Thanks for the help guys.
Baalz, I'm really looking forward to reading your MA Atlantis guide.
My biggest concern with this nation is that their troops are so damn weak vs land units(knights etc.). So I guess it's important to have good scales for recruiting as many units and chaff as possible.
sector24: I'm gonna try out a dagon tomorrow. Right now I have started a game with the kraken pretender and he seems pretty kick-*** with all that HP.
