Re: How do you use hydras?
Use Poison resistant troops, like undead, with them. Your commanders should be PR at a minimum, you can do this through items. Or make sure your units are really far away from them, but they'll probably mix in a long battle no matter where you put them. Or don't use anything with the hydras, set them on the far right of the map, and to retreat, they'll leave a big poison cloud everywhere that your enemies will chase them through.
ETA: One fun spell that looks like it will do well with Hydras, and Bog Beasts, is Moss Body. There'll be a lot of poison floating around if you're buffing with that spell.
