So with casual lists you have a lot of flexibility, you don't need the cutting edge of optimization and there's a lot of room to try out new strategies.

That said: Castigators are garbage. Utter and complete garbage. From a purely FINANCIAL standpoint, you should take retributors or even immolators instead.

Yes from a casual you take what you like.

But to improve the list as stated castigators suck

Dominions need to be a one they need a strat to be good and you can only use it on one Squad a turn

Celestians are fine as a one of cheap bodyguard but they are really not great in multiples

And it's difficult to evaluate order of krieg because I can't see what it is mechanically

Don’t dominions work well with their special bolt guns that are rapid fire 2?

Vs 1W targets they are no different to normal storm bolters. Which are twice as effective than normal bolters but normal bolters are not that good and your paying 8pts a model for the privilege. Those same points could easily buy you a lot more normal sisters and improve your durability.

VS 2W targets your optimised but almost all of these are high armour save and with no AP those shots are not that effective.

E.G. four D2 storm bolters into intercessors or Battle sisters is 1.77 dead intercessors or sisters
