These are some nice suggestions.

If I may:
Enslave Mind is Thaum 6 (not 5).
The Principe is truly nice, but I also like the Legionairre: they are quite a bit cheaper and have spears. I get some Triarius every now and then too just for the heck of it: they are good at repelling within their own dominion (enemy has lower morale).
I never get Centurions, Emerald Lords or Battle Deacons (not to mention: Cataphract leaders) -- do you use them?
It would be nice if you edited your original post to include either a brief outline of what apoger's storm thingy is or put a link to it.
Also, it would be nice if you included a bit more info on Communions: what you feel to be a good ratio of masters/slaves, etc.
Thanks much!
