Fluff:
Once a knight of the empire, Josep was forced to leave his homeland after fleeing from a battle when he was supposed to have secured an ancient relic which is said to have the powers of most holy Sigmar bound inside it. When asked why he abandoned the relic by a rather inquisitive witch hunter, he told the noble that he believed Sigmar to be no more than a normal man, devoid of any divine powers. He then was forced into exile, a rather light punishment considering what he had done. Taking only his most trusted men he now is a lesser general for a powerful merchant prince. He was given a rather generously sized piece of land by his employer.
He has two daughters who are both well acquainted in the use of magic, his eldest daughter, Helena has studied the wind of Aqshy. His second daughter, Serena has focussed on the wind of Chamon. However recently Helena was taken hostage by a chaos warlord and Josep was forced to gather his men and a small force from the villages and towns surrounding his land including local guildsmen and the town watch. They ride forth to crush the vile mutant who has captured Helena. With his life long ally and friend Friedrich at his side, Josep is ready to ride forth and free his daughter from the scum who have emprisoned her.

The lists looks pretty good but it has one major flaw, there is nothing to base the army around id try and drop your captain and one of the heavy cav units to fit in some pikemen. just my advice.
I'm trying to steer away from pikemen for two main reasons:
1. IMO at 1000pts I'm not sure they'd make their points up
and
2. I don't have any. :P
