-R.W Com. Squad these are black knights which are 2 points cheaper then a black knights squad. I would max this unit out.
Nade' launcher
Apoth

R.W Black Knights (3x2) I would take this as one squad and combat squad it when needed. If you play a game with kill points it gives you a harder point for them to get.
Nade' launcher

Raven Wing (5x2) why only 5?? if you take 6 you can combat squad as needed
-Attack Bike

Raven wing (6) Need some kind of special weapons imho

Nephlim Fighter the fliers suck but I take them too just for fluffiness. gear it towards vehicles or infantry if going for infantry take the darkshroud.
Mega bolter

Tactical Squad (10) Just for gaks and giggles??? what I would do with them is drop the pod to get more bikes and use them to hold the back field
Drop Pod

Scout Squad (7) Here is where I would cut to find the points for upgrades. Snipers are great but they wont hold up to much if they get assaulted by anything halfway decent in CC.
snipers

Deathstprm Drop pods (FW 40k approved ) 3 I have no idea how these work or the points costs so I cant comment but they sound fun.Deathstorm Missile launcher x5 (each)

The rw command squad are black knights that have plasma talons which receive NO benefit from the standard of devastation

Right but the biker squads you keep within 6 inches do. When playing a biker army you need as many shots as possible.
