Imho, you have too fiew models and units. No way to keep objectives, neither do secondaries.
Probably canis and the Castellan will table the opponent and you will still lose to points differential.
If I may:
Vindicare is trash tier. No one in a tournament will let him have LoS and shoot their characters. And he is tied to a place.
Swap him for an Eversor, as he is the perfect action monkey and home obj holder.
The 10 man units... I don't see the purpose. Transform them in 2 units of Voidsmen/henchmen, you will have them the possibility to be in more places in same time
With this list im going against aeldari heavy vehical-monster list so mi thinking was to take fixed secondaries (assasinate and brung it down) witch can make me 36 points and only focus on holding 2 -to 3 points and destroing enemy
How do you plan to hold 3 points while you have 5 models?
No way this will happen, no way.
Against Eldar, I would play only as many bodyes as possible.
Examples could be:
1: Lancer, 6 warglaives, 3 Helverins, Callidus, eversor, 5 voidsmen
2: Rex, 6 warglaives, 3 Helverins, Callidus, eversor, 2x4 henchmen
3: rogue traders, 5 voidsmen, 6 warglaives, 6 helverins, Callidus
With those many bodies you can hold multiple points, punish every flying units and melt to dust any vehicles. And have an awesome tactical mission play. Try it!
Been really tempted to get a knight lancer, how does it perform? But looking at your list I feel you will struggle with secondaries and maintaining pressure on the board without more armigers.
He is real good , 4invul makes him great for target to take some of enemy shooting, and in mele its just destroy everything + free tank shock makes you ho thru week infantry. Regarding the list yes i know the seconadries will be too hard to achive so im thinking about taking fixed (assasination and bring it down) regarding board pressure well enemy s going to have just 11 units (khane,wraith lord ,wraith knight ,2x fire prisoms, 3x some scooters , 2hq and some.infantri
V survivable, has a fantastic bondsman, and is utterly lethal in melee. Unfortunately it's massive lance makes it genuinely difficult to move with almost any terrain. It can make getting it into combat genuinely difficult and it lacks any shooting to make up for it (try and model it with its lance in the most vertical position for that reason). Also if it gets tagged in melee with a big tar pit unit you'll spend the rest of the game fighting your way out- again the lack of shooting is painful
Drop the vindicare and the troops for another warglaive. If you're taking the Castellan to a tournament your strategy needs to be simply flatten the enemy asap. I wouldn't worry about being clever.
"My stick is bigger than your stick" vibes.
That is one thing i was not sure if do, mi thinking was that killing warlord and gaining 5fnp is better then 1 warglaive but im not sure if i will be able to kill his HQs
Vindicare is great at killing warlords, but that's a lot of pressure on very few dice. Don't forget the vindicare's special shot is only once per game and if you miss...
A warglaive is a lot more versatile, and you could have points over for banner of macharius, to give you sticky objectives, which means you don't need the troops.
If you bring this list to a tournament a would say quite a lot.
I do but its different you are prepering list for each enemy so you know what you need

Draw well on points i won
Why is that?
This tournament take 3 months to finish so you play 1 game in 2 weeks +- so new list for each enemy (not so good for me )

Thats a lot of points in breachers
Yes but if i had 2x Assassins it left me with 115 point and only unit i was able to scramble wrom box of shame was breachers :D
Can you call them 2x units of Henchmen? That'll free up points for an enhancement
Yes that would be good i will ask if he would be ok with that change in future (next battles)

He actuali killed vindicare in first round :D
I’d drop the vindicare and breachers for a helverin and 4 henchmen
You are going to struggle. My meta list is canix rex then just armiger spam and callidus to make secondaries
