Those are reasonable though badly spelled choices. Caelum, Pythium, Jotunheim and Ermor would be the other contenders IMO.

1. Caelum- Crappy flying troops, but excellent build anywhere mages give Caelum matchless strategic mobility and crazed firepower. They also get 120 points free on nation design because of the temperature preference and a fistfull of little advantages such as water item forge bonuses and magic weapons on most of their troops. Late game is not first rate, but they can overcome that by kicking butt in the early and mid games.

2. Jot- Giants smash! Wide magic, bonus for the cold, blood for the late game, thugs.

3. Ermor- Sturdy line troops that will give the excellent casters time to destroy the enemy, useful cheap sacreds, free undead, death and astral magic (two great tastes that go great together) and top notch PD. They got game all the way from start to finish.

3.5. Pythium (Ermor's cute but *****y little sister) Pretty much the same army as Ermor, communion from hell, and Hydras.

Nearly all the MA nations are viable. I think Ulm and Argatha are the two duds in the bunch
