Lore-friendly armies for each province

[Chewie]

If each province had their own army stack, 20 units unlimited funds, lore-friendly.

That would be great .

Reikland

Karl Franz
Battle Wizard
6 Halberds
4 Handguns
2 Greatswords
2 Reiksguard
2 Great Cannons
2 Pistoliers

Pretty much how all my armies are built

Stirland-General of the Empire (representing either the count of the province, Alberich Haupt-Anderssen, or one of his trusted commanders)
-Light Wizard or Witch Hunter (since they usually face the undead)
-Sadly, the empire cannot bring archers, which are one of Stirland's biggest strenghts (their elite force, the Styr patrol, has some of the best in the whole Empire). Not having that, spearmen, swordsmen, crossbows and some Halbardiers should do the job.
-Empire Knights would be the core of the cavalry force, with maybe one or two squadrons of Knights of the Blazing Sun, sent by their Grand Master to face the Vampire Counts' ethereal creatures.
-As for artillery, one or two Great Cannons sent from the forges of Nuln and maybe a Luminarc of Hysh.

After reading thru some stuff online (mostly lexicanum), I came up with these builds for Empire armies. Some cases I balanced between playability with something I feel is lore-friendly. The legendary lords I try to assign better units, and for some knightly orders I represented them as Reiksguard instead of empire knights. I didn't play the tabletop so welcome any suggestions. There's 16 army lists so I'll break it down by region:

I feel there might be too many hellstorm rockets/volley guns compared to cannons/mortars? Or less halberdiers and more spearmen?

All swordsmen/spearmen have shields.

I didn't know who to assign some of the offices to so I took a best guess on that part.
