I tend to play Lanka with a E9N9 bless(Imprisoned cyclops, makes a nice SC when he breaks out) but I've also tried and enjoyed W9N9 and W9E9.
I stick with E9N9 because it helps all of your sacreds survive - you get extra protection from both earth and berserk, regeneration from the nature and reinvigoration from the earth.
The berserking mages can be annoying but you can always just keep them away from priests you have scripted to bless so that they don't go berserk at the start(when spells like earthquake/rain of stones ect are most likely to be cast).

The E9N9 is also great on the late game Mandahas and Davanas - units who rely more on their toughness than their defence.
