So yeah exactly what it says in the title.
Bear in mind I may not collect this sort of army. I'm still deciding between this, necrons and DE
Any and all comments are noted and I am up for changes because I have no models yet.
But please make any changes remain around the theme of inquisitors and Henchmen please.  Thank you

There has to be some feedback for this list surely.

well, I'd change some crusaders to more DCA, maybe change some TL LC's to TL AC or hvy bolters with psyammo (and have one squad drop a guy so coteaz can fit in)
maybe drop the strike for more henchmen?

I have half a mind to kill you, and the other half agrees |

Instead of strike squad you could have:
Razorback, 3 henchmen acolytes, psy ammo.
Razorback, 3 henchmen acolytes, psy ammo.
....and 16 spare points. Dropping a crusader to fit in coteaz as BoT suggested gives you 31 spare points so you can upgrade 3 of the acolytes to meltagunners.
It's usual to have more DCA, but I've heard strange good things about crusader heavy units. I haven't tried them.

I don't think that assault cannons with psy ammo on thr razors is a good idea because they still wouldn't be as good as lascannons at taking out tanks. If i keep the lascannons I could put in some acolytes with flamers in a flamerback and use it as a burn it to the ground type unit.
Ok so how about

Actually, a psycannon is better than lascannon for putting the hurt on vehicles. 4 shots @ S7 stands a good chance of penning AV11 and rending shots means that you can even threaten AV14. Also, the psycannon pulls double duty as an anti-infantry gun, giving you the added flexibility that is crucial at low level point games.

I have no models yet so changing to assault cannons is fine if I need to. But it meant I have to cut a henchman from somewhere to make the points

well, use acolyte meltaguns for the raider, and assault cannons should have little trouble on the MC's
and:
TL hvy bolters with psyammo > TL hvy flamers with psyflame ammo
have 1-2 TL LC, and rest TL AC/hvy bolter with psyammo
EDIT: Here, I made this quickly:
coteaz - 100
warband - 4x crusaders, 2x DCA, razor with TL AC, psyammo - 175
warband - 4x crusaders, 2x DCA, razor with TL AC, psyammo - 175
warband - 3x acolytes, 1x meltagun, razor with TL LC - 104
warband - 3x acolytes, 1x meltagun, razor with TL LC - 104
warband - 3x acolytes, razor with TL LC - 92 (coteaz hides here  )

i think you will really struggle against the Land Raider with Lascannons, Meltaguns should be better or multi meltas. A vindicare would do well against both considering he can remove invulnerable saves and has around a o.25 chance of killing a Land Raider in a turn and a twin linked lascannon has around a o.o5 chance of killing a land raider.
Change your flamers for meltaguns would be a simple solution.

I like that one Ridealgh, but I'd personally put Coteaz in one of the forward razorbacks rather than the backfield TL-lascannon razorback, as I think he's better on the offence than the defence: his hammer and assault hawk and 2+ save is surprisingly sweet and effective.
