I couldn't really find a good thread to post this in so I figured a new thread for people to post interesting, flavorful, or powerful spell combos.
Do you think dance of blades is a weak spell? Then perhaps you're just using it wrong. Combining DoB with summons means that all of your summons will do at least some damage. When massing summons or trying to break a tough city, the first strikes really add up. In my recent game as the Calabim, I got a Chaos mana from my friends the Lanun and combined it with Vampires casting summon Spectre for an incredibly powerful military.
As a side note, Vampires are more powerful (imo) in that they're a t2 caster that comes with a much earlier tech than even the fact that they can feast. I barely feasted my vampires and just made do with 2 xp each to buy Death 2. Necromancy was a good tech for death manas to boost the spectres and would have gotten me chaos mana if I couldn't get it in trade.
