I'm not sure how well this stratgey would work in practice, I think the Simulacrums will go down very quickly and as DPR drops things heavily shift into Tiamat's favour.
(C) The problem is staying out of her range is a tall order, since she can dash for 240ft a round and some of her breath weapons can reach an additional 120ft. She can effectively fly up over 400 ft range when needed to take a break, her potential movement and range actually give her great pursuit/skirmishing in a kiting scenario, with her attacks being devastating enough that the additional help will drop off fairly quickly.
(D) What is the purpose of the Air Elementals sorry? Is this meant to be their Whirlwind effect? They can't grapple her and it's impossible for her to fail a Whirlwind save.
