As for the Black Coach, I absolutely love the model and have played it in the last six games I've played. Sadly, it has consistently underperformed. It is excellent at getting into the opponent's backfield and tying unit or two up for a couple turns but the damage output just isn't that strong. In those six games I've also never gotten it above level 3 (stupid dice!).
I play it very aggressively and use it to get into my opponent's backfield ASAP, usually on the opposite side of the table I'm having my offboard units come in. The only time it shines is when it's taking on squishy units, like most battleline.
For how I play I can't help thinking those points would be better spent elsewhere. Just some thoughts from someone who has played a few games with the Coach and would love to see it work.
