[Ideas welcome for starter army list (2000 pts)]

If I pick Knights Excelsior maybe it is better to use Protectors in stead of Vindictors? But then I would have less bodies. The mobility issue is something that I'll have to test. In my few games so far I didn't mind. But it could be better to have something fast as well.

I like the suggestion of using the Grand Hammers in 6. It's more of an all eggs in one basket kind of feeling but together with the Longstrikes they should delete almost any scary unit.

I picked Unleash Thy Hatred, but how would you play it? The Lord probably wont be around the Annihilators.

Is the list below possible? I put the Annihilators and Vindictors in Hunters of the Heartland and the rest of the army in Warlord. But the app tells me that one of the command traits must belong to the Knights Excelsior subfaction. I'm not sure what this means.

This is my first go at a competetive army list at 2000 pts. I've only played a few Stormcast games (1000 pts with Dominion models) so I'm not sure how solid this can be.
The biggest issue I see right now is that I'd want to let the annihilators fall down, but possibly also the longstrikes which is obviously not possible.

I haven't decided on artefacts and spells either so I could use some ideas for those as well.

Do I have to put the guys that fall down from the sky in the batallion as well to get the one drop deployment rule? I couldn't fit them all in.
