I am new to Astra Militarum (yep forcing myself to get used to not calling them IG) i'm trying to build some good solid Astra Militarum lists for take on all comers. Played for the first time yesterday (thrusday) using a variety of lists (3 games, 3 diff lists) finishing W:1, L:2. My first game had a list very similar to the one you will see below and i won that one, extremely pleased with how everything performed except when the commisar executed my psyker. And then lost when a close game using a larger blob of guard, and a third game using 12 leman russes unbound. So i took my first list which i won with and edited it a bit to plug any holes...now I would like for you all to take a look and tell me what you think and specially if you can spot any glaring weaknesses with it. Playing competitively but not to attend any tournaments.

Total Roster Cost: 2000
Note: I combine squads the infantry platoon and stick them behind the defense line for 2+ cover (Get back in the fight after), Primaris psyker joining that squad and casting divination on it. Vendettas to take care of any air nuisances, and veterans to be mobile objective takers/tank hunters. All the flamers is to deal with any potential hordes and to discourage assaults.
