Basic thing set up is 1 hero, 500 points of core, no magic items or mounts over 50 points
My hero is an Empire Warrior priest with heavy armour, additional hand weapon and shield
then due to territory I've captured i can now take 800 points of core, which consists of
20 halberdiers with shields and full command
detachment of 10 free company
detachment of 10 archers
20 swordsmen with full command
detachment of 10 free company
detachment of 10 archers
15 crossbowmen with marksman
12 flagellants with prophet of doom

So... what sort of campaign is it? Can you change your army at any time between games?

You can change your army yes, but you're limited by territories you hold.

Halberdiers aren't worth it. Try 30 spearmen if you have to points, or 20 more swordsmen. Halberdiers just don't give you enough benefits.
Also, the flaggelants are only good for two things, tarpiting and flank harassment. If you intestinal to tarpit, 12 isn't enough, they die in droves, and if you intend to flank, then 2 units of 10 is your best bet, can you take specials/rares?

slight change to the list
it's now
20 halberdiers with shields and command
detatchments
10 crossbowmen
10 free company
20 swordsmen with command
detatchments
10 crossbowmen
10 free company
10 huntsmen with marksman
17 flagellants
and on the note of Halberdiers I've found Strength 4 worth it. and i want to have limited swordsmen anyway.

More flaggelents, yeah! But why shields? For that 6 points a pics, You get swordsmen, with ws4 and a constant parry save, as opposed to only for shooting and magic.

You only get the parry ward in C2C also it's a fluff thing, Halberds are common weapons hence why i use them.

My full empire list has halberdiers and crossbowmen as the core of the army. Detachments of swordsmen and archers.

Why have I been slapped. Still, at least you have swordsmen detachments. I STILL suggest Swordsmen with Spearmen detachments, but fine. What are the detachments for your crossbowmen? Do spearmen to help out against charges.
