I love playing as mages because there are so many tactical options for how the game can unfold. Strong units/mini-arts/a beautiful city and useful creature abilities.

Well, I wouldn't say there's a lot of tactical variety. Mages have 3 ranged units and few fast or high-damage units; genies usually don't last long and are more often used as support, and you can't just attack with cats alone; golems are very slow unless you boost them with mini-spells. So, in my opinion, the mage faction is mainly defensive, unlike, for example, the Sylvan faction. But again, this is just my opinion.
