Also, storm reduces precision on all troops. (either halves it, or -5, cant remeber)

Since I play Abysya, similar to Soul Slay there:
F3 Incinerate (don't recall the range)
S2 Paralyze and Mind Burn
S4 Enslave mind.

Incinerate cannot be negated by magic resistance. It is fire damage however, and fire resistance works against it. It gives 18+ points of armor-negating! damage, enough to kill most natural units except for Giants and special monsters some nations have.

Available as Very Powerful magical item as Rod of the Phoenix (Fire 3 => 20 gems). Quess what Abysian uber-slayer wants?

incinerate looks very nice to me
i found leech in the manual .
you need 1 blood slave to cast it but it does 25+ armor negating damage and affects an area of 1 .
fatigue is 100 but it is only blood 1 and you should get removed some fatigue from the leech effect .
all in all it seems quite useful to me does anyone use this spell ?

I uses very little Blood Magic in battle, very easy to lose slaves quickly due to burnout, arrowing, or other stuff.

However I'll try ^^

hm with 25 range for the spell you are very right .
perhaps a stormstaff helps there much. could perhaps be worth a tryout for vanheim .

AFAIK = As Far As I Know,

There are some other somewhat similar spells, I believe, though I don't remember which ones are quite like that. Deadly stuff.

Blood slaves are easier to use in battle when your units don't set them on fire with their heat auras... I have had good results with battlefield blood as Mictlan. Some of the spells are quite potent but can be tricky to use properly.
