Well unfortunately I have failed . I went 1-2. We actually ended up with 17 players. 5 GrimKin 2 Khador 1 Trolls 1 Convergence 3 Mercenaries 3 Cygnar 1 Skorne And myself as PoM. The game I did win was on clock out. The first loss I got out attritioned by Trolls. The 2nd loss was to Osarm Gun Bunnies. I feel like Kreoss2 is better....its just that he still can't deliver the army into the enemy. Sad to hear. I was honestly hoping you would have had a better experience but it seems my concerns matched your experience.

Yeah, I think he's better off in Guardians or Masses where the models are more durable/cost effective.

I will admit I am not the best player.
But I felt as if the army is pretty good. It's just lacking direction.
I think I'm trying to do way to much. Scenario, protect Kreoss2, kill the enemy caster, out attraction. Etcetera...
I think a focused assassination game might be the way to go.
Delivering a jack under feat into a caster will kill most of them in the game.
Again; I agree we have way better options and casters.

Yeah I agree we have other casters that can deliver troops much better. I feel that maybe at this point we should experiment with different themes and maybe different list archetypes. How could he fair with a list that had more of a mix of 'Jacks and troops? Sure you loose out on some of the power of his feet turn but what does it matter if he can't deliver? Food for thought.

I have considered a more jack heavy list with maybe 2 units of Errants providing a good screen. I'll have to keep doing experiments

Anyone tried Kreoss2 with Corbeau? Play him aggressively, let him counter charge, but keep Corbeau up and next to a Warder.
I feel like Kreoss2 really likes the Shrine, BUT it blocks up so much space given that his army typically has a lot of bodies that clump close together. Also I can't find room to squeeze Rhupert in there.

I ran him with a Warder and a Reclaimer. Defense 18 against living in melee let me play him way up to take advantage of Castigate. It definitely makes him a strong Hordes drop and I think that's where I'm going to use him.
