Strategy[]
Treat your Angels like Great People that you can't settle until they're upgraded. Normally around this stage of the game when they come into play, Angels are weak and vulnerable to many enemies, especially those Assasins that would normally go after those magi instead. Keep in mind that the more experienced the Angel is, the more options of upgrading it will have as well.
An interesting and overlooked fact is that if The Pyre of the Seraphic is accesible to you, Angels can sacrifice themsleves there to become Fire Elementals.
Background[]
I died as inanimate matter and arose a plant, I died as a plant and rose again an animal. I died as an animal and arose a man. Why then should I fear to become less by dying? I shall die once again as a man To rise an angel perfect from head to foot! Again when I suffer dissolution as an angel, I shall become what passes the conception of man! Let me then become non-existent, for non-existence Sings to me in organ tones, 'To him shall we return.'
