My server is blocking Neal's mails, so I do not have the full story.

but I can confirm that aura blast is broken. we have used blast prior
to the movement bug fix and again we tried in the last few turns.
We have several theories as to why it is broken, but that data
is not to hand.

has anyone else tried aura blast and experienced problems?

I agree with domme here and I think it is important that aura blast
should be fixed....the time we all have spend creating high power mages
is pointless unless it is fixed.

Furthermore, the bug is not restricted to ships. we have experienced it with
other
nobles in other inner locations(cities and castles)
