This is an illegal list, for an Infantry Squad, you'll need a Platoon Command Squad (30) and atleast two infantry Squads (50 each) = 130 points for cheapest infantry platoon. You could use Veterans, at 70 Points per squad as a troop choice instead.
Also, Vox Casters aren't worth it in this point bracet, imo, but I often do pass my tests for orders.

You need a PCS for the Heavy weapons squad too. Your best bet is to run 2 vet squads. If your worried about Heavys put one in the HQ and one in each the vets squads. Also I wouldn't recommend mixing weapons:

Best to have them all be the same so you aren't wasting shots due to range or strength.

I am just curious, why are you taking Strakken in a 500 point game? I would suggest removing him and using the points to buy a chimera or 2, but if you really want to use him, happy hunting. Also, are your vets naked? If they are they would be well served having one squad with plasma, and the other with meltas. I am not sure about 1 sentential, they are fragile as is and 1 will take a missile to the face. to make room for the special weapons in the vet squad maybe ditch the walker. That is just my food for thought, good luck
