Just one question, how does it work if I want the Scions to have their Stormtrooper thingy (exploding 6's)? Do I have to take them in their own detatchment?

Yes, to use the tempestus doctrines they have to be in their own detachment.

Also a brigade isn't the most efficient way to run guard, try a double battalion.

Why is double battalion better?

It allows you to have more flexibility, you don't have to fill all the slots in a battalion so you don't have to include stuff just because you have to.

Alright well I feel like this army is strong as it is so a brigade would be fine in this case no?

If that's how you want to run it that's fine. Splitting it up would give you the option to have a Scion detachment though.

In terms of strength there's a couple of units that might struggle to be useful. The sentinels aren't that great with multilasers, they just aren't good weapons. Autocannons or lascannons would be better. Hellhounds can be a little fragile but if you can keep them hidden until they get close enough they could work. The rest looks good though.
