The article says that monsters are created that are the same alignment as the caster or neutral, so I thought that I could polyself into a black dragon and disintegrate Medusa's pet titan(lawful) without fear of Lichs or MMFs(chaotic) being summoned. and then the MMF ate my brain a bunch of times before I could disintegrate him, too. :-( So, what does it mean that the summoned monsters are the same alignment or neutral?

Yeah I think that was wrong, actually. I can't find any reference to alignment in mcastu.c for the summon nasties spell. I went ahead and changed that.
Not to armchair general too much here, but a burned Elbereth square or scroll of scare monster would have been far more effective, especially in combination with black dragon polyself. -Ion frigate 18:06, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
