-- assuming defToPutUp = class.def.Priest.<something>. Also assumes you used class.def.Priest.<something>.req for the
-- dependency check and that the dependency check returns true if the needed dependencies are in place, and false otherwise, and .action is able to be fed into your queuing mechanism. You'll certainly have to adjust this code 
-- to your individual situation
local dependencyMet = false
if defToPutUp.req == nil then

if dependencyMet then
  --queue() here just stands in for however you want to queue up the defense to be put up... it's not a real function I'm aware of
  queue(defToPutUp.action)
end
