My Spartans' Faces. Temper Makes Me think of the Blood Drunk Captain, who rips thru some folks after seeing his Son Decapitated.

ANY ideas about Cards That fit with some aspect of the Move would DEFINITELY be welcome suggestions!! Im not Terribly Concerned about this Deck being Crazy Tuned, I just want it to have as many elements of the Film as I can Get Into it! Thanks for Reading, and giving it a Gander!!
