Well, I've read through your post, and some of it seems okay. I don't really know a lot about Malal, but I still think I can have a bit of constructive input.

This seems a little bit rubbish, to put it simply. It's only useful against one model in one army, and takes up a psychic power use for the turn. Even if it does work, then the sorceror still isn't going to be running most of the time.

This also seems a bit rubbish, 50 points to ignore one weapon that's only available to one model in one army? Perhaps change it to something more like the fantasy hatred rules, allowing you to re-roll rolls to hit during the first round of combat, and possibly in all rounds against chaos troops.

The wording on this is a little bit confusing. Is this one use only? Do you roll every time a daemon unit is summoned? If so, this is quite harsh (even more so against actual daemon armies). I would either have:
Something similar, perhaps making daemon units re-roll their reserves roll.
OR
Something like this; at the end of each movement phase, any daemon model within 12" takes a S3 hit, with no invulnerable saves.

These are a bit powerful, especially due to fleet of foot. I understand that this is supposed to be a raiding army, but the extra fast attack accounts for that. Also, perhaps these should be made into Elites.

These seem alright, perhaps a little bit underpriced. Only by a few points, if that. Still not so sure about the jetbikes, seeing as the army has less acess to terminators, but still has plenty of jetbikes that are unique in the imperium?
Well that's it, sorry if I come off as a little bit harsh, but I'm just saying what I think could do with changing.
