I like the look of the first list as it is fast and hard hitting. I also like the multiple fast, multi-wound units that could potentially be healed up by the Priest.

 

My only query is the presence of the Judiciar. Is he just there to make sure the Intercessor Sergeants get to swing their hammers if the squad gets charged?

Cheers for the response, any changes you'd recommend? Initially that was the plan but he also really helps as a deterant for combat units trying to charge my Sanguinary guard if the centre of the board gets congested.
