So heres my quick 2500 list using the Stone Gauntlet rite of war.

Tried to keep it a little fluffy, all characters being equiped for duels etc, and also based some of it off the new box that was announced.
Tell me if theres any gaping holes in my list, or if I'm gonna be wiped out quick by anything.
My main opponent is emperors children if that helps,

Be as brutal as you want/can.

Drop the Power Swords on the Apothecaries, they exist to keep your dudes alive rather than kill the enemy.
The Mortis is a bit useless with Autocannons as while it looks cool they aren't going to do much if any damage to any Aircraft. Consider going with Lascannons, Kheres Assault Cannons, or even Multimeltas.
You've also gone way hard into Troops and haven't left yourself much in the way of Heavy Support or Elite units. I would only use one Tactical Squad of 10 men considering you already have the two Breachers and the Warders. Use those points to grab yourself some firepower or CQC units that can do some heavy-hitting.

So this is my adjusted list so far, I've got 255 left to spend and Im not sure what to use it on. More firepower? Another close combat unit?
