TheDemon has a nice
Bogarus guide that's worth checking out. Astrapelagist communions seem like a much better way to lay down thunderstrikes than using Starets with gems.
Bogarus is all about getting as many mages as possible as soon as possible IMHO, which is the main reason to go for scales. You should have numbers and you'll have pretty good mobility too, as Astrapelagists can cloud trapeze and one in four Starets and Masters of Names can teleport (they can all teleport with a cap). One Starets and one Astrapelagist is all you need to force multiply a mass of (preferably indie) archers with wind guide/flaming arrows, and a bunch of Astrapelagists and/or Masters of Names have a lot of things they can do with or without communions. Your end game is blood, but Tartarians are not out of the question if you plan for them.
By the way, anyone know what the plural of Starets would be? Staretsi?
