You do not require that battlegroup for the tank company; in fact it is mostly wasted unless you are taking the company command squad and an infantry-bearing auxiliary.

If you just want a russ formation and an artillery formation, just take those as individual detachments.

For an armoured company with some real-world feel the battlegroup with a chimera-borne co-com and the assault company is exactly how tanks are fielded(with infantry support in IFVs).

As far as Russ loadouts: build the rest of your army first and then look for the gaps, your russes should then fill those gaps.

So far my entire army would be only russes (and the one obligitory Tech Priest).

Oh, if that's the case, you'll be a bit challenged without any infantry to grab objectives.

Vehicles can grab objectives you know

Vehicles with av 10-11 back armor don't tend to stick for too long if they move forward at 6" per turn.

It will last until you meet first melta-drop army or Sisters of Battle with their scoutmoving/outflanking cover-ignoring Dominion squads. Then you will start to learn how to bubble-wrap

or dark angels with 2+ rerollable cover who are in mellee turn 2

And if they will take enough grav-guns there will be little need for melee

If I wanted infantry I'd just be using a normal CAD instead of this shenanigan.

OK, fair enough then. Follow your theme, whereever it may lead. It's not like you can't add more dudes later...
