Im sure that i saw something similar to this name in the CAU forums, but name doesnt really matter anyway. Just cant find a better one. Anyway, hope the abilities are unique!

Warrior mage

Description: Some mages do damage directly by using their powers channeled by staffs. These, however, use their powers to aid them in combat, making them a powerful enemies.

HP: 38
Armor: 12
Blocking: 75% front, 37,5% side ( see below too )
Attack: 20 + special
Range: 1 adjacent tile
Movement: 4
Recovery: 1

Blocking: This mage doesnt block with his sword, but use the power of his mind to stop attacks. So when he block, he doesnt turn - he stays facing the same direction.

Special: Enchanted sword: This mage use a sword equipped wíth arcane magic, making it break any magic effects on targeted unit ( paralyze, poison, barrier ). This wont break bonus attack or armor.

Im confused a little bit. So th magic sword does damage the target enemy like a knight and breaks focus spells. Doesnt hitting a target already break up focus spells. The premise is very cool, but I guess i dont see the point of the special. Try making the special power a little different, maybe more in line with a Mage, not just a warrior with a cool enchanted sword.

Good try though.

Attacking the victim of a focus spell will release it from the focus spell.

I think the blocking thing may be new to this forum, although it is the way the game actually goes in Tactics:Genesis. Freeing a unit from focus effects is old, but it isn't often used in an attack.

I'll leave it to those more ancient than myself to find the units you've crossed paths with. But I think this unit is balanced and quite useful. Good job.
