Default Re: Ghouls

Absolutes tend to always be arguable, everything has its pros and cons. In general, Im not sure if ANY summoning site is particularly useful if you have to keep creating a special commander and send it to pick up the units. BUT if the site is on the path that commanders have to move anyway and they can pick some up on the way then they can add some useful variety to an army. Or in a far forward location where a mage might be just waiting for awhile anyway.

As far as ghouls go, how would a site compare to reanimation? or a spell? If it doesnt impact population, doesnt cost gems, and generates about the same number of units (not sure on any of those) then it just becomes the usefulness of ghouls. I wouldnt build an army of them but their special abilities can make them useful to have a few along
