I thought that was part of the balancing. You might get someone of great power... but you might lose the games.

Also hopefully the AI will try summoning some of the royal elementals and other commanders... it's sad watching it waste gems on fire drakes. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Heh. Better "wasting" gems on fire drakes than wasting them on elemental royalty, unique devils, etc, when they're not available. At least you always get a fire drake. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

That said : seeing more of the non-unique summonings made worthwhile would be good. (Mechanical men, lamias, statues, and mmm, vine men/ogres are the only non-blood non-commanders I can think of that worth summoning now.) But supposedly some of the unique summonings are toned down in Dom3 - here's hoping.

Maybe it would help to make increase the amount of summoned creatures for most spells. Honestly, most summons are not worth the attention of a mage for one whole turn. Three or more might.

how about tripling the amount of units drake summoning costs and doubling the price? as said mage time is precious

Maybe you could connect the amount of units summoned to the path of the summoning mage?

I would expect my level 9 Firemage to summon more fire snakes than my level 3 mage

well of course there are spells that do that but some just dont
