My unit that I made up is a pretty cool piece. It is an ice barrier that gives
+5 attak power to all units around it ( with in 1 space ). It has:
35hp
0 attak
0 defence
100% blocking ( only magic can kill)
It has to wait 3 turns after use.

Well ive tried to make units that increase attack but its hard to balance out.
And sense it has 100% blocking if you kill all magic units its gonna be at least a draw game. So it should be like a ward if you want to do that and you dont hve to kill it to win. And whats its movement?

Complete the unit and then I'll consider it. Right now it's very unbalanced.

Well the ice shard is a ward, it cant move. So if you kill all of the magic units, its just like a lightning ward. Maybe, once it is in effect, anything can hit it like a barrier ward. Is that a little batter balanced?

Yes. You forgot to say it entered focus and couldn't just keep adding 5 attack power to all your units.

If it has 100% blocking, it's a ward. Therefore it doesn't move. Let's use logic.

somethin just occured to me, if u use this unit u want to keep it focused rite? so i doubt u will use it in a free or anti etc. so u would probably use it in a turt....so then how would u stone if ur ice shard is there instead to increase attack? ;)
there may be a solution to this and im just not thinking :p...just a thought that popped up in my head

I think you would put this a knight's move away from the stone golem, and surrounded by pieces. Or, you could put it in front of the stone golem, then waste one of the stone golem's targets and one of its targets for more protection agaisnt focus.

That's ten units, no dragon tyrant.

ok to prevent anymore confusion:
this piece is a ward. You dont need to kill this piece to win the game (sane result as a lightning ward). Exactly, it gives plus 5 attak power to surrounding pieces, just like scb's setup. Im not so sure yet if you can use a stone golem as well to the same pieces. That wouldnt be fair, and very annoying to have to kill units with +5 attak power, and +30 defence. So that wouldnt be a good thing, and it would be unbalanced. So in effect you can only use a stone golem or an ice shard on a piece, and you cant use both on the same pieces.
I think that will make my unit acceptable and very balanced. It doesnt matter what set you have, because it all depends on the person who uses it. Please keep posting and asking me further questions about my unit.
thanx
