Re: Blessing Question
Actually it's a little more complicated than that, though the basic advice is sound.
Bless is 100 precision. It will never miss its target. Sometimes it will miss the only sacred unit in the area. This does not seem to make sense.
If you look a little more closely it becomes clear. Though Bless always hits the one square that it targets it also has an AoE. Which squares are in the AoE are random. The AI tries multiple castings of Bless on different targets to see which one gets the best results. Then when it actually casts the spell it rerolls the AoE.
Any unit, sacred or not, or even an enemy can be the target. What matters is that the test casting got good results. This is what leads to the solo thug missing himself. It will never happen if he's alone, but if he brings chaff with him or if the enemy has fliers who attack on round one he could miss himself. Pan PD's harpies are good for that.
