Surely This Was a Righteous Man
Crucifixion Centurion is a powerful Common Soldier from the Gospel Age, costing 4 faith and offering an immediate boost in board presence. With 2 strength and 2 hope, it's a modest statline, but its Prophecy ability is what sets it apart. When played, this Being creates a 2/2 Soldier, giving you an additional body instantly. This creates a two-for-one effect that’s highly valuable in board-centric strategies.
This card's verse is Luke 23:47:
"Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man."
Strategic Use In Gameplay
This card delivers immediate value and reinforces aggressive or token-based strategies. Having two Beings from one card means you can quickly develop a wide board and pressure your opponent. It also plays well in synergy decks, especially those that rely on Soldier tribal effects or those looking to trigger Prophecy-based bonuses. In midrange or tempo decks, Crucifixion Centurion is a core unit that sets up trades, buffs, and further development on the storyline.
Synergies and Plays:
Two For One: You gain instant presence by putting two Beings into play with one card, creating early pressure or reinforcing the board after a clear.
Soldier Synergy: Works perfectly with cards and strategies that boost Soldiers, increase their strength or hope, or benefit from having multiple Soldiers on the storyline.
Prophecy Synergy: Triggers any effects or buffs that benefit from Prophecy activations, adding a layer of combo potential and tactical depth.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When is the 2/2 Soldier created?
A: Immediately when Crucifixion Centurion is played. It’s part of the Prophecy ability.
Q: Can I use the 2/2 Soldier the same turn?
A: No. Both of these beings have just been "Created", which stops them from challenging the same turn they were created. The Zeal mechanic overrides this delay.
Q: Is this card only good in Soldier decks?
A: No. While it shines in Soldier-focused decks, the value it provides makes it strong in any deck looking for efficient board development or Prophecy triggers.
