Ppl are recommended weapons like Nords and Barnars because they give huge AR boosts and not many high end weapons have them. Famine is a nice weapon to use with Conviction, the ITD mod on Famine is pretty much useless since your using Conviction already, and it gives you no additional AR, but combined with Conviction's huge -defense (and resistances) it becomes pretty damn powerful, even more so than BOTD from my experience. I wanna get a Famine for my Conviction Zealot 
If you want my opinon though, I think Astreon's Iron Ward would work nicely for a Vengence Pally, it gives +4 Combat Skills, it can get up to 200% AR bonus, nice magic damage, and its got slow, giving you an edge over those fana using zealots, so your gonna have the speed advantage. You'll pretty much hit everything, while causing a nice chunk of elemental damage.
You won't do as much physical damage, but then again, the point of a Vegence build is to do elemental damage and break through your enemies resistances and defense.
