Just thought id see what dirty tricks people can come up with. Not sure who to credit but a few ive seen floating around.
Harrower charginging into a mass of knocked down or stationary infantry and buying single attacks to max out quick work ghost shot attacks. Shade3 and denny3 the usual suspects.

Scarveous + Satyxis + Wrong Eye and Snapjaw. AKA, "Ah you wanna shoot me? That's cute."

Seether tusk attacks a well placed sacrifice model (carrion thrall, usually ) Turns it into a pow17 claw because of berserk.

Additionally:
Backlash and feedback are two sources- it costs two focus to stop it
Dark shroud doesn't care about formation.
The Iron Lich Overseether reliably Crushes its targets.
Line of sight can be drawn from the back of a model so long as it ends up in the front arc somewhere. Great for seeing around the building you want to charge through.

Burster from the corruptor doesn't specify enemy.
Mcthralls turn into aoe 5s on demand.

pSkarre with Shrikes is pretty slick... free trample, 4d6 on hit with dark guidance, and ps16 on feat.

Running a wraith engine into a bunch of infantry without attacking. Then dropping an arced blood rain at short range or a kraken shot to generate a machine wraith is a tactic that has won me substantial space in a number of games.

Its old school, but using a Machine Wraith as an incorporeal, non-engaging, medium-based focus for Denny2's Hellmouth. I was able to snipe out a Kayazy Overboss and Kovnik Joe in one round past a lot of intervening infantry.

I was able to snipe out a Kayazy Overboss and Kovnik Joe in one round past a lot of intervening infantry. A Machine Wraith definitely engages when it has a model in its melee range. It's not because it's explicitly forbidden from making a free strike when Incorporeal that it doesn't have a melee range/doesn't engage. Besides that both engaging and being engaged grants the target in melee DEF bonus. This is why it can be useful to run into ranged models, they might not take a free strike, but they still need to move to be able to shoot, which means they don't get to aim. Apologies if you meant leaving it outside of 1" or turning it around.

Agathia's feat allows scrap thralls to run deep into an enemy's lines before popping. Since Agathia likes bonejacks already, gunslingers, clouds and necrotechs and scrappies can be a very funny combination.

Seether tusk attacks a well placed sacrifice model (carrion thrall, usually ) Turns it into a pow17 claw because of berserk. So how would this work? (Not knowing anything really about this game,) Reading WarRoom and your example...id run a Seether up to an opponent that has a friendly model in its melee too and attack my model with Tusks (kill it hopefully) and then wack the enemy model? Really confused how that works. The .PDF also doesnt help clarify any special rules that are potentially being referenced...hmmm. Google! EDIT - I assume Kill the Carrion with the Tusk to "waste" the PoW 12 there, and get a "free" PoW 17 on the enemy model.
