This leaves me with fourteen points to spend (maybe misericordias can be a good investment).
It's a very fast and aggressive list with a good rate of fire and nasty stats when it reaches hand to hand combat.

As I say before, comments are welcome!
Thanks in advance for the attention

No comments?
I have decided to take the meltagun on the Gallant, don't know if a good idea
So, here's the final list, I would really appreciate some feedback:

Not sure why you'd take a single Sniper Rifle on a CC, I would just ditch it.

Rest of the list looks pretty good, I love the Gallant, but have you considered Landstrider instead of Ion Bulwark?

Yes , I have consider it (and it's a valuable option indeed), but I think that the 3+ can be a more flexible choice: if you take landstrider you really have to charge on turn one, or you'll risk a an early death. I know that Gallants are made for charge, but, in my experience, on the first turn of game you will likely get only screens or cheap units (if your opponent have deployed well)

You can pick what you want as far as warlord traits / relics for the Gallant when you play it, if you're taking it with the stratagems. So use your Company Commander as your warlord, and use the stratagems to get it a trait and relic. Then pick based on your enemy. I played Dark Eldar with mine last night, used Sainted Ion as relic for 2+ sv and Ion Bulwark since he had lots of dark lances, and very few big things I'd need a paragon gauntlet to kill.

You're going to be very CP starved with this list though, the Gallant can eat CP almost as fast as a Castellan. 2 CP to use Full Tilt, 3 CP to fight twice, 1 CP to Death Grip, and 2 CP for Rotate Ion Shields and a re-roll next turn to survive the return fire... and you've already spent 8 CP on it. I'd try to work the Custodes into a battalion somehow, or take a second Guard battalion instead of the Custodes.
