Instead of having it generate a card [something more suited to  :time or  :aether I think] why not give it a Freeze ability that has a cooldown?

I like this card!
I like that idea actually, making it an activation/target card such as eagle eye.  It would make the card much easier to operate.  Is a 3 turn cooldown still a good idea with the freeze/congeal effect or would 2 be better.  The way I see it working you play this turn 1, use feeze turn 2, wait 3 turns and repeat.  I may drop to fire prevention idea to simply this card if I need be to keep it balanced.

Thanks to vrt I have some awesome new art for this card.

Are you sure this shouldn't be a permanent?  Iceberg doesn't really seem like a shield.  Also anyone think this is a bit too much like Arctic Octopus?

Bone Wall, Hope, and Wings don't necessiarily fit the sheild theme either based on art or concept.  As a permanent, you could have 6 of these and it would become OP IMO.  As a shield, it gives water a bit of variety.  Less powerful, but more focused than permafrost shield.  Yeah, its similar to octapus, but freeze is waters thing.

I think that it should cost one more :water quanta, and Bone Wall is pretty theme fitting, Death for defense.

I had it at 7 at first and the the chat folk thought it would be a bit too expensive there.  I also made a few changes at once.  its one of tose cars tht needs 6.5 cost, lol.  I may put a poll up for it.

Happens all the time Jimmy we all mess up once in awhile.  :)) Like here.

NOTES:  -The shields reduce fire damage in adition to the 1 damage resistance.  This also applies to the effect of Fire Bolt/Lance.
-Every 3 turns you can click on the shield to add a Freeze/Congeal to hand if hand is not full.
-Freeze/Congeal effect becomes active second turn in play.
 
I noticed that a week ago.

Lack of sleep will do it, lol

Fixed the mistake.   After the poll is up a while longer, this card should be crucible ready.
