Re: LA Caelum vs. Ermor
If you have a chokepoint that's easy to defend, and problems on other fronts (Pangaea) I would just defend for now.
As LA Caelum you have several advantages: Flying Troops (so you can fly past his defence and strike at provinces in the heartland), Death Mages (capable of casting Wither Bones etc.), Air Mages (Seeking Arrow), not to mention a forge bonus for forging of anti-undead items.
If/when you're not under pressure from Pangaea, I would recommend multiple Strike Forces with Elders + bodyguards. Strike behind his lines and pump up taxes, jump out again. In the mean time let him throw whatever he has at your chokepoint (pump up your PD and make sure you keep some Elders there). When you have amassed enough troops attack in strength, while simultaneously casting multiple Seeking Arrow attacks.
In short, the way to win is by attacking with overwhelming force; you are in a great position to defend yourself easily while harrassing him, which should help you build up that overwhelming force.
