I play Imperial Fists and recently converted myself a returned Rogal Dorn to act as my Guilliman. However I don't really want to justify march him up the board alone as his area of buffs is impressive, but small. So what sort of crazy procession shall I make for my 'Guilliman' out of my Primaris company?

I really just have a bunch of ideas in my head and no logical way of arranging them so here are the units I'm thinking of bringing and maybe you lovely people here on DakkaDakka can point me in a good direction. So here's what I'm considering:
Primaris Apothecary - Able to restore wounds and has a decent pistol.
Primaris Ancient - Leadership buff and allowing a model to attack again before death is neat (plus I love a good banner).
Primaris Aggressors - Good short range dakka and high strength in close combat to keep up with 'Guilliman'.
Primaris Rievers - Available in much greater numbers, but lower strength and AP. I am so far preferring the Aggressors, but some mathematician may come along and correct on that one.
Primaris Hellblasters - Shooting that again can keep up with the big man, would sit on the back end of the 6" bubble to provide close range fire support while constantly overcharging. I do have Hellblasters in my back line already but hey, they're just that good.

So, thoughts?

I love walking Hellblasters along with my HQ but it doesn't really take a Primarch to buff them from "good" to "awesome". A regular Captain will do the job.

Boltstorm aggressors seem promising with their weight of fire, lots of dice to reroll.

Definitely an Apothocary.

Guillman cannot be healed by an Apothecary, he is a Monster not Infantry.

I am aware, he was to restore wounds to the retinue.
