This is my first effort in putting a list together, I’m not trying to be super competitive, but rather just trying to make a list I feel might work, to some point anyway... Are there any glaring issues I’ve created or things I should swap? In an ideal world, I can still use the Commissar, Marshal and Command Squad, as I already have those models. Cheers everyone!

Hail

If you like you can give relics to your characters. I like grand strategist and korov Aquila for cp farming but ya can give the field commander the conquest sword to make him really killy just depend on how you want to use them.
You can also give your sergeants a bolter or hot shot lasguns and chainsword fir only 1 point each abr the hot shot lasguns can also be used in melee with dkok orders. Commisars are almost useless with kreig but if you can turn him into a mounted officer you can give your cav orders and make them really bad ass.

I hope this helps

Thanks a lot for the feedback! I think having a mounted officer might not only be great now, but for later too, so I’ll jiggle the list around again and just paint him as an officer when I get him relics may be a good idea too seeing as I have a few points left over, are they in the Astra Militarum Codex? Another question, do you reckon it would be possible to fit in a Leman Russ in at this point level? Thanks!

No problems
Relics are a free upgrade. Only 1 per army of spend a cp for another but yes they are in the Astra mil codex. Or use battlescribe as it had them in there.
Most likely I have 3 in 750 points sorry no 500 list yet

I’ll give battlescribe a look right away then, cheers! Any advice on how I should expand in the future? Earthshakers maybe? I think I might have to make a few more kids ts though, and see what takes my fancy...

Tbh I've only got 1k dkok but in the games I've had my 3 tanks have won it for me. Try for a brigade detachment for lots of cp. Combat engineers are amazing so look into them and if you use the grenadairs stratagem that is alot of acid grenades a turn. Its an expensive hobby so budget and pace yourself which also gices you tike to test the units yiu have to see whst works for you. Maybe look at allies. I can use my spaces wolves as an allied detachment. Watch battle reports on YouTube for ideas.

If you use view in battlescribe it shows the stats of the units and it can create a printable PDF which is great thing to bring to games. You can also copy the list to clipboard which makes posting them much faster.
Everyone plays differently so tactics from one person may not suit your style so advice is not law so take what suits you and leave the rest

But most importantally have fun its what its all about.
