Humm, raised my PG to above 10 in all areas but when a unit is blessed there seems to be no effect beyond the raise in moral.

Only starting values count.

Concerning gameplay, the restriction of bless effects to the starting levels of the pretenders magical aptitudes is a very well thought-out design decision.

imagine how screwed you would be if you gave your god 4 fire, 4 water, say, and then your god died on turn 2, when you were going for a bless strategy early game. no more bless for you!

It would be MUCH worse if your Fire 9 pretender died, and your sacred units would lose their flaming weapons. Also, it would make boosters even more powerful than they are now.

As Arralen said, it's much better this way than if changing magic levels affected blessing.
