Any comments at all? Even how you would play it?

Ok here's my advice:

- Personally I'd remove the command squad, and replace it with 2 more 5 man bike squads, give them flamers or gravguns. Some people swear by command squads though, so its your call.

-Consider combi-weapons on your bikes, those 3 extra grav guns shots are normally worth their points

- I'd take out the LotD. If you do want to take them, then change their loadout. Why flamers? They are slow, and already ignore cover with all their guns. A HB and plasmagun would be better imo. Also the sergeant ca't have a plasma gun.

- Tac squads are a drain on points. you already have 4-6 scoring units of bikes. I'd just take a cheap unit of scouts to cover the requirement.

With the points left over, you could consider getting a another level for the librarian (invisibility is a powerful tool if you can get it), a squad of Black Knights (depending on how much other stuff you dropped), or possibly an aegis with comms-relay (potentially useful to give you cover on the first turn, and will also let you get your reserves in more reliably.
