What do you think? It's essentially a 3 component army: there's a front AV 13 tank with a dangerous pie plate that can swallow any squad in the open whole and is also fairly deadly toward transports. Then you have a small squad guarding the home objective armed with a fairly decent range AP2 small blast plasma cannon, and finally a drop pod arriving on turn 1 bearing a small, but hard hitting cc-oriented unit (on charge, 7 power attacks from the squad + 5 power attacks from the captain) that can also deal with walkers and tanks thanks to the melta bomb and meltagun.

by taking the crusaders squad you limit yourself to only using Black templars chapter tactics. (I Play templars so im not dissing on them) try to trun that squad into a Tac Squad so you can be more flexible CT wise. If your running for a templars list you look pretty good but i would put them in a drop pod unless you sticvk a flamer in the unit because its almost certain that if your dopping them in that they will get assaulted and if you know they will be assaulted then there is no reason to spare your foes from good ol WOD hits
