Stuck at Verona...

Blacks are great to whip out for boss fights where geyser is involved. Using one stack also has the side effect of leveling your dragon much faster. As a side note, my Level 36 mage is finding that I'm reaching the limits of using one stack of L5s pretty soon (getting a lot harder.) I actually had to whip out the phantom and target spells to get my army of 6 Reds to take out 1500 elves w/o losses. Unless I find Turn Back Time soon, I'll probably need to re-evaluate those boring paladins...

I don't know if a mage has enough leadership to do this as I've never played mage, but solo black knights with Eviln spell support might be something you would want to consider if you really like the solo unit concept.
