Tried something cool, found some cool magic sites!

[Edi]

There three most powerful blood sites after Summoning Circle are Mount Chaining (40% Blood bonus), The Demon Gate (summons one Fiend of Darkness per turn) and Devil's Lair (one devil per turn for blood mages). All are very rare, aside from Brigand lair, there are no common blood sites.

Banes can be recruited for free from Bowl of the Lost, which is a relatively common death site for its power.

Other good free recruitment sites are Skull Temple (banefire archers and longdead horsemen), Mausoleum of the Great Sarlah (Bone Fiends), Tower of the Seven Tombs (Mummies) and a couple of others. Some of the best sites where you can buy mages are the four Academies of High Magics, The Grey Tower of Nexus, High Temple of the Magii, the metal orders, Black Tower, Ebony Tower, Twin Spire Tower, Mirror Wall Palace and Citadel of the Loremasters.

Having a blood mage enter to summon a devil isn't as good as it looks. I won't go into a complete analysis but keep in mind that devils are only 7 blood a piece, can be had cheaper with a long term investment and a decent blood hunter will make more than that per turn.

That isn't to say it's not useful, especially if you aren't a blood nation and stumble on one, but if you play a blood nation, there are a ton of sites that would be more useful (give me the 40% construction/conjuration/loremaster/10,000 things, etc sites any day).
