In D&D Bladesingers are a sort of warmage generally exclusives for elves and half elves
I think we might start from that concept and use the image given by elvenprincess that Daniel wanted to use in AoF

Maybe change that to a smiting so it can take care of the undead faster considering that elves are the only race that uses wood units.

Ships and catapults are made of wood. My idea was an anti ship attack (magic arrow + burning effect)

Also undeads suffer against elves (they all have 80% spell resistance, so the undead control spells are useless against them)

The Seems a little too weak, maybe increase it by 2 attack?

I know it is compared to other races melee, but it is in line with elves units. Elves warrior cost 3 and has 8 attack but can't buff damage, has no special attck against undead, has no burning and has no ranged attack
The human warmage has 15 attack but costs 8
I think 8+strenghten is balanced for elves (that are a less melee race)

I might try to add more lines by making a bigger energy ball. The effect should have been a bit rasengan-like

If I may suggest some editing to this unit. I would do away with double strike, and instead let the proposed tech "perfectly balanced blades" give it an extra action to make it 2 actions.

I couldn't find the original. Is it archived?

No, it is probably just old. I'm merging both

I think that the latest one was the one with smite undeads. I must have forgotten to update.
Let's review the unit anyway. It is an old proposal and it might need some rethinking after the revision I've made to elven infantry

I would stick more with the double attack idea since it is a magical-based unit so i prefer a magical source double action that you need to cast on yourself from time to time.
Also this is some sort of less costly (and thus less strong) warmage. I remember i balanced it on the human warmage that costs much but has a native 2 action.
We might still consider lowering the cost to 4 since elven melee units improved in the meantime (originally they costed 3).

Well, I think smite undead is a human ability honestly. Let's avoid that here, especially when fire archers can toast undead with ease. At this point I don't know about burning weapon being as much fun as say lighting weapon though, still carried by arcane bolt. Maybe include the evade spell (
viewtopic.php?f=125&t=1411 ) instead of strengthen

the evade spell is still new tough. Unless you don't want to vote it now it might be a good addition, but first i think we should see the evasion tech pack in game.

Well, in current form this unit has been passed up for a good few votes, so it might be worth the wait to change it and add some appeal before sending it back in.
