The list is pretty well rounded with the chimeras there to burn up infantry, the strike squads are fairly well equipped for most things that come its way, the psyrifle dreads are anti everything, and corteaz would jump into a Chimera and the Librarian I may put in either the other chimera, the stormraven, or one of the rhinos. Not really sure yet. I also wanted to make sure that the 2 flamers and a storm bolter are legal on a chimera. It looked like it in the codex and i wanted to use it so I could shoot the chimera up and light up the enemies for the dreads in case of nightfighting.

But overall, how is this list looking? I think it's fairly solid, but more input would never hurt, especially since I never played the army before.

I tried out this list against some Dark Angels with IG allies. Overall, the list performed fairly well, save for the fact that I could do nearly nothing to AV 14. Partly due to subpar rolling, a Landraider was able to take multiple rounds of 12 S8 shots and the Vindicare. The Stormbolters didn't come up, but I'm still not sure if it's legal.

My friend ran a 50 man blob that was joined by Azael, so a 50 man blob of 4++ saves. He also threw in a Psyker to give them FNP, once my chimeras got over, the multiple flamers were able to do enough damage.

What I may change is dropping all the incinerators and the Stormraven (too expensive, I understand the durability, but eh) and maybe one group of Acolytes and instead run a chimera filled with Jokaero. Multiple Las Cannon shots a turn may be able to help out a bit in dealing with Av 14. So overall, a pretty good list, but it needs some tweaking.

You could take an army of almost pure jakiro. Be able to choose between an army of meltas, las cannons and heavy flames sounds pretty broken

Right now that is the Grey Knights problem. Most people solve it by using a vindicare or 2 and the 4d6 armor pen. I've also seen other Grey Knights pump enough rending psycannons into a AV14 to bring it down but this seems illogical due to the improbability and how much firepower that will require, that and clearly that isn't the tactic you are going for here. I would suggest a few melta's whether they be inside the acolyte squads or whether you give the storm raven a multi-melta. I would suggest the second option as this also deal s with the anti flyer situation at the same time.

Why would you ever take the TL Heavy Bolters on the Stormraven? You can have TL Multi-Melta for free instead.

Also don't both with Halberds on Strike Squads, too expensive for only one attack each. They're great for Purifiers and Terminators though. Don't give Daemonhammers to you Justicars either, if you get Perils of the Warp they die, and if you get into combat they'll be challenged so will either have to accept and probably die before getting to attack or refuse and not be able to attack anyway. The Justicar is probably the only member of a Strike Squad worth giving a Halberd to so he can do well in challenges.
