Gibious Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 To anyone who hasnt noticed, I am harvesting all the minds in this forum into a pool of knowledge. Which hopefully can serve as an Ageis of knowledge to all of the brave who want to fight along side the Deamon Hunters. Also to those who havent yet noticed the pattern next week is the elite Inquisitor. What I would like to clarify now rather than have it clog up the origional post. Can an Elite Inquisitor take a transport choice? Thankyou, -Gib- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184080-elite-inquisitors-in-rhinos/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 I believe the inquisitor can take a transport if he has a retinue. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184080-elite-inquisitors-in-rhinos/#findComment-2176076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
silversmith82 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Yes he can, this confused me for awhile as the entry is under the Lord. However, it states the retinue rules for both the Lord and the regular Inquisitor. Still, our Rhinos and Chimeras are junk compared to their Astartes/Guard counterparts.

Polaris Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Note: He can also take a Land Raider Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184080-elite-inquisitors-in-rhinos/#findComment-2176116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
silversmith82 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Yeah he can but be aware that a LR chosen in this way does NOT get potm. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184080-elite-inquisitors-in-rhinos/#findComment-2176239 Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewm9 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Yeah he can but be aware that a LR chosen in this way does NOT get potm. It depends. Is he a WH Inquisitor or a DH Inquisitor? WH get Machine Spirit according to the FAQ. If its a DH, they don't for whatever reason.

f.desrochers Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Can an Elite Inquisitor take a transport choice? You'll likely get one of two schools of thought for a reply. Option 1: Yes, he can so long as he has a retinue, the requirement for choosing the transport. By this of course, we mean a retinue of actual models (read: 1-6). Option 2: Yes, he can so long as he has a retinue, the requirement for choosing the transport. The retinue option is listed as 0-6 henchmen, so a "0" model retinue means a lone Inquisitor can take a Rhino. Personally, I follow option 1 logic. Regardless of RAW, the player that claims a "0" model retinue constitutes a retinue deserves the slap upside the head. Is this broken? For a Rhino? No. But look at what other 250-ish point model they can choose? The answer isn't can he take a Rhino, it's "what constitues the retinue" required for a transport. ;francois Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184080-elite-inquisitors-in-rhinos/#findComment-2177634 Share on other sites More sharing options...
silversmith82 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Yeah he can but be aware that a LR chosen in this way does NOT get potm. It depends. Is he a WH Inquisitor or a DH Inquisitor? WH get Machine Spirit according to the FAQ. If its a DH, they don't for whatever reason. IMO they made the DH Inquisitors not get a Land Raider with potm because it'd be way too broken for tournaments. Basically the transport rule gives the DH access to another 3 Land Raiders for a measly +20 pts when using elite inquisitors. Yeah we can do a massive 4-7 LR spam but the dedicated ones will have to be basically static firebases. Although 7 Land Raiders is just not practical even in games where the points would work. I have heard of the 4 LR army in 2,000 pts though with the dedicated LR having an elite Inquisitor with 2 mystics inside and just blasting anything that deep strikes in.
