Well, what Caelum attempts with mobility, you could attempt with stealth. Vans are highly stealthy, and formidable units. Odds are pretty good that small raiding parties can easily penetrate enemy lines and start burning down all of your opponent's temples and disrupting his supply lines. as well. Over level ground, Vans move plenty fast, and on the coast, their mobility is comparable and sometimes even superior to that of Caelum's fliers. A lurking Vanherse or Vanjarl is likely to be able to easily retake anything Caelum takes once they move on, even if they jack the province defense. Van commanders are formidable fighters.
If you can apply as much annoyance and pain to your opponent as he can to you, you'll be able to hold your own there.
