Does anyone have any tips or suggestions to use Kronos effectively.
Do any of you use Automata myth units ? Is there an effecient way to use them ?
I find they are slow and get owned all the time. I usually use them for defense only.
All suggestions are welcome

You shouldn't generally go Leto as Kronos or Oranos anyways. Prometheus is a must to get free early game heros and a hero cost reduction tech. Plus Prometheans are the only seige units atties have in classical.
Edit:
Most Kronos players rush. Go classical with 5-6 villies, timeshift you temple near your enemy during the transition, and send your oracles to meet it. Then valorize the oracles, switch to gold and wood, and build turma and prometheans, while your 3 hero oracles and free MU attack his base. Add more units as they are trained, and timeshift counter barracks next to your temple. Meanwhile, stick to outer raiding until you have enough prommies to attempt the TC, or simply guard all his gold and wood and go heroic/mythic for seige (I usually go Rheia for the free behemoth, and train a couple more, then take the TC). Works great against other atties, decently against norse and greek, and baddly against eggies (mercs, fast training times and free tower ups).

With Kronos you have to pass quickly to classic. But, if you pass too early, you should stick with 5 CTZ, with means less food+having to build.
If you go 6, that is +o- 30 secs more to pass, and the key of kronos is the speed...you decide, i prefer 6...If the rush fails, you have something to react and continue.

read my post in the strategy section entitled kronos rush. It pretty much outlines all the main points of the rush.
