I am looking for something to spice up conjuration. I don't want to be godlike or anything - I won't even use Dremora Lords for that reason. I am just looking for more variety and anything else to make being a conjurer more fun. Are there any good mods for this?

Keep an eye on phiTame. If you watch the videos on my nexus page you will get an idea (i think I talk about it in video 2) what I am planning to do. If you play the current release you will get the general idea, though conjuration will involve a soul gem trapping and ritual summoning mechanic where you have to defeat a special "boss" type sequence for a given "spirit" or undead/daedric creature in order to add it to your list of summons you can command.

So far it is coming together really well. I expect a release within the next few weeks.

That sounds awesome. I'll check that out.
