The Summoner has to be the Best Deal (For gathering resourses) BY FAR.

A ranger can only gather Flora, the summoner with the Spell "Gather
Special Resource" (probably the best spell in the book) can gather ANY
special resource.

He has to use power to do it you say!  Well, as a summoner, he 3 points free.
That means for free he can summon 30 servants and collect 30 units providing the
rating in the sector is high enough.  The are some sectors that have special
resorce ratings higher than 30, but not very many.  You thus essentially
gather for free.

Drawback: If you use this spell repeatedly within a a production turn on the
same resorce in as province, you run a risk of the servants taking some units
with them and lowering the resource rating of the province.

P.S.  A summoner can be a money making machine.  Mine Mithril and convert it
in a town a 80 crowns a throw.  That was my main income source until I started
thieving the guilds in Rok Tathgar.
