please hear me out on this one and give me your feedback.

SAMURAI SHOGUN
proud and noble fighters who train to uphold justice, to defend the helpless, and to create balance within their clans and the tao world.Masters at swordsmanship they can rend flying arrows in two with their precissional quikness and block attackers from harming their allies.

HP:38
POWER: 18
ARMOR: 18%
MOVEMENT RANGE: 3
RECOVERY TIME: 1

ATTACK PATTERN: strikes one unit on adjacent square for 18 damage
has ability to strike diagonaly!

SPECIAL ABILITIES: 76% blocking front 38% sides
does not move aside for friendlies

can block attacks such as arrows from passing by (adjacent square ) or sword attacks hurled at their friendly unit one square in all directions but behind.

Has a modified suicide attack, if an opponent has the power to kill him and is about to deliver the final blow >from side and front only< the samurai will kill himself by running himself through,and will injure the attacker for 12 damage.

* if this is confusing which it probably is, i want a unit that extends his blocking radius to the adjacent squares, and that can attack diagonaly*

this unit will help turtles immensly because very few arrows could pass by the samurai, and he could sneak in a few quik hits diagonaly while hiding behind some knights.

as far as the extended blocking goes it only works when the attacker and the friendly unit both within the radius of his blocking abbilities

here is a diagram
f: friendly
S: samurai
E: enemy

sucsessful block 75% chance to protect friendly

All thats still a little confusing. What if the unit it's blocking for has better blocking than the shogun itself?
Has a modified suicide attack, if an opponent has the power to kill him and is about to deliver the final blow >from side and front only< the samurai will kill himself by running himself through,and will injure the attacker for 12 damage.
So if I have the shogun at 1 HP any attack on it will result in the shogun suiciding for 12 damage to the attacker?

In this example
E-Enemy
S-Shogun

00E
0S0

If I use the shogun to attack the enemy would it be a front attack or a side attack? It's probably a front attack, but is there anyway to go for a side diagonal attack?

It sounds like a decent unit that needs to be better explained. If you have weird scenarios, use a screenshot to explain it.

No it seems the suicide ability kills units that attack him directly, and it seems to me that only effects melee units. I really like the diagnally attack, that's very useful. The ally blocking though needs to be described better with many scenerios.

I think you may have a good character here it just needs to be explained better as Mithrandir said.
