[Twan]

The only time I tried LAP I took A7/E6 and rather recommand it.

The titan start with these path, so you can have decent income and magic scales (ie order 3, growth 1, misf 2, magic 1) taking a low dominion (4) with a dormant titan (or a stronger dominion with an imprisoned one).

Then the bless is excellent for both hydras and mages, and the paths allow your pretender to forge hammers and boosters, protect even more hydras against arrow with storm etc, and use the terrific rain of stones.
