You may want a couple of manhunters instead of the forge seers just to have something that can run and contest as that seems the biggest weakness.
Other than that it looks pretty fun!

I figured boosted victor cannon under Signs of Portents would be fun. But yeah you are right this will be a problem.

Yep! I run a Viktor with vlad2 and his updated cannon is fantastic! Throwing it at plebs like Strangeways and setting him on fire if he doesn't die is great.

Honestly? It's not viable at all  But what is in your local meta? The only real way I can see it working is like this: People see 3 colossal list and are all 'oh crap I need to drop something that can deal with that', then you drop your other list which is designed to play really well into ARM+BOX cracking lists... (And if they don't have an answer to the colossal list then you get to drop that!) |

I have tried something similar with Hark' and It is a fun game. You can really put time pressure on people. I would agree with swapping out forge seers for manhunters as vlad doesn't need the focus as much.

If I were to try it, I'd be thinking more about using the cheap MoW Battle Engines to get the huge bases in play. Vlad1 feat + fast Battle Engine goes together well in WGK, so it could do in Armored Corps too.
Off the top of my head:
Vlad1
-Berserker
-Berserker
-Juggernaut
-Marauder
Min Bombardiers + UA
Min Bombardiers + UA
Assault Chariot
Assault Chariot
Siege Chariot
+1 free solo to taste and for contesting purposes.
3 huge bases, 4 jacks and really quite a lot of firepower. You get to stuff lots of ARM and boxes into your opponent's list quickly.

As Netherby said, its not viable competitively. you're liable to be jammed out of scenario and you're only taking less than 6 jacks worth of armour before you die.
But it will be fun to play. Heck, bring OW2 Victor and quad chariots and go six bases.

I've played it with Harkevich half a dozen times. It's not very good against real competitive lists, too vulnerable to scenario jam and if you lose one colossal on a flank that flank tends to be overwhelmed pretty fast and you lose on scenario pretty quickly after that. It can be fun to play, but it's not something I'd bring to a serious tournament any time soon.
