Actually, it's both of your original thoughts. It is a state a unit is in when your field consists of a certain formation. While in this state, the unit gains some benefits from its other abilities. Example:
 * Align(FRC|VC|-)(-|-|BRC): (If there are units in the specified circles on your field, this unit becomes aligned.)
 * Notes: "F" stands for Front, as in a Front Row unit, and "B" stands for Back, as in the Back Row. Can't make a proper image/wording yet, so I figured I'd clarify.
 * Note: This formation would consist of a Left Front Row rear-guard, your Vanguard, and a Right Back Row rear-guard. By having those units, your unit would be aligned; even if the unit was just placed/moved to one of the alignment circles.
 * [AUTO](RC)GB1:[Counter Blast (1)] At the end of the battle that this unit attacked a vanguard, you may pay the cost. If you do, move this unit to an open (RC). Then, if this unit is aligned, [Stand] this unit.
