FEC Summoning and what is legal?

[Blisterfeet]

Scenario

FEC army with a GKoTG and 1 AAR who is general with Majestic horror, standing on a Charnel throne. 1 CP has been purchased and it is the end of the 1st turn movement phase.

Summoning options off board are 20 ghouls, 2 Varghulfs, 1 Infernal Courtier, 3 Crypt Flayers.

Question

How many summons legally can you do (how much CP if any used) and can you summon into their deployment zone?

The FEC book seems to indicate unlimited as long as legal units, old rules talk about distances involved (18inches) and online people say it is 3 as majestic horror gives a free one, the Charnel thrones let's you summon one with no cost and the GKoTG can summon the flayers.

Thanks in advance came up in a match today and we just got in a right mess as we don't own every book.

Each abhorrent can use his summoning ability once.

Majestic Horror means that when the character with it uses his command ability it doesn't cost a command point. It used to do something quite different last edition.

The Charnel throne means that any foot Abhorrent (AAR or Ghoul King on Foot) uses their command ability it doesn't cost a command point.

Any units you summon have to be within 6 of the board edge and more than 9 from enemy models.

So your GKoTG could summon in either 3 flayers or 3 horrors. If he has majestic Horror it doesn't cost a command point, otherwise it costs a command point.

The AAR can summon in any of the courtiers, 3 horrors/flayers or 20 ghouls. If he is on the throne it doesn't cost a command point, if he has majestic horror it doesn't cost a command point. If neither of those things is true then it costs a command point.

That is all they can summon that game.
