Agreed: it's a better way to turn your Vanjarls into thunderstrike spammers than summon storm power. With just 4 they'll be casting it cheaper than with summon storm power and the master can remove fatigue as well. It's also good if for some reason you don't want a storm to get higher A, which is reasonable. Some Vanadrott have an E random, don't they? If so, probably don't need a matrix on a dwarf.

Conventional sabbaths are a little limited - Vanadrott can get A,E,D,B; but Vanheim can already achieve any BF Air or Earth spells without, which means just Blood & Death.
