Default Battling Ermoria

First of all, thank you all for the warm welcome. Barely registered, and just a few hours later I have a PM in my box.

Secondly, it is a pleasure to be here.

Thirdly, I have seen some topics on this but none that answer me satisfactorily. I often play Dominions with a friend, and he often (or always) uses Ermor and seems to defeat me without fail. That in itself is not very signifigant, as I seem to always lose regardless.

I think I have a lot to learn, but in general - what are some effective tactics in fighting the dead?

So far, I tend to use just my troops, I think my weakness may be I leave the AI to cast whatever spells it wants, and dont really bother powering anyone up but my pretender.

I usually make my pretender either a fighter(Wyrm) or a magic user(archmage/freak lord, etc), but I usually create what I think is referred here as a "rainbow mage", and don't bother giving anyone else magic levels.

Comments on the strengths(if ANY :P), and weaknesses of my playing style are quite welcome.

My favorite realms are Ulm, Man, though lately I gave Caelium a shot. Love the mammoths but can't stand the weak troops. Again I think my lack of attention to magic may be partially responsible for my ingame failures.
