I've been mostly avoiding Primaris up until know, I'm heavily invested in regular space marines. But, the new Black Templars are cool and I want to do a BT force that is pure Pirmaris.

I have an indomitus box and some other Primaris bits, plus the new BT box. So I have -

Primaris Captain - (could be a bladeguard sergeant)
Primaris Lieutenant - (could also be a bladeguard sergeant)
Bladeguard Veterans x9 (bought two boxes of the regular kit)
Bladeguard Ancient
Primaris Chaplain
Judiciar
Eradicators x3
Assault Intercessors x15 (ten from Indomitus, 5 from the Fire Team box)
Outriders x3

10 Heavy intercessors
2 Primarus Dreadnoughts

Marshal
Emperors champion
2x Primarus Crusader Squads (20 guys total, I bought an extra set on eBay)

Primarus Repulsor executionar (I'm going to 3d print a different turret to use it as just a Repulsor)
Hammerfall Bunker

I also have a bunch of BT bits from the old accessories sprue, and am going to buy one or two of the new sprue so I will have lots of bits to spruce everything up.

I'm willing to buy a few extra things, but I cant stand the Inceptors or Agressors.

Any Idea what kind of 2000pt army I could make?

Black Templars are honestly pretty flexible, depending on what kind of army you want to build. Everything you own is very usable. Chaplains are a must though, no matter what direction you go in: in a 2,000 point army I'd probably take 2 (Grimaldus and one other). They really make the army work.

If you want to go all Primaris, I think the best way to go is a "black tide" style list similar to this or this. A solid core of Primaris Crusaders, Dreadnoughts (Redemptors are fantastic and make good use of the 5++ from Uphold), with some flavour thrown on top (Bladeguard, Eradicators, etc) will produce a solid force.

Obviously a bit different from what you have due to me not having anything from Indomitus. But I'm going theme so YMMV.

Space marines are good bread and buttir lists that has a low floor, meaning it is hard to do terrible with them. This is because the units, even when specialized are quite all around good. I do not know how high the roof is, but it seems to be respectable.

My only consern that I see in many lists is not having enough long raged support. 2 primaris dreadnought is a bit light, even with 10 heavy intersessors. Some more high damage high power long ranged weapon would be good.

The second thing most lists fail in is not planing secondaries. Space Marines usually take oath of moment and build to hold the midfield and get 15 points off that. But if you are planing on war on all fronts or others include it in your list building.

The models you hare are great, although I miss more ranged high power weapon.
