My thoughts on this.

The list needs less/no Chimeras in order to keep the theme and to make it stand out compared to other lists. From a fluff point of view can you honestly imagine an IG Commander, or SC, having fought their way up the chain of command opting to go to war in a Chimera instead of a Crassus?!

I would even go so far as to remove all Chimera and Leman Russ options from the list to keep the emphasis on heavy tanks. I'd keep Salamanders as it makes sense that they'd be scouts and keep Centaurs for specialised operations.
Anyway, I'm enjoying the thread and seeing where this list goes.

Btw, I'm not a search bot just a very long time lurker with an interest in the Heavy Mech list.
