Hi Dakka, I'm still getting use to the new edition so I'm going to post the list I'm working on for Saturday, and wanted your opinion on it.

Commissars are bad now. Take something else. Anything else. They FORCE you to reroll failed morale now, and essentially are a force divider.
Until they FAQ them again, I highly suggest anything else in your list.

NO! I just got done painting up my commissars, and they look good! I...aww man...

Any recommendations as to what would be a good replacement? More Sniper Teams? Two MMO?

Use your mental fortitude psycher ability

Alright, I replaced the commissars with a Master of Ordinates, and an Astropath. Also, swapped the sniper rifles on the SWS for grenade launcher. Never had much luck with snipers.

I'm a little fuzzy on how Heirlooms work, are they free/cost the same as the original gear it replaces?

I plan on also using Grand Strategist for my Warlord Trait.

And my army uses the Steel Legion Regimental Doctrine. (For fluff reasons)

If you care less about fluff my solution has been to make infantry detachment valhallan.
