Honestly I find Mandahas too valuable not to use as thugs. I mean you can foist off a staff of storms on any old mage and it sort of hurts to have my crazy expensive giant *** kicking demon gorilla tossing down thunder strikes for exactly the same amount of damage as my national mages. It's not really worth worrying about getting them killed I think because as capable SCs as they are (and good god are they capable), they're more built to command giant armies of demons so it's not like they're going to be the only target for all the enemy priests. The plethora of targets, plus their auto-darkness, plus the random commander with a staff of storms means that odds are good they aren't going to get tagged by too many harmful spells, and you've got equipment for what they do wind up getting hit by.
