Default Caelum questions

Decided to try these guys, wanted to try out a magic centric race. I am wondering if I could get some advice on how to use their units properly.

What does your typical stack look like, as far as national troops are concerned. Just by looking at them, there seems to be two natural stack types as far as national troops are concerend. Ground pounders, and Pure Flyers.

I have tried both, and Wingless + Mammoths seem to work well, and have ok survivability. But any flyers seem to have really really short lifespans.

1) For Pure Flying stacks, what is the best configuration, deployment, and orders?

2) For arieal support in ground pounding armies, what is the best type and orders for them?

3) Do you guys use any of the flying melee units when Archers of any type are presant in the stack?

4) How many High Seraphs do you guys normally have in a indie combat stack, and a stack geared towards humans.

5) Beyond research, is there any use for the lower cost mages?

6) When things are running right, what does a normal casualty report look like? The reason I ask, is its quite common for any unit that actually gets hit (by either bows or swords) to either break, or at the very least suffer massive casualties.

7) Is it nessisary to have Storm Generals trailing behind to quickly round up routers and get them back to the front? I have had to stall several times to reform.
