Blade wind (52+ attacks, evocation 4, earth3) may be a good way to deal with glamour troops, or maybe chariots - as someone already mentioned.

Blade wind is evocation 4, so you won't have it researched till quite a long ways into the game. It also only does 14 damage, so it won't have much effect on troops with a protection of 12. I've seen two castings of blade wind cause a grand total of about 10 damage each when cast against an army of 60 Jotuns.

If you have more troops than the Van player you will keep their defense down and make hits (see manual).

I suggest trying an equal gold cost in C'Tisian elite warriors to see how this doesn't work very well in practice. Even with two attacks they very rarely ever hit.
