These will make you much more competitive in objective games as you now have more objective scoring potential as well as something that will contest opposing objectives very well. If the Penitent Engines don't reach the points needed for these, I'd probably drop the Rhino upgrades that you mentioned as well.

Hope this is useful.

HQ:
Uriah Jacobus
Great HQ Choose

Elite:
Ecclesiarchy Priest: Eviscerator, Laspistol, Melta Bombs
For 90 points you can put in a 5 man squad of Repentia though I understand why you did it[/i]

Battle Conclave: 2x Crusaders, 6x Deathcult Assassins
+ Rhino: Dozer Blade, Stormbolter, Hunter-Killer Missle, Extra Armor
(Starts with Uriah and Priest)
I would move the Hunter Killer to one of the troops rhinos since they will have a better shot at shooting it than this rhino

Fast Attack:
4x Dominion Squad: 2x Meltagun
+ Dominion Superior: Power Sword, Combi-Melta
+ Immolator: TL MultiMelta, Stormbolter, Extra Armor

Heavy Support:
Exorcist: Stormbolter, Extra Amor
No need to put a SB on this thing its the launcher or nothing, you might want to add a Spot light to it though if you have a lot of Crons in your meta

3x Penitent Engines
Love these guys, You'll need to keep them covered with rhinos and tanks till they get where they are going

Troops:
9x Battle Sister Squad: 2x Meltagun
+ Sister Superior: Power Sword, Combi-Melta
+ Rhino: Storm Bolter, Extra Armor

9x Battle Sister Squad: 2x Meltagun
+ Sister Superior: Power Sword, Combi-Melta
+ Rhino: Storm Bolter, Extra Armor

I would look into Heavy flamer Melta combos you see to me lacking on horde control and at 1500 i think you will see more infantry than vehicles.

Total: 1500pt

Some of the rhino upgrades (especially on the battle conclave) are there to eat up some points and I don't expect them to have too much use. Other than that, thoughts?

Thanks!

That is still up for debate

jms40k wrote:If I drop one penitent and the priest I can fit Celestine in with some room to spare, that's an acceptable trade off I'd assume?

Also, are sisters w/ Simulacrums a good idea for the dominion squads?

Do you have a celestine model or one you could convert to do it?

I don't have most of these models yet so there is definite wiggle room, I just happen to have 3x penitents and 1 exorcist on loan at the moment so am trying to keep some combination of them in my list An exorcist is a pretty pricey model, but celestine vs a priest isn't so bad.
