One amusing use for immortal death mages is to spam lammashtas. Sure they kill you eventually, but who cares? You're immortal.
Battlefield flight range is unlimited, but probably similar to the moral check for passing more forward groups that ground troops on attack rear get, sometimes you get distracted and attack a closer target. Anecdotal evidence suggests that starting farther forward helps.
Higher research, but soul vortex is good?
How about dom 9/10 for awe? Will also help spread dominion, always good for immortals.
With other immortal death mages, mostly liches, I've found skelespam is as good as anything at taking most indies.

Summoning armies is usually good for immortals but then again, most of them dont have encumberance which means they can spam the spells for a little longer. For an immortal with the sort of combat potential the kunshu has i find it better to use it in a combat role but early on before you have access to many buffs/items yes, spells like summon lammashtas and raise skeletons are very useful.
I cant belive i forgot soul vortex! Not only is it usually awesome but when combined with phoenix pyre it is absolutely amazing. Units with soul vortex rarely have fatigue above 0 unless fighting many lifeless enemies but with phoenix pyre raising your fatigue so quickly the drained fatigue from living enemies is extremely helpful.
