Fun, yes, but elephantes nation doesn't really need awake SC. I'd think more about scales strategy - or rainbow Pretender with Earth, Blood, higher Nature... or include both.
What I personally don't like about it is a lack of some thematic things: a Great Conqueror Pretender (possibly more tough Ghost King), Phylosophers/Engineers return (and they were characteristic of Hellenistic times), some army features such as ballistae and/or Heliopolidae, plus professional light troops. Actually, I don't think sybillae are thematic for this era at all... Though, of course, LA is generally a period of Death magic in Dominions.
