You are already breaking
WYSIWYG with the "bolt pistols" so it shouldn't be a problem for you.
Might also look into Militarum Tempestus--their armor is suitably badass, and the Taurox rocks the Dredd vibe
IMO
Your suggestion of switching to Crusaders is quite useful and due to the points saving, I decided to also switch from a Razorback to a Chimera and grab some more men. I had a look at Tempestus as stand-ins and whilst the models might be suitable I don't think the rules fit as well.
Thanks for your recommendations though, that's allowed me to change quite a lot.
