If you're worried about your expensive mages being killed, hire a lot of cheap scouts and indy commanders to play target.

Yeah thats what I do too. Although my research centers are usually patrolled by Call of the Winds or something similar so its hard to get an assassin in. I use the chaff commanders mostly with armies where I am trying to draw assassination attempts away from key leaders.
