Yes. For a 10-man squad there are 3 separate wargear options, replacing 2 storm bolters with 2 psycannons for every 5 models in the unit is one, replacing a storm bolter with a psycannon and an ancient's banner is another.
You can check this on Battle Forge. Your unit consists of a Paragon, a Paladin Ancient and 8 Paladins for 450 points (with a total of 5 psycannons). Lets hope that when GW refreshes the range you can actually build all the loadouts with the parts in the box...

How about we hope that when that day arrives that we have options. And that they at least match what current players have built....
I'd rather see people "inconvenienced" by having to source a few bitz than not be able to run the units I've built.

Yes.
How well it does though? That'll depend upon how good you are at running it & what you face.
I'd recommend finding something cheap to fill those last 65pts & hold objectives/do actions. I'm partial to Spindle Drones (Legends, Unaligned) myself. And they keep the robot theme as well.
And you should ask yourself why the Assault Cannon dreads. If it's just for shooty firepower? Consider Hellverns with autocannons instead.

Now unless you play the game in some sort of open/no missions format against similary build list , by which I mean stuff like "all terminators army" "chaos but it is nothing, but cultists" etc you will find it really hard to take objectives, hold them and what is just as important (maybe more considering the damage output of GK) stoping your opponents from scoring/taking objectives.
Remember this is an edition where being in the open=dead. But also you have to deal with other armies infiltrators and scouts being on you or on objectives from turn 1. You are going to find that even less optimised lists could give you a lot of trouble, bordering on very unfun games, where it feels like you are doing nothing and your opponent keeps just poping VP all the time.
Now this is your army and your money, and maybe you already bought it too. But for the future at least thinking about having the army have some infantry (instead of the bad dreadnoughts) would be a good idea.
If you have to kill, then kill in the best manner. If you slaughter, then slaughter in the best manner. Let one of you sharpen his knife so his animal feels no pain.

It's a lot of Theory-Hammer right now...
But I always ask what others think before I lose my mind and start buying dumb models... for the most part.
(I bought Sly Marbo without knowing what the difference between Forgeworld and Finecast was... now I ask about things).
