Need advice on EA C'Tis and charms/seduce/master enslave

[endomorphious]

very thorough response. I apologize for not making my needs a bit more clear. This game is with toughened indies and there are multiple very nice exceptional commanders of said armies near me that I would love to capture. (ie red dragon with magic items, Celestial General/emperor *don't remember exactly which one* with 8astral and a 9N I think it was, and I fully expect there to be many others out there. Time is critical as the AI's are toughened as well and their probably wiping out the lovely indie commanders that I wan't to collect :} I suspect I should just go with the enslave option earlier in the game. Research is set to harder so I won't be able to blaze down any research paths all that fast even with skull mentors. I am primarily focused on the commanders, although there are a few nice troops that would be plums to capture, some scorpion men, devils, and foo dog looking things that would be much happier if I gave them a home.
