Just an idea from a fluff perspective, if you want your army to be Exorcists, see if your opponent will let you field IA character Captain Silas Alberec. He's got a Master Crafted thunder hammer which autowounds demons and psykers; FnP; stubborn; rerolls failed pinning checks and Deny's the Witch on a 4+. Sounds OK for 155pts.

Oh, and that's too few troop choices at 2k points.

I'd be tempted to ditch the LR and the BA libbie, swapping them for the ASM JPs and pairing them with a Reclusiarch with JP. Then you could look to another SM tac squad and a rhino/razorback or two. The VV are nice but are so expensive for what they do I'd rather just take more tooled up ASM.
As for the Aegis if you can get the quadgun instead that should work better than the LC.
The generally accepted wisdom with stormtalons is you need to take two (or three) or none. One is just going to vapourise - especially if you face new Tau or CronAir or Vendettas or Hel(p)drakes.
The BA devs might need to look at load out too as the PC and LC have quite different ranges and quite different optimal targets, so early on the PC may sit there polishing his targeting lens with no target in range as the LC fire at enemy tanks etc.

Just my twopence worth.
