Ravenguard Army List Advice for a Newbie

This is my army list for my 2nd ever game.
I’m playing 11e with my friend and I got kinda destroyed in the first game.

I had a lot of trouble with my positioning, had almost no way to kill vehicles, and remembering abilities and stratagems in my first game.

I would love any advice for list building or strategies to use with this army, or pieces I’m missing out on.

The idea is to push forward with my Infiltrators to screen out deep strike, infiltrate close to objectives for early obj control.

My Intercessors will be my battle line establishing lanes of fire and pressure to allow me to move my melee units up.

My Assault Intercessors and JPI Asault will either support my battle line so they can heroic intervene or charge after everyone shoots. And with 2 OC the JPI should help to control objectives.

My eradicatord give me some good anti tank.
My rievers have grav shires to deep strike and contest objectives and enemy OC.

My Eliminators will Target leaders and shoot in scoot from the back line.

My inceptors are a good firing unit I can also deep strike with.

I gave my lone VV squad inferno pistols to provide a little extra anti tank.
And I gave Kayvan’s 10man VV squad Storm Shields for the InvSv. I plan to Deep Strike with them.

Last I have Aethon Shaan and I plan to keep him on the board so I can Into Darkness or Heroic Intervene.
