What's your favorite summoning spell?

For fun and styleness: Troll Kings Court.
For just a medicore caster turn and some earth gems (okay, a lot of it) you get another medicore earth caster, who can take a few hits in combat and brings a gang of real heavy hitters!

Well, if I think about it again, trolls are all I need.

Lamia and fairy queens are two of my favorites. Spectre Mages can make incredible thugs/raiders with a bit of luck, too.

Of course tartarians. But I think I am addicted to Golems, either they are the best thing I can get or the best thing that will work [mindless]. And I have lost over 5 of them to turn limit bug already.

[Natpy]

Dakini. They are awesome

[Ylvali]

I like the harbinger.

wraith lords.
immortal reusable thug; but they can also take down chaff armies with ease. and they can even sit there summoning ghosts.
