a) choice of pretender. I have toyed with the idea of the vamp queen, but she feels quite expensive and focuses on death/blood vs air/water. While I can add air/water, it gets expensive. What are folks thoughts - magic pretender vs combat pretender for the caelum? Which makes more sense? What paths to add if magic?

It's usually good to take paths your national mages don't have on your pretender. It gives you more options with magic.

Elephants seem good, but I soured on them when the second independent I attacked had a spectre lord who turned them to his side and used them to trample my archers

When routing mammoths and elephants will trample anything that gets in their way. So that's probably what happened. I don't think any independents can cast domination spells.
