thanks for the reply. So if I'm understanding you right early summons aren't very useful... its more of a 'late game' strategy or higher tier strategy per say?
Yeah, you are basically correct, Jah. The low level summons are not cost effective, due to how easy they are to research and cost. I only use them in dire emergencies, when gems no longer have any meaning (ie. my capital is about to be seiged). Certain low level spells have niche uses. Call of the Winds, for example is an excellent spell because it can summon a horde of awesome patrollers to whatever province you want to root out those nasty spies. Another good low level spell is the one that summons a Bane. They make decent thugs.
