Illusionist mage

[larspcus2]

Illusionist mage (the concept is original)

Hp:30
Blocking:33% front
Armor:0%
Power: 10 blockable
Recovery: 3 if moved and attacked or used special
Movement: 4 teleport
Attack Pattern/Range:assassin

Special: (range of 3) Choose 1 square within range. On that square another Illusionist mage is summoned. After the special choose which one you want to be the "real" illusionist mage by clicking on it. When you attack, all the squares around the real and fake mages get hit. Fake illusionist mages are destroyed when attacked, however, there is no way for your opponent to tell which one is "real" before they attack it. Each illusionist mage can summon up to four fake mages at once. You cannot move after using the special.

I don't like the name.

The Blocking is 33%, right? What does it block with?

Magic is usually unblockable, although this Mage's attack is not. Why?

Mages usually have a Movement of 3 and do not teleport.

Mages usually have a better Attack Pattern/Range than 1 Knight-like Attack Pattern/Range.

there is no way for your opponent to tell which one is "real" before they attack it

I think this might add some luck to the game. :(

You can summon up to 4 Fake Mages but not in 1 turn because you can only select 1 tilee within range, right?

Units that cannot move after attacking are called Focus units. This unit does not appear to have to Focus to summon a Fake Illusionist Mage.

How can the Illusionist Mage attack all tiles except tiles occupied by the Illusionist Mage and his Fake Mages and yet the attack can still be blocked?

When you attack, all the squares around the real and fake mages get hit.

This includes tiles occupied by your own units, right?

I think this unit is overpowered. In the middle of a defensive formation, summon a Fake Mage, focus a Barrier around your Cleric, and start pounding on your opponent's formation with unlimited range.

What's the point of summoning multiple Fake Mages if the attack is the same no matter how many Fake Mages you have?

[Shadowkill]

No no no, you get it wrong. Each Illusionist mage, fake or not, only hit 4 squares around it when attacking. Its like a summoning and underpowered assasins that die in one shot and cannot explode. However, you cannot really tell which is the real one... I suggest quake them both if possible and you will see.

Clarification: all the mages attack at once.

THis unit is really complicated. It would be really hard to use because its so complex. I'm not trying to be disagreeable but just its um... i think i overloaded my brain.
