I'm starting a new army (the Horned Satyrs) using White Scars chapter tactics and would like some critique of the below list.

The primary method of deployment will be to place the Inquisitorial Henchmen in the Razorback and Coteaz (given Scouts with Liber Hersius), both squads with Plasma Guns, a combat squad (with Combi Melta and Multi Melta), Khan and both Storm Talons in Outflank reserve. (6 units)

On the board will be placed the Ordo Xenos Inquisitor, 3 henchmen, both Stalkers and a combat squad (with 2 flamers). (5 units) The Inquisitor and 3 henchmen will form a unit hiding behind cover (or behind the tanks if necessary) manning the comms relay, whilst the tanks wil take cover behind the aegis. The bikes will either hide or use their scout move to flame other peoples units in cover for early kills.

the Inquistor on the board has Psychic Communion (for +1/-1 to reserve rolls) and Coteaz has 3 Divination rolls, taking Prescience and some other things.

Why a coms relay and Psy communion? What exactly do you need to get to come in from reserves so badly in this list?

Most of the list is in reserve. Its not always about getting them on, often its about keeping them off.
