i just found a thread with RR's take on it
but i think it was my idea first and so i improved alot on it and here it is

Type CDM

Colors Don't Matter

Deck Building rules: Type 1

Sites: the brigade of sites are the one of the only colors that will matter so when playing against a sitelock access cards will be needed

Good & Evil Cards:
this is really where CDM(Colors Don't Matter) really kicks in.
play good enhancments on differant colored heroes as if all your enhancments are multi brigaded same goes for Evil but only the  Good & Evil Characters' brigades will matter cause of the anti brigaded Special Ability'd enhancments out there like Cruelty against white & silver against good and laughter against every other evil brigade but evil gold and pale green as well as sites against heroes.

this play type also somewhat kills the special ability to be immune or ignore a specific brigaded character cause they don't stop the opponent from attacking or blocking cause you maybe immune to one brigade color when they can use another brigaded character.

Rule on Cannot be Negated

considering how many CBN cards are out there today, this is a new rule that cannot be negated will be played as cannot be prevented which opens up the ability to interrupt and cannot be interrupted can be prevented.

deck building rules:
this game uses either type 1 or 2 deck building rules (depending on which you prefer)

to balance out the deck building a prevent more battle winners from being overused, there will be a battle winner limit of 6 battle winners per deck, 3 for good, 3 for evil.
these battle winners are noted as follows: converters, ignore,immune, discard, and capture, and removal.

Removal rule:
here's another new rule, a character that is removed from the game cause of a special ability used by a card is instead removed from play and is sent into the discard pile.

name on name bonus applies regardless of play type

normal rules for winning souls for type 1 and 2

the no dominants rule no longer applies, doms are allowed

Feedback please

i was thinking that too
ok that's it
no doms PERIOD

as for the single brigade comment i don't wanna say to people who play sitelocks "hey you can't play sites cause colors don't matter" and i was thinking about the sitelock players is all
and i figure if i keep characters as single brigaded characters it would leave sitelock able to be played

i'd think the evil character wins by immunity, but you can play bow and arrow on weaker evil characters or stronger ones such as Naaman with naaman's chariot and horses which would be pshycotic

hmmm
i'd say if a evil character is immune to a single brigaded hero all other enhancments played on them no matter if it's another color won't have any effect

then how bout i make a rule that the cannot be negated special ability has no effect?

what do you suggest, professor?

Placer priests would rock in this variant.

Placer priests would rock in this variant.

Priests say "place on a hero of MATCHING Brigade..." maybe I understand this wrong but it was my impression that heroes keep their brigades, they can just USE any color of enhancement. I don't think all heroes and enhancements are multicolored.

So immune to (any brigade) = Immune to every enhancement?

this is the same with Rome...

sounds interesting, but I'd think it'd get out of hand with Words, Book of Hozai, Book of Jasher, Reach and AoCP. deck drawn on one hero. ET would be so beastly. just plop down a Spiritual Warfare...

It doesn't have potential until a way is found to prevent people from using similar decks. There will be two deck types: Speed and crazy offense heavy, and combo decks.

then i'll just have to limit certain types of enhancments

No, just No.

I wouldn't have a problem with banning all Enhancements that cause more than two cards to be drawn by a given player.

because being able to draw 4 cards (Archer + anybody w/ Namaan's Chariot and 2k Horses) followed by Gib's Trick, Wonder's Forgotten, Forgotten History, and Haman's Plot isn't a problem?

Make up your mind, is the offense or the defense broken?
