Felt like making a list for my tanks, and this is what I came up with. For a friendly game, I decided not to use Pask on a punisher.
1430pts
Warlord: - 160pt
CCS w/Lascannon
-Kurov's Aquilla, Power Sword, Carapace for the Commander
HQs
2x Priests w/Autoguns
Troops:
Vets - 165pt
2x Meltaguns, Flamer, Chimera, Grenadier
Platoon - 390pt
--PCS
---2x20 man w/ 4x Autocannons, 4x Meltaguns, 4x Power Axes, 4x Melta bombs
More HQs:
LRTCS - 335pt
--Pask Vanquisher w/Lascannon, camo
---Exterminator w/Heavy Bolters
Engineseer
Heavy Support:
Leman Russ Squad - 175pt
- Punisher w/H. Bolters, Camo
Leman Russ Squad - 165pt
-LRBT w/Camo
I'm pretty sure there are ALLOT of tweaks that could be made, so I was hopin' y'all would drop a tip/advice or two. I do so love comments on my crazy lists.

Boom! Leman Russ Commander

You have 3 hq slots between the CCS and 2 tank commanders. I'm almost certain you can only have 2 hq's lots. And this list is actually very light on tanks. There could be more.

Oi, forgot about the 2 HQ limit. Well, as just heavy Support (could split them up), I'm now at 1430pts left over to do stuff with.
Maybe purchase some extra weapons for the tanks? Perhaps drop the heavy/special weapons on the command squads for more points.
To be honest, I really only have 5 tanks, with one of them capable of being a punisher/demolisher/plasma.

Not a fan of lascannons on infantry squads. go auto cannons, or switch them to vets.
punisher with no sponsons? seems like a waste of a non-ordinance tank. also, if it's not Pask i would leave the punisher at home. you've got enough lasguns for 24" anti horde.
Vanquisher w/ no hull lascannon is a waste. also, without tank commander is a waste.
I'd tank commander your vanquisher, get him a hull las. have him ride with your buddy exterminator. give the exterminator some HB's.
Solo the LRBT.
Take a 2nd LRBT or LRD instead of the Punisher.
Drop some upgrades on your squads to make it happen.
Just my 2 cents,
-DB

Alright, I switched up the weapons on the troops, and tanks. Gave most of the tanks camo, and threw in a Techpriest.
Pask is on the vanquisher.

Marines will have an easy time, unless you swap the Punisher for an executioner. I'd do, the sponsons on it, the Pask Vanquisher for, "fun" is fine, but swap the exterminator for the above executioner in squad placement. A pair of LRBT singles in camo cloaks with a Aegis Defense line. It isn't "cheese" but it sticks well, kills well. Leaves you a standard Russ chassis. I like the eradicate for horde hunting... Your platoon can sit in the aegis as well. They don't crumble til those templates come flying at you

Not puting Pask in a punisher is a waste.

You should try for slightly bigger blobs. You really need to lay down a lot of lasguns and an opposite gun line will mow down 2 units of 20 quickly. 12 firewarriors will cut you down to half in one turn.
Pask in a Punisher. Here's why www.torrentoffire.com/5576/pask-bringing-the-punishment
He can average 3 glances on an Imperial Knight, and that's including its save. Also make him your warlord, re-rolling to wounds of 1 is pretty helpful when you're rolling 19 to wounds.
I'd take off the Aquila, with the PCS' that leaves him just ordering the Vets. Or just take him out completely and put ALL your russes on the field.
Some psychic support wouldn't hurt either.
Tank commander in vanquishers, otherwise leave vanquishers behind, you only have that one shot.

My friend runs a tank heavy IG list.
If I recall he had 9 Leeman Russes
This is not a tank heavy list, in fact, its very blobby.

Aftermath can be calculated.
