Re: Caelum
I've had a good deal of success using Air magic against Caelum. Archers supported with suitable anti-missile protection generally outLast the frailer Caelum units, although they need a good infantry line to protect them from Mammoths.

I think so; only problem is that Vanheim doesn´t have any archers.

Re: Caelum
Indy shortbowmen are one of the most common units though, and don't require many resources to build, so you can usually get as many as you want.

Right; though I usually dislike building non-fortress units; slow and messy.

Re: Caelum
Ok, I have decided on a strategy. It´s a pretty original one, I think.
I am collecting notes for an AAR. (1v1 human player on Targa´s small map)
You´ll get the AAR only after the game, of course, because, for now, all is secret.

Well, you could always PUT a fortress there. Then it wouldn't be so slow and messy!

Otoh, High Admin Fortresses are expensive. And I don´t think Low Admin Fortresses work well with Vanheim.
On the third hand , my strategy is going to mostly work around all this. I think I´ve discovered a way to play even Vanheim acording to my usual Grind-them-down style.
