Second for Barbarians. Horse Tribe Cavalry may be somewhat weak. But their chiefs are definitely quite useful. I'm not sure, though, whether AI has tendency to accumulate them - in any case that would be better than accumulation of infantry commanders...

Heavenly Realm: Air, Astral, Water

Caelum
Utgard
Plus Choice of Bogarus or Midgard

Standard Pretender choices:

Oracle, Virtue, Destroyer of Worlds, Lady of Fortune, Celestial General, Male Titan, Lord of the Sky, Son of the Heavens, Father of Winters, Daughter of the Dawn, Son of the Sun (Astral), Son of Fenrer, Manticore, Son of Neifel, Allfather, Asynja, Jade Emperor, Phoenix (maybe), Blue Dragon

I'd say Bogarus and either Utgard or Midgard in this case.
And would probably remove Big Bad Wolf from Pretenders...

Pangaea
Patala
Plus Choice of Agartha or Ulm or Pythium

Standard Pretender Choices: Sphinx (or Monolith), Great Mother, Forge Lord, Wyrm, Ageless Olm, Female Titan, Cyclops, Lord of War, Keeper of the Bridge, Great Black/White Bull, Lady of Springs, Mother of Rivers, Lady of Love, Gorgon, Carrion Dragon, Lord of the Wild, Lord of Fertility, Lord of the Forest, Divine Serpent, Mother of Monsters, Father/Mother of Serpents, Nataraja, Lord of Rebirth, Green Dragon

Maybe remove Nataraja to Heavenly team? And maybe add Jomon here - they seem to be mostly themed around Earth/Water in LA...

Abysia
C'tis
Plus Choice of Gath or Mictlan

Standard Pretender Choices: Fountain of Blood, Moloch, Prince of Death, Lord of the Night, Lord of the Summer Plague, Lord of the Desert Sun, Lord of the Gates, Smoking Mirror, Ghost King, Master Lich, Lich Queen, Lich, Saurolich, Deva, Bog Mummy, Dracolich, Vampire Queen, Solar Disc, Scorpion King, Son of the Sun (Fire), Son of the Fallen, Risen Oracle, Red Dragon

Maybe Abyssia or Mictlan? I would also move Solar Disk to Heavenly team and maybe remove Risen Oracle altogether (he is very Agarthan, but not particularly thematic for Earth team...).

Collegium Arcanum: (Rainbow theme level 6 max in all paths when designing pretenders)

Arco
Jomon
T'ien Chi'

And option to replace Arco, Jomon, or TC with one of the unchosen nations of the three realms.

Standard Pretender Choices: Colossal Head, Baphomet, Divine Glyph, Monolith, Freak Lord, Bi**ch Queen, Great Enchantress, Frost Father, Arch Mage, Arch Druid, Great Sage, Serpent King, Master Druid, Crone, Partholonian Sorceress, Master Alchemist, Great Warlock, Divine Emperor, Arch Seraph, Skratti[/quote]
Pythium would be quite thematic here.

One other nation, possibly R'lyeh.

Standard Pretender Choices: Sacred Statue, anything else not listed.

Not sure about Man here, but...
