Any comments? It's not that I can change much, since the only things I have that are not in the army are: • Asarnil, • Truthsayer •Dark emissary •16 dwarves with LA, shield, GW and xbow, • 4 more cursed companions, • some other characters.
Interesting list, here goes for comments on Characters...
Belladonna - I have no experience with her, so cannot comment, but I'm not sure she's worth a Wizard Lord and Asarnil in 2k pts...
Paymaster - 6+ Ward is a waste. Save the points
Wizard - Lv.1 is a waste, and as you have a spare Rare, upgrade to Truthsayer.
Vespero - awfully expensive for Duellists, just take Pistol Duellists instead? But if you don't have Pistol Duellists, then just field them as 2nd CCW Duellists with a Champ to keep the points down.
(Heavy Cav w/Barding & FC - why aren't you taking Voland - he's worth the Hero upgrade more than Vespero?)
Beorg - he's great, totally worth taking. Keep him in a good-sized block, but you'll need a 2nd unit of Pistol Duellists to screen Frenzy.
Golfag - I don't field him. He's huge and all, but super expensive, and still just an Ogre. For the points, I'd generally take a couple of Handgun Maneaters. But as you don't have alternatives, keep him - he's better than Richter overall, faster & harder-hitting.
Richter - I don't like him. He's a single, expensive point sink of Undead without any of the VC support stuff. I'd suggest to swap for the Dwarves, but your Dwarves are kitchen-sinky with GW & Xbow instead of HA&S.
(cannon - if you're taking Asarnil & Truthsayer, it's OK to lose this)

Vespero 125 Not worth it, just use them as ordinary duelist like JohnHwangDW said.

Like you said there's not much you can do without more models but i'd be tempted to just have ordinary ogre bulls and take a Dark Emissary/Truthsayer instead of the level 1 by dropping the cannon.
Though i would quite like to see the combined effects of Bear's Anger, Lucrezzia's Kiss and the Potion of Pavona on Beorg
