There it is. If I added everything correctly I still have 16 points to play with. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I actually would use Sisters as the Base list so you can get Exorcists instead of the Dreadnaughts for heavies.

I don't like Grey Knight Terminators they don't score and are expensive. Recommend dropping them to make points to flesh out your Grey Knights squads to 8-10 and give them Psycannons possibly.

I like my Inquisitor with 2 Mystics for the anti deepstrike. if your gonna keep him on foot give him a psycannon and 3 heavy bolter servitors, otherwise mounting in a land raider is an option abeit expensive.

5 GK is a bit small if your gonna sit out in the open with out a land raider go with 8-10 and maybe give them psy cannons for enhanced range and anti daemons.

I don't like av12 dreadnaughts and they move a little slow to effectively use multimeltas, use Sisters as the base list and get 3 Exorcists. If you feel there are too expensive to buy use Whirlwind conversions.

More feedback please? I am not going with the Exorcists. I know they are very strong but for this army I'm going to stick with the Dreads. I am open to suggestions/critiques regarding the weapons on the Dreads! (This is more of an IRL money issue than a gaming perfection issue).

Also, should I replace one of the PAGK squads with a Stormtrooper squad and then beef up the other squad? The idea is that the 2 Grey Knight troop choices will play backfield defending objectives. The terminators play midfield able to support the front with 36" range Psycannons x 3, while staying out of range of counter attack via shrouding. Also the terminators are close enough to respond to any flanking or deep striking forces by counter assaulting to support the aforementioned troop choices guarding the back field.

The Immolators, Rhinos and Dreads push forward towards the enemy.

Having 7 armored targets to choose from should provide enough saturation to let them close the range and start unleashing fury.

Thoughts? Strategy advice?

Get rid of the smoke launchers. Upgrade the Brother captains to Grand Masters (145pts), they're a lot better. I not sure if you're allowed this but think about a "Land Raider Ares", they're a mix between a Land Raider Crusader/Redeemer and a Vindicator, I'm currently working on a Grey Knight for because I think Grey Knights need more heavy firepower. Although to fit it in (300pts) you would need to rid of a Grey Knight unit and a Sisters of Battle squad.
