Perhaps as MA/LA Marignon? Hordes of crossbowmen boosted with Flaming Arrows, perhaps Wind Guide later on, protected by a small screen of infantry. Preferably shielded, to protect from friendly fire.

In fact, MA Marignon vs MA Man would be an interesting matchup. Marignon has crossbowmen, decent infantry and good cavalry, and the inquisition+Paladins and the comment in the manual imply that it's inspired by Spain with some French influence. Man is English/Britain, with longbowmen, elite mounted and unmounted knights, and worse normal infantry.

Inquisition versus the witches of Avalon makes for even funnier matchup.
You forgot the best weapon of marignon. Flagellants.
