Yeah, it's an event in the Necropolis. But with only Azure Dragons in one stack, I doubt you'll be able to handle it with Vampires.
4 Bulls – that's a strategic move. Not critical, of course, but if you're going to replay (which is unlikely), you should use Bulls.
And in general, I advise you to read the rumors; I found a useful event there that I hadn't noticed before.
As for the Serpents... It seems like you can leave one computer player without upgrading Serpents and then duplicate units there. But this only applies to one Castle, and it takes about 8-9 months. In this case, the benefit is about the same as doubling Hobgoblins.

An earlier Capitol means an earlier start, an earlier capture of the Computer Swamp, and a higher chance of getting there before the Serpent upgrade. An earlier arrival at Inferno for educational purposes. In my current playthrough, it managed to capture a third Castle, and if you hurry, you can leave it with two.
And there aren't that many Bulls; by day 711, there are only 350 planned. If you aim for this timing, there will be about 4.5k Dracols, 400 Vivs. Is that enough for 500 Azure Dragons without losing your main stacks? I don't know. This is for a strategy with x2 Serpents from one Castle.

In general, I consider the Capitol on day 146 to be the strongest reason to replay – it will give you an extra 11k gold. And considering the need to kill both Cyclops and Chaos, this will save even more money, making Hitmen unnecessary. So, there's a lot of money. This allows you to attack the garrison and get Boots on day 231 (although I'm not 100% sure about the Boots).
60 Vivs, I think, is weaker – yes, it's a good army, but we'll get it too late, after all the most difficult battles with all the computer players, except for the Necropolis.
And Bulls are just a small, but useful, bonus.
But all of this is just thoughts about a more promising start.
