What's the best way to remotely summon independents

[Bananadine]

What do you mean, bit flag? Are you talking about a flag that'd be part of a number that'd be specified as the #effect for the spell?

I don't know much about Special Monsters... but I have the impression that members of that "nation" don't stay around after they've won a fight. Otherwise I guess I could just create something similar to Ghost Riders. I want my summoned creatures to stay in the province! A way to make Special Monsters stay around after battle would satisfy my need, I think. I wonder what pennant the province would show then....

It occurs to me that a special nation could be added to the game for the purpose of occasionally casting this spell; and then the summoned monsters could just be allowed to belong to that nation. Then players wouldn't be able to use it, but the game's administrator could... that could have its uses, and it might serve my purpose. But it'd be a big hassle.
