To me, it reads more like a smoked stout. Whatever you call it, I'd think it would be pretty smoky, roasty and full-bodied. I would also think that it would need to condition for a few months to round out the edges.
 
What kind of smoked malt? Peat in particular is super smoky and not pleasant smoke. 5# could hurt you.
 
Increase the chocolate, lower or eliminate the black and Carafa, and halve the crystal.

What smoked malt? If it is Peat, all you need is about 0.5 lbs (or less). If it is one of the others, you should be good.
 
It's smoked with cherrywood

Thanks for the input in the other grains

If i left as is would it be considered more of a stout

Most of my special grains are already mixed up
