So heres a list I ran in a doubles game that did pretty well, Im pretty sure Im short on points but I dont have my codex on me for exact points.
HQ's 215
CCS
Creed
regimental standard
Lascannon
MoO
OotF

Leman russ Vanquisher-pask/lascannon/sponsons MM 235
Leman russ vanquisher-lascannon/sponsons PC 175

Troops
Platoon 1
PCS 50
x2 flame
autocannon

x2 PIS 120
x2 autocannons

x2 PIS 120
x2autocannons

Platoon 2 is exactly the same as platoon 1 (290pts)

Vets 155
x2 plasma guns
chimera

Vendetta 170

Scions 160
x5 guys
x2 plasma guns

scions 150
x5 guys
x2 melta guns

Aegis line with quad gun. 100

Alright added points up and have 60 left..

The idea is all the x2PIS will be blobbed in 20man squads or technically 18 man squads cuz the HWT count as 1 model.

I tested the army out in a doubles game and I used creed as my warlord and he got the outflank trait and I got 2 units to outflank so I decided to have the HQ squad of russes and the vets chimera outflank.

The game was going very well for me except the fact that my opponents warlord trait was -1 to my reserves which really messed me up as turn 2 only my russes and chimera vets came on. Chimera and pask got knocked out after the russes blew up 2 serpents with their split fire order( )

Then turn 3 only the melta scion squad came on.

Anyone?

Kell seems rather worthless, he's only giving out Ld 8 now instead of Creed's 10. Master of the Ordnance is still as inaccurate as ever. I wouldn't ever take a Tank Command without putting Pask in it, he's just too fething awesome not to. He gives one Vanq straight twin-linked and both have preferred enemy. Seems light on anti-tank for my taste, I'd make the valk a vendetta instead.

Kell (similar to Wyrdvane Psykers) doesn't really have too much of a purpose. You could replace him and the Valkyrie with an Officer of the Fleet (since they are very useful now), a Master of Ordnance and a squad of 3 Sabre Defense Platforms in your platoon.

I have to agree that Kell doesnt seem to bring you much. I really think that unless you need the capacity on the Valk that a vendetta would be a lot more useful for hunting big targets.

I do like Jaxor's idea of the officer of the fleet. Especially if you are really in need of your reserves coming in he can help out with that for sure!

My bad it was supposed to be pask, im not sure why I just put tank commander lol. But I did correct it to say pask.

Originally I had kell in there for the purposes of fluff with creed but the more I look at it I think a vet with the regimental standard is better, and it saves points to.

The officer of the fleet does seem like a great choice because now he can either delay my opponents reserves or buff mine depending on what I need.

Also I will go back over points and see where Im at exactly and then I will see what I can add and put into the list, I do like the idea of bringing in the vendetta over the valk.

Maybe some priests instead of kell to make the blobs fearless?

Alright list is updated with points!

Swapped kell for a vet with the standard.

Added in the OotF.

Switched the Valk to a vendetta.

Now I have 60points left. Should I Add a primaris psyker? Or maybe add 2 priests in?

Thanks for the help and sorry about the delay in getting the points up.

Any new comments on updated list and where to use remaining points?

I would recommend the primaris, prescience can do wonders.

Done deal I think having him in there could really allow the MoO or a blob to really do some damage.
