Agh, sorry guys. Let me clarify.
Large army, not necessarily powerful units, but above militia-level units, augmented by friendly enchantments. I'm hoping on developing an army of otherwise unexceptional troops that become formidable with a bunch of spells. (I know, I was hella vague when I typed that. I don't usually think of making a large army when I'm playing, just a couple contingents of really experienced troops and a lot of PD. XD)
Oh, and it's on a single player game.

Well, have to take your pick b/w Enchantment and Evocation. The paths that make for good enchanting (earth and nature, mostly) are not good for evoking. If I understand what you are going for tho, I would suggest you play Pangea. They have very strong nature and earth magic and have the Satyr units which are better than militia but not by too much. But... if you cast Growing Fury, Mass Regen, Mass Prot, Army of Gold, Army of Lead, etc... then they become incredibly dangerous. Also you can get those auto-summoned maenads which are pretty funny to watch fight after you jack them up with Enchants

try arco buffed hoplites, mystics and astrologers can buff (weapons of sharpness=very good) and ethereal, mistformed, armour boosted hoplites with weapons of sharpness kick *** and are tougher um... something! or you could try one of my faves, pangaean white centaurs with f9/n9, weapons of sharpness, armour boost, mass protection and mass regen. unbuffed(but blessed) they have good stats, high attack, regen, multiple flaming attacks and when berserk have wicked protection and strength. you can also use heirophants with gloves of the gladiator, horned helm, ring of regen, amulet of luck and any decent armour (i reccomend dragon scale). they get good stats, good regen, luck and 6 high strength high attack flaming attacks! and they are stealthy (get a dyrad to bless them)
