Is this really worth it when you can with zero gemcosts either spam false horrors or skeleton hordes ?
A dead dragonfly leads to a single manikin. When that manikin kills something, that also turns into a manikin. This snowballs very effectively. Two castings of swarm for example, can easily kill more than 50 devils, and probably much more than that.
True . Can dragon flies fly during a storm ?

Furthermore spelldescription states that it works only in own dominion .
So i wonder how useful this spell is all in all ?
It's a game-winner.
Hmmmm should be nice for nations which get lots of fodder pd like mictlan/machaka then too .

The only thing which lets me still doubt is if it is worth the massive amount of gems required to keep it up at least some turns .


How many gems would you invest ? 100 ? 200 ? 500 ? 999 ?

Would you try to cast it asap or rather later but with lots of gems ?
