(CompArc p41)Summon Elemental reserve feat: lets you briefly summon elementals, and also givs a +1CL on summoning spells. (CompArc p47-8)Abrupt Jaunt Alternative Class feature (ACF): a 10' at will teleport (PHB2 p70)Focused Specialist ACF: give up 1 additional school of magic and one spell slot per level and gain an additional +2 spells in your specialty school (in addition to your initial +1 spell for specialization).  That's 3 per level within your specialty.Rapid Summoning ACF: Give up familiar to drop SUmmon Monster casting time from 1 full round down to 1 standard act. (UA p60)Enhanced summoning ACF: give up Scribe Scroll and Wizard bonus feats to gain Augmented summoning and have tougher, stronger, less dispellable creatures (UA p60)Metamagic School Focus: 3x day, reduces the cost of applying a metamagic feat to a spell by 1 level- +2levels becomes 1, 1 becomes zero, etc. (CompMage p45)Resitual Magic tactical feat: lets you apply a single metamagic feat for free to a spell that follows a spell that had been cast with that metamagic feat (CompMage p46).  That would let you get a metamagically enhanced summons spell for its usual cost.There is also the Domain Wizard ACF from CompChamp which gives you a clerical domain's granted power, and full access to the domain if you are already a cleric.  Consider a multiclassed Cleric/Wizard with this taking one of the summoning-heavy domains (Animal or the 4 elemental domains) with this ACF- she'd have 3 domains worth of powers & spells, including options down the road like some of the summon nature's ally spells and Elemental Swarm.UA also has at least one other ACF for Conjurors, but I don't have that book in front of me at the moment.Yes, I know a lot of that stuff I listed above applies to Specialist Wizards, but there's nothing to say that you can't multiclass, and/or weren't divinely inspired to take up the mantle of wizardry (possibly alongside that of divine casting).For PrCls, I'd either go for a Mystic Theurge (for the double spell advancement) or a Contemplative (for the 2 bonus domains).I'd lean mostly towards the latter- combined with a Domain Wizard, you're talking access to up to 5 Domains (and as mentioned by others above, the Summoning Domain is simply a must).  That's 5 sets of powers, 5 bonus spells per level to choose from.</blockquote>
