--- Human Unit ------------
This unit has a FOCUS spell that helps friendly units. It's spell has a Range of 3 and has a pyromancer attack pattern (affects space selected and all squares that are one away from it). Basically, the focus spell increases the blocking of the selected units by 60%.
- Other Focus units CAN receive this spell, but any blocking bonuses received by the WillCaster are negated when using a focus spell. For example, if cast on the Frost Golem, it will be able to block 60% front and 30% side, BUT it will not be able to block while under focus.
- Above 100% blocking
Take the knight for example. If the spell is cast on the knight, it will have 80% + 60% blocking. This will be 140%, which is a 100% front block and a 70% side block (half of 140%)
So, Furgon will have 100% front blocking and 55% side blocking.
HP - 48
Armor - 5
Block - 30%
Delay - Move (1), Attack (2), Both (3)
Movement - 3
Range - 4
Attack - Focus Blocking / Heal Spell

To make the mechanics more interesting, a knight's 140% boosted blocking gives him a +40% blocking bonus every time he is front attacked.

The +6 HP is overpowered, however. The cleric is powerful enough as it is, especially with the stone golem. 60% blocking bonus is nearly as powerful as the stone golem's effect, and this has a better attack pattern. So, take off the healing bonus, and I'll say you finally got a very old idea right. I think this is the first well-made blocking booster, although there have been plenty of bad ones.

1. I don't like you.
2. This is a Stone Golem squared.

It's blocking. Blocking is only half as good as armor, maybe a little less because of unblockable attacks. It's a stone golem with longer range that doesn't work against unblockable attacks. And don't say squared, that brings up crazy questions that shouldn't be asked. +1, like Coder says, is good.
