Rush with lots and lots of Shapeshifters? I remember reading about it a few times, but I haven't seen it in action myself.

I've got quite a bit of experience with Midgard. I wouldn't call them crippled in the slightest. Skinshifters are fantastic units and make it easy to expand to start. Then the galderman provide good magic diversity, not great but good. Most importantly, they're guarenteed A2, which with a storm (since you have no archers this won't be a problem) gets you A3, which is thunderstrike spamming territory. Other than that, Galdermemn get you up to 3A, 2E, 2D, 2B, and 1N. Volga, your other mages, always have 2S, which is great for communes.
You can't recruit NATIONAL priests anywhere, but on the otherhand, you can only recruit priests where you have temples, and theres always a good chance any randon province will let you recruit the generic priest, so its not a huge handicap.
Yes, you do have capital only Vans. However, blessing them usually means sacrificing scales which means less skinshifters and mages in the long run. I never take those odds.
