I've never used them, but I've had them used against me and they're pretty lethal for a couple of rounds. That says to me that you need a critical mass so that the battles are quick--which is exactly what you'd expect from wind-up troops. Maybe combine half an army's worth of Clockwork Horrors (~100 horrors) with Mass Flight + Quickening, and set the horrors on "Attack Rearmost". I can see that eating an equivalent-sized army pretty quickly, before they even get any buffs off.
