Starting with the Women of the Bible expanion set came an all new type of card called the site card.  Before their release, a player would place his/her Lost Soul cards into a general land of bondage.  A player could attack as long as he had a hero to attack with. With the addition of sites, another strategy was added to the game. Now a player can place a Lost Soul into a specific site that his/her opponent can only access with the appropriate color hero or site. (There are sites for each color of good brigade.) A player may only attack if he has the same color hero as the site holding the lost soul or if he/she has an unoccupied site of the same color  in play.  (Of course, if there are lost souls in the general land of bondage you may always attack because no specific color hero is needed.)  If there are lost souls in sites and in the general land of bondage, the defender has the right to decide which lost soul you will fight for.

Site cards can be played in one of two ways: 1.) It can hold a Lost Soul or captured hero. 2.) It can be left open (not occupied) to gain access to an opponent's site of the same color.

Option 1:

Whenever you draw a site card, you place it into your territory.  If you have a lost soul(s) in your land of bondage, you may move one to the unoccupied site. This is done to deter your opponent from rescuing it.  It is good strategy to note what color of sites your opponent plays with and what brigades he plays with.  For example, if they play with the purple brigade, it would be pointless to place the lost soul in a purple site.  Leave the site open so you have access to your opponent's purple sites.  If you have two sites out, say a red and gold one, and your opponent only has gold players in play, place the lost soul on the red site.

Option 2:

         It is best, sometimes, to leave the site empty to gain access to your opponent's site of that color. Remember, once a lost soul is placed in a site, it may not be moved unless it is redeemed (won).  Make sure you watch what color sites your opponent has in play so that you can leave the right sites open to gain access to their lost souls.

Benefits and Drawbacks

       If you ask each Redemption player if they enjoy playing sites, you will get a wide variety of answers. Some feel that site cards add a new dimension and a new set of strategies that enhance the game. Others say that sites add too much randomness to the game, mainly because they can have a winning hand of cards but are not be able to play them because of not having site access.
         For better or for worse, site cards do make each game longer.  Again, to some that is a blessing, to others a curse.  It is usually best to check with players in your area  to see what everyone else is doing.  If they are playing sites, you should too because if you don't you won't have much of a chance of winning.  If players in your area are not playing sites, it would be unfair if you did.  Some players remedy this situation by having sites with them to include in their deck if necessary, or taking them out before they play if they play them.  It really is up to you.
