So I trying to build a 35 pMadrak brick for the new mk2 environment that can take a combination of all the warmachine factions and a few of the Hordes factions. My list so far looks like:
pMadrak
Mulg
Bouncer
Pyre Troll
Min Kriel Warriors
Kriel Warriors UA
Min Champions
Min Krielstone Bearer
Elder UA
Fell Caller

I feel like this is a solid list but I am looking for advice to make it more solid, in a very competitive campaign that I am planning on using it in.

I think pMadrak needs to have a shield out in front of his Champs; they can't rely on stupid high DEF to pull them through like they use to.

Here's a list that is very similar to yours I've been thinking about.

Madrak -6
Mulg 11
Pyre 5
KW (10) + UA 9
Champs (5) 10
KSB+SSE 4

That leaves you with 2 points to fill to taste.

The list I've been having good luck with, and a lot of fun, is something like.

Madrak +6
Mulg 11
Axer 6
Champions 10
Fennblades 6
Fell Caller 3
KSB+SSE 4
Gobbers 1

For a good ol' Smash Face aggressive list at 35 pts:

pMadrak
Mulg 11
Mauler 9
Champions 10
Hero 3
Fell Caller 3
Fell Caller 3
Chronicler 2

For a bit more survivability and utility, swap a Fell Caller and Chronicler for KSB max + SSE. I took this list out against a new player the day after I got Mulg put together (with a Dire Mauler Extreme as his running buddy). He made the mistake of clustering a bunch of infantry in front of my brick. Fell Caller puts War Cry on the Hero and attacks a light beast. Madrak pops Crusher, casts Carnage, and just watches the mutilation. Hero charges at MAT 12, thresher, weed-whacks almost the entire army and takes a stab at the caster. A Champion charges in the other direction and chews up the other side of the infantry and finishes the job.

Ravir's list is dirty! Although I prefer to go with the tried but true Madrak brick. Champ core with Mauler/Impaler support and seasoned with some Kriel Warriors.

pMadrak
- Mauler
- Impaler
Champs x5
Kriel Warriors x6
- Standard and Piper
KSB x4 + SEE
Fell Caller
Hero

Pretty balanced IMO - Has all the right models for a great brick and it also makes Madrak a scary turret of axe throwing doom. I find a little bit of range goes a long way to goad your opponent into your lines.

This is the list I'm running at 35pts:

The Thornwood Maulers

PMadrak
- Mauler

Fell Caller
Fell Caller
Hero

5 Champions
5 Champions
KSB Min Unit

The idea is to keep tanking across the battlefield and then destroy anything that stands in the way. Kinda like the Northampton Saints rugby team :D
