You say your heroes are 325, but 2 Engineers are only 130..
I am missing something?
Anyway seeing your list you have room for 305 points.

For that you "should" have a Captain as BSB at that points level and as the Lord choice I would opt for an Arch Lector

i was thinking arch lector and yea sorry about the points bit i had debated 3 priests to help out.

now im just worried about the lack of magic? i was thinking of fitting in a wiz with lore of shadow.

Cheers

you could drop the xbows for archer detachments of 5 (instead of 10), that would give you some room for a wizard.
3 priests is really overkill and eats alot of your character allowance dropping your model count on troops..
