Conjuration

Conjuration is a school of magic. Its spells call upon the powers of this world and others.

If you don't select a target for Research, it'll be the first school your mages will try to complete. This is slightly concerning, for while the list of summoning and empowering spells Conjuration provides is quite robust, spells for properly supporting those summonses are in other schools.

Conjuration is mainly a lever-arm for outnumbering equally matched foes, or possibly for outgunning them. Aside from the troops and the mage-strengthening, many paths benefit from the ability to summon additional mages through Conjuration, along with spells for Site-Searching to access magical resources quicker; the efficiency of both of these tools is up for debate.

Many Conjurations don't work Underwater, and spells that do work Underwater will have that specified.

Conj 1

Spell	Req	Effect	Stats
Summon Cave Grubs	1 5	EUGH! These guys are wall-dissolvers. In battle, they're soft and squishy, but they can do decent damage.	Ritual Caves ONLY Local Cave Grub x10 (+½ per )
