So this army equals 1535 and I'm playing 1850. I need help in deciding what I need to change and what to do with the spare points. I am also willing to take allies such as Imperial Guards. Feel free to leave feedback.

What would be wise to do?

Would centurions be a smart choice?

Would allies be smart for this army?

Captain
- Change to a Chapter Master - 40 pts
- Change Power Weapon to Thunder Hammer - 15

Tactical Squads
- Your squads seems rather disoriented and schizophrenic. I'd either go anti infantry or anti tank, not a mix. I would change the special weapon for flamers and combi flamers. - 5

That leaves you 250 points.

You could.......

- Add a Vindicator. This gives you more armour saturation and adds powerful blast.

- Add a thunderfire. This gives you a very strong anti infantry unit.

- Add a Land Speeder with 2 Heavy Flamers. Cheap, mobile, anti infantry unit.

I would add a 10x Man Tac w/ Flamer, Heavy Bolter, in a Rhino and a Land Speeder with 2x Heavy Flamers.

Hey thank you for the feedback! Your suggestions make sense and are helpful so I will update my army list ASAP. However I was thinking about your suggestions for the extra points and I was wondering whether or not it'd be smart to take both a thunder fire and a vindicator because more blasts seems like what this army needs. Let me know what you think.

I have one question about my squads would it be okay to make one squad anti tank and the other anti infantry?
