What about Ground combat tech? Should they have access to the Heavy (or even super-heavy) ground vehicles?
I want to add a bit to the vehicles later.

Looks fine, though I wonder why Serf garrison on ships is so small..?
Although, Landing craft does not have shuttle component. There is a size limit of craft being able to land on the planet and if I remember right, it is 500 tons.
Though, I'll need to check this out in the latest patch.

I see no assault marines. I suppose they are part of that regular battle brother?

Space Marine Devastator - Missile Perhaps one of the most out of line units. These should be in the companies as well, but I couldn't convince myself to have even one of these in each company.

Here is a funny part - Chapter Master has less genetic augmentations than a Captain (who has basic, improved, and advanced genetic improvements.)
Also, it is a bit weird that captain and chapter master has the more exotic mountain, deep valley and jungle fighting equipment, but no one else does.
It might be sensible to standardize these among the forces - either remove the excessive fighting capability on commanders, or give these to all the space marines.

Right, I assume Rhino is a medium vehicle, and Land Raider is a heavy one. Or, at least, Rhino has light armor, and LR has medium or even heavy.
Land speeder raises questions though - it has the same armor as the Land Raider, not to mention that it has 2 weapon types. I think it might be better to have 2 variants of land speeder, but their basis as light vehicle hull:
Most of them should have the crew served anti-infantry weapon, but 1 of them could be "land speeder targeter", which has the forward fire director.
Dreadnought probably would be a good advocate for "Super Heavy Crew Served weapons" (at least, if these existed in the game),
or at least a sub variant of power armor allowing to wield 2 weapon types.
Either way, I'm just going to point out that it is missing the key capabilities that other vehicles have - extreme temperature and gravity.
Last thing to consider would be predator MBTs, and Whirlwind artillery units.
I suppose Titans can also be considered if the Super Heavy Ground Vehicle tech becomes available.
One last note on Land Raider - I think it should have a heavy crew served weapons and autocannon (medium or even heavy).
The more specialized variants could have a dedicated Anti vehicle weapon or another Heavy Crew-Served weapon.
