Unorthodox LA Ermor Strategies?

Been pondering to myself lately on if theres any way to avoid into the same old rut time and time again when playing LA Ermor. That is gunning straight for Burden of time + Foul Winds, Well of Misery, utterdark, and Soul Gate. Anyone have any strategies for Ermor that doesn't involve trying to be enchantment heavy?

99.9% of the time when playing Ermor this is the strategy I use

Gets boring after awhile.

I have a couple of sick LA Ermor strats that work by avoiding undead, which I feel are a honeytrap for the nation.

Play another nation?

I like to put F and E on my pretender as well as D, so in later game I can alchemize gems for money to build temples+forts when my land has turned to ash. I'm sure there are interesting fire/earth-based strats.

You could also make a pretender with nature and astral, and race up Construction to try for the Chalice for your tartarians. Tarts get the benefit of the Ermorian undead-buffing holy spells, right?
