I played a game last night with my zaal 2 exalted list into cryx revenant crew and it went pretty well. I was initially worried about this matchup as I had never played it before. My question to you fine folks is what to change in this list to optimize it or make it more viable into other matchups?

My first thought is the rhino can probably be an archidon. I liked Drake's because this list doesn't have much ranged game in the infantry so sprays were my way of getting the most attacks per model.

Personally i usually do the triple immortals since it synergises more with zaal2's specific brand of "you killed my army, prepare to die" assassination vector. But double immortals is a good build too.

if you want to make other match ups better i'd run a beefier battlegroup than that. Zaal2 has Mage Sight so he can easily synergise with things like a titan cannoneer or raiders etc without having to use soulwards that much.
