This is probably the worst list I've ever seen

There is only 1 viable Imperial Knight - Crusader.
Vanguard upgrades are awful.
Datasmith without dakKastelans? Heck, no dakKastelans? They are our best unit...
Cognis stubbers on Onagers are bad. No Neutron Onager?
Dominus is awful and you should never take him unless he adds at least 2 CP or lets you take more heavy support

What would you suggest at 1500?

Cawl
2x vanilla vanguard
Datasmith
Icarus Onager
Neutron onager
2 Dakkastelans

Crusader RFBC, stormspear

For example

I believe I had both Onager as the same in the last lost cause I was trying to make the list fit 1500 with an Il.

So no Robots at 1500?

I understand the don't take the Datasmith without Kastelans but I'd love to hear your reasoning for the rest.
Personally I'm taking 2 Dominus and was thinking about a Warden as well

Well I took a warden cause it made the list exactly 1500
