Default Stacking and combining

If I have a A4 bless and hit divine bless in a battle, I know my sacreds will have 20% missle reduction.

Now what if I have 2 more Mages that can cast missle defense (I forgot the actual name), will they make the sacreds 60% immune and all other troops 40% immune, or will it just be 20% immune for all the rest of the troops?

Did anybody understand that....I guess I am asking do they stack?

There are two Missile defense spells, Air Shield which only effects the caster, and Arrow Fend, which effects every friendly unit on the battlefield. Both spells give 80% missile reduction.

I do not know if either stacks with a bless, though I think 80% missile defense is as good as it can be.

It takes 30 seconds to test this. At least for the Air Shield + Bless case, Arrow Fend would take a little more work but I'm about 95% sure it would work the same way.

Start up a EA Caelum game with an Air Bless. I used 40%. Recruit an Eagle King, script him to Bless, Air Shield and send him to attack. Observe the results.

Which are, for the record: They don't stack. Bless got him to 40%, Air Shield set him to 80%.

IIRC air shield effects can't go higher than 80%, which could by the reason for them not to stack. cause normally bless effects and spells do stack, for example W9 and quickness spells, NX+regen, EX+reinvig, etc. not 100% certain for A9/10 and lightning immunity, especially with Ironskin(or whichever 1 reduces lightning resistance).
