Re: Which era
Don't Celestial Masters come with a chance for a Nature random? So at least some part of you CM crew will not have old age problems.
I'd also throw a few chariots in the mix as well at least in the early game, at least as a flanking force vs. some of the weaker indies. C'tis chariots are better and almost as good (if not in some ways better) than heavy cavarly, as they get a length-3 bite attack, but Tien Chi chariots have better morale.
