The company command hunt weak squads along with a 1 veteran squad.
The ogryn go with yarrick and hunt enemy elite, they usually win.
The storm troopers and 1 veteran squad go in the Valkyries and hunt tanks.
The platoon is used objectives on my side of the field holding on longer with the help of the commissars.
The sentinels hunt enemy elite.
The lemon Russ demolisher goes after infantry and is good for sweeping enemy objectives with the heavy flames, while the vanquisher
Hunts tanks, it's my favorite tank as it murders enemy tanks as with past I barely miss.
Thoughts please.
Cheers pomyboy

You can pretty much run the same list for nearer 2,000 points if you trim the fat witohut losing too much.
CCS - if in a chimera you can trim bodyguard and carapace. Not really much use for voxes in this list and I would trade the vox and medic so you can get 4 special weapons.
Yarrick is also very expensive - a Lord Commissar is about half the price and does a decent job still.
You'd be better with 2 5-man stormtrooper squads with 2 melta rather than one 10 man squad. More targets and if they get into melta range then they tend to get killed the next turn.
HWS - heavy bolters is not adding much to the list. You have plenty of basic AI fire already.
Infantry platoon - lose the voxes for a start. Not sure the unit as a whole is really needed - better another mech vet.
Vets - power fist is not worth it. also question carapace if they are in vehicles.
Valkyrie with added lascannon - cheaper to just take a basic valk or get a vendetta.
2 Leman Russ are both very expensive. Pask rarely worth it and multi-melta sponsons don't go well with vanquishers and their long range - better suited for the Demolisher.

You have an illeagle unit in your list... stormtroopers can't have 3 special weapons.
I did the math... you have a 1850pt list bloated up with crap to 2500pts... and that wasn't adding in the armored Sentinels.
Dude, the Sentinels, really? BS 3 with a plasma cannon and effectivily AV 10 due to how easy it is to get side shots?
Why take off the Multi-Lasers? You don't want to shoot anything past 12"?
You have a /ton/ of bad choices in this list... poor weapon selection for the BS involved and bloated points the two major ones.
Why are you wasting the Stormtroopers buy putting them in a Valk? They lose half of their abilities and they can't give it to the Valk because it is not a dedicated transport.
I have to seriously question how this list wins, and who your actually playing, and if your actually playing correctly.

Just laugh at it biktom, I use to have lists like these and use to think they were xcellent and I lost, then I grew up into a big boy and decided I need to paint better and that I need to make better lists. To the OP just think about what each unit is going to do and if you have enough of that ok. I ask if my list is good to get rid of any creases of such.
