Re: Caelum questions, both themes.
Hum, I consider Caelum to be one of the best nations out there.
They have access to very synergetic paths, (Water and Air). Mammoth and Wingless go well with Storm/Mist/Arrow Fend.
You use your fliers as harrassers and raiders. Taking out provincea and driving up unrest, while crippling economy.
Mid game you should be using heavy summons in order to suppliment your armies (Sea Trolls, Spring Hawks).
Last but not least, always take Heart of Winter with your dominion with base Caelum, as you fight much better with Cold 3 enviroment. It is also a good idea to use Wolven Winter for large battles (multiple casts will drive down the temperature of a province).
Edit; Usually my initial armies start out with 3 Mammoths, 11 Wingless. Then I add in another Mammoth for every 4 Wingless and try to keep them at that ratio. I rarely have those types of squads break even taking heavy wingless losses, or losing a mammoth or two.
