Another disadvantage of Caelum that I don't think anyone's mentioned, and that makes them somewhat weaker until later in the game, is that their large size prevents more than a few of them from attacking a given target. Most nations can overwhelm a high-defense baddie by swarming it. Not so Caelum. Conversely, they are easily swarmed by hordes of junk.
caelum has little need for normal troops . i think some archers are enough to prevent routing . most work do the mages .
since caelum has the only earlygame fliers ( pan harpies , the expensive vanheim valkieries are the only others that come to my mind ) and can easy get a staff of storms to cancel midgame abysian devil flying armies etc. i think thats really enough or they can use a normal army with wingless + mammoths which should hold out long enough until caelum mages finish the work .
