Djinn

Name: Djinn
Type: I guess Beast? I think it would make more sense to make a new type.
HP: 46
Movement: 3
Blocking: 30%
Armor: 0
Recovery: 3
Power: 0
Range: 3 spaces
Attack Pattern: 1 space
Attack: The Djinn has a variety of "Wish" attacks which will be explained below.
Death Wish: A unit wishes for power, but not the skill to wield it.
The wishing unit gains 5 power but adds a +20% blocking modifier when attacking your opponent. When an attack would be unblockable it goes down to 80%.
Companion Wish: The unit wishes for an off-field companion to aid him in combat. You select a unit from your off-field supply and put it in play. However, in a blast of irony the Djinn kills the unit that made the Wish.
You can't target your opponent with this wish.
Knowledge Wish: A unit wishes for knowledge, but not the wisdom to apply it.
The focus range of a unit is increased by one but it gains +1 turn wait.
Accepting new wish ideas or replacement wish ideas from Cross Punisher, Essence and possibly MisterBlockey. These were just some basic ideas.

this is a very cool unit, but I think it dies too easily. A dragon attack and 18+ power kills it. I think you should give it a bit of armor, then it'll be super sweet.

This unit is awesome, however I do have a wish to add. I wish that I had this unit to use in the game.

Some other notes I was pondering.
Possibly that only Humans have the sufficient greed and mental capacity to wish? This would prevent insane mudquaking and a 33 damage dragon.

For the wishes, are they permanent effects or focus. I wouldn't be upset if they were permanent, as they have their ups and downs. Clearly you can't wish for an off field dragon, correct?
What mechanism will you have for choosing which wish to make?
If I come up with any amazing wishes, I'll suggest them, but I can't think of anything at the moment.

Obviously you can't wish in a dragon because it would violate tao rules.
The effects are permanent but can't be cast multiple times.
Otherwise the game would just be a ticking time bomb playing defense while increasing the range of your enchantress.

But can be cast on multiple units, thus not making the djinn a one shot unit.

What gypsy you don't want the chanty flash freeze? lol

That's what I said. By saying the efects are permanent I was implying that there is no focus. I also probably would have said +Focus on the unit if this was the case. So you could have 3 very blockable knights running around with 27 power.
However if the Djinn is killed the effects vanish because the magic is gone.
That's right, in a horrific process the wished unit dies and the original unit comes back. This would have big strategic implications since killing the Djinn on purpose might come in handy.

Ok I will be very specific and clear on this.
You can only wish for a unit if the unit is legal to enter play, and you have to possess it in your extra units. Thus any unit that breaks restrictions or gives you 11 effective units would not work. It would be most useful in the late game to swap a knight for an enchantress or something.
