I'll have a fuller look in a bit, but first thing I saw was that the company commander has the heirloom pistol which is LC only, other than that first glance looks good!

I like the new guard codex. I finally got around to doing my list, with my old dkok army, and it came out to a perfect 2k army!

Lr vanq tank with pask & another lr vanq, command squad with officer with chainsword & heirloom pistol, banner, vox, lascannon team, and meltagunner with carapace & camo, in taurox, 3 elites of 10 scions (dkok grenadier models) with flamers and grenade launcher, vox, chainsword & hotshot pistol, 2 units in taurox primes, last in valkyrie with lascannon, rocket pods, door gunners, 2 troops of vets with voxes, flamer in one, meltain other, lascannon team, grenadier (carapace armor), both in tauroxes, a basilisk, and 2 more lr vanqs!

Very pleased!
Thoughts?

I'm only really an infantry player, so I'll not comment on the tanks in the list as I'm far from being experienced enough with their use to offer sound advice on them.

Judging by the vox in every squad, it seems you'll be putting your CCS in the front line for orders. You've given them some extra protection in the form of carapace and camo cloaks, but with all of the voxes it looks like they're primarily there as a force multiplier, but you have no other source of orders for infantry, what would you think about putting them in a chimera instead of a Taurox? That way they're a little less squishy and more likely to influence things. Alternatively, with only 1 CCS, what about dropping the voxes? Or taking the Scion Command squad, as a back up in case something happens to the CCS

Or are you doing it just because the models come with it?

Yes, I can make it a chimera instead. (My 5 "tauroxes" are actually salamanders)...

Much nicer models! I like the choice much more than the Taurox model. Very envious of you fielding your DKoK, I have some but not assembled *is shamed* but with the chimera you'll be able to issue orders to your squads. Your tanks and basilisk look like they'll eat armour, so your choice for anti infantry weapons on your infantry works, though I'd consider giving the scions the melta instead of a flamer or gl and giving that to the vets instead, as the melta has better synergy with the hot shots (though plasma would be even better!) than the lasguns of the vets.

Aside from that you've got the Valk with a lascannon, which while opening it to having a chance of hurting tanks, it's not a great one, and you'd almost always be better forcing saves against infantry somewhere else.

I like your list and it looks like fun, if I could make one strategy suggestion (that you're free to ignore of course!), having a Taurox or two with augur arrays and breaking the 10 man squads of scions into 5 men squads could mean precision deepstriking into areas with high levels of enemy troops. You wouldn't even necessarily have to use it, as you could always deploy in the Tauroxes instead (though then 50points is effectively wasted) but it would certainly be enjoyable to DS next to some soon to be crispy critters, etc.
