and dont let him utilize the shrine as a flank charger either ive seen that in favorable situations it is a monster and will do damage i think its higher than str 4, but it does have a few attacks and one of the stomps

I think it's Str 5...

Shrines can't thunderstomp and they don't deal impact hits, and have a movement of 4 as their downsides. I'd say they are not under or overcosted, barring their silly combo with Chosen

A doomwheel can be really effective against it though. The way i see it, even if you fail your lasers, you still get impact hits and stuff. Remember that the shrine is not unbreakable(i think it's not even stubborn) so you can run it down.

But really, all that hassle for 150ish points. I'd rather ram my Doomwheel into Chaos Warrriors or Hellcannons.

hellcannons yes, warriors....

only if they are already engaged and only if they are not in horde. otherwise the doomwheel isn't going to really make a difference when paired up against chaos warriors. (especially tzeench)

By Warriors I meant the commonly seen 18-24 Halberd toting Khorne chaps. Between the impacts and grinds, a good flank contact can really mop them up.
