I'm looking at starting a Dread mob force, but I have a couple of fears before hand. How do you generally feel about it? Too overpowered?

I'm also concerned about an update for 8th edition. I haven't really seen any indication of an update to the 8th edition stuff. Any ideas of the Dread Mob list specifically getting updated?

Lastly, size wise, would you consider Kataphron Battle servitors as close in size to Grot tanks? Or what about Kastelan Robots and SM Dreadnoughts, close in size to Kanz? I'll likely be heavily converting my force with pieces from a multitude of armies and just want to get some ideas for size comparison models.

The list is completely different. You'll probably be able to do something very similar with the new detachment system so your army won't be invalidated it will just be organized differently.
