Thanks for posting an update and new version Steve. Looks good!

- Changed the Defiler Assault Pack to a formation of 5 for 400pts
The most important piece of feedback I have is regarding Defilers. After playng a number of games against and one with Iron Warriors IMHO they don't need to be weaker, less powerful in CC, less good at shooting or more expensive. All it appeared needed was that the size of the formation increase to better legitimise these excellent units as being 'Core'.
The Black Legion etc pay 275 for 4 Defilers (68.75pts per model) and this new formation of 5 for 400pts moves the unit cost above that.
I recommend that the Defiler pack is moved up from 5 models to 6 models, and stays at the same current cost of 400pts. This will make the unit cost 66.66, marginally less than other lists, but make them a great Core choice that costs and looks like one.

- Added the Stalker upgrade to the Armoured Assault Company, Artillery Company and the Daemonic Artillery
- Added the Warsmith Upgrade to the Dreadnought Assault Pack for 100pts
Those look good at first glance but do these two changes mean that IW can field both AA and a Supreme Commander without infantry? ie as another completely Armoured Vehicle List that doesn't actually need INF to function?
If so, that would be an entirely new strength to this army and most all-AV lists have commensurate weaknesses.

- Increased the cost of the Ordinatus Medrengard to 625pts
Sounds fair. I posted options to make it better for more points or less good for less in the thread discussing this, but a small price bump like that is by far the simplest.
