Who has the best movements?
Personally for this I like Arcos since their cap-only mages can cheaply travel (air trapeze) to where I need them.

Probably someone with forest and or mountain survival, like pangaea or ulm (ea). It's a little trickier if you want teleporting mages I suppose. Marverni would work if you only recruited carnutes and boar warriors.

Helheim is kind of cool that way too. Also, you can use Stygian Paths to shuttle armies around. With high-MR, stealthy troops, Helheim is tailor-made for Stygian Paths now that the bug is fixed (yahoo!).

Astral nations with tough troops and/or battlemages, like Ashdod and R'lyeh, have access to Teleport/Gateway/Astral Travel. Ashdod can drop in thugged-out, blessable Adonim using Crystal Coin + Teleport. (You might think LA Agartha could pull similar tricks w/ their access to astral + death, but in practice I've found that they need too many boosters for it to feel worth it.)
