Don't have the descriptions but you'll be able to summon some very powerful creatures.

I cant remember them all now, my memory has deserted me. But creatures you will be able to summon include, greater elementals and planetars and fallen planatars. Some other spells i remember off the top of my head are Globe of blades which is an improved version of Blade Barrier, and also Storm of Vengance which is a storm that covers a wide area and deals various amounts of different elemental damge to enemies. Oh yeah and also two more spells just came to me, Wish, and Bigbys Hand (which is goina be a damn fun spell) You should know about Bigbys hand if you have read Passage to Dawn by R.A.Salvatore.

Well I THINK what it is, I cant be sure since I havent read the offical AD&D desription of the spell. What I think it does is conjures a giant hand that can whack your enemies for you Though I do like the Harpell version much more in the book where the hand flicks enemies away rather than whacks them. God those Harpells make me laugh

ROLF. I would love to cast that spell on anomen. He is such a jack ass. I have already given him the rings of clumsiness and folly so he is a complete idiot now. A little (or maybe big) flick in the butt with a giant hand will do him good.

Both of the "hand" spells do initial damage at no save, then the target must make a save v.s. paralyzation to avoid being pinned or held, disabling them and causing additional damage each round until the spell expires. The 10th level Improved Alacrity looks dumb at first glance, but it will be cool when you need to dish out a bunch of spells in a hurry (it removes the pause between spell casting for 2 rounds; as soon as you finish casting one spell, you immediately begin the next one, then the next, etc.). Thus, you should be able to dish out a bunch of spells when you need it (works best if you set the game to pause after each spell cast).

YYEEEEPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The problem with three high level mages is I never get to use 90% of my spells.
I just use the good ones like the symbols and pierce shield...then rest.
