Instead of Paladins, take Terminators. They are significantly cheaper with the same number of wounds and save, plus having Objective Secured.
With the point savings, give your NDKs some guns. They are VEHICLES, and great platforms for larger firepower that we seriously lack.
Instead of Heavy weapons, give the Purifiers Incinerators. They won't take a BS penalty for moving and shooting. They will be moving a lot bc of their short range Purifying Flame (and also because they like melee).
If you can find the points for the GMDK to take the 3++ Servant of the Throne gift, do that.

wuestenfux's advice is decent, as there is a pretty big debate about the points efficiency of Strikes vs the durability of Termies. But sometimes you just really want to play Terminators!
I think your second list is definitely better, but a Paladin Ancient isn't actually that great. Apothecaries give a 6+++ and also have a strat to raise a model, which is amazing on Terminators (so long as the unit isn't wiped).
Now that you have a Troop, you can also fit into a Patrol Detachment if you don't want to take 3 Elites.
