Default Re: Best summon?

Earth: I'm a big fan of the Clockwork Horrors. The sheer number that can be produced is very impressive. They tend to form the backbone of my defensive forces. Gargoyles are also really nice, but I can rarely afford them.

Death: Ghosts got to be the hardiest bloody units in the game. I've had many sessions where they were the only fivestar units around (they killed all the others).

Nature: I don't actually know why but I really like bog beasts. I mix them into armies with poison immune creatures and watch the death toll rises dramatically. There's nothing so bad that an ugly poisonfarting venomspitting swamp monster can't make it a heck of a lot worse.

Water/Fire: The Drakes. Again you get a lot of staying power for the cost and their immunities allow for crazed mage artillery support.

*Scratches head* I guess that's all. While there are a lot of cool creatures in the game I never find myself using them as frequently as those mentioned. I find bloodmagic to be too annoying to explore those units. Some units I even had too boost a little before finding any reason to use. Summon Animals and Corpse Man Construction come into mind. Anyone use these spells regularly?
