bc99 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hello all, I just picked up the newest WD to get a look at the GK army. While reading through the article I read some quotes that surprised me, basically, the GK codex is home to the Inquisition, and something along the lines that if the Inquisition gets caught up in war, the codex to use is the Grey Knights. So, are the Inquisition entries complete lists, or just allies/choices for a GK army? Do I have to choose GK forces if I want to use an Inquisition force? No more SOB/Indoc IG? I've got a force of Inquisition that I like to game with. Nothing huge, but definitely enough to field an army. Thanks all for clarification, I'll probably end up picking up the codex some time anyway, just concerned my Inquisition army has gone the way of allies/troop choices.

Iron Lord Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 The only way to take Inquisition troops, is with Inquisitor Coteaz. Otherwise, the Henchmen squads are Elites choices that take up no Elites slots, and need an Inquisitor per squad. There's a lot of variety in the Henchmen though- you can have power-armoured people with bolters, or carapace armoured people with hotshot lasguns, and many more.

If you play an Inquisition army, then you to go pickup your new codex. It's title is Codex: Grey Knights, and within it all will be revealed. If you've been posing Witch Hunters, then you could keep playing with that for another 6 months or so, but will ultimately have to use C:GK anyway, so you might as well get started with that now.

bc99 Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 Wow, great quick responses. I'll have to stop by the shop to check things out. Maybe we need to change the forum title to: Ordos Inquisition (but only if you take Coteaz)! As a side comment, you hint that I can use Witch Hunters for about another 6 months. Does that mean a separate SOB codex is coming out at that time? Thanks again for the quick responses.

Valerian :) If a new SoB codex is coming out, then they'd use that. If it's not, then Witch Hunters codex is still valid. Either way, I fail to see why a Witch Hunters force would use C:GK.

Valerian :huh: If a new SoB codex is coming out, then they'd use that. If it's not, then Witch Hunters codex is still valid. Either way, I fail to see why a Witch Hunters force would use C:GK. Because when the SoB come out, they will be associated with the Ecclesiarchy, not the Inquisition. The Daemon Hunters, Witch Hunters, and Alien Hunters are all represented in Codex: Grey Knights, so if he wants to play an Inquisition army, he might as well start using it. Also, I did tell him that the Witch Hunters codex is still valid, but only for about another 6 months or so.

The Ordo Hereticus utilizes the Sisters, so why should we believe that they aren't going to be represented in the codex? After all, the focus of C:GK is GKs, but the Inquisition still gets represented.

Yep, it's gone without counts as. Inquisitors are HQ choices that have elite no-slot henchmen squad, one per inquisitor. Coteaz allow you to field inquisition themed army. I'll go offtopic, but it should be codex:inquisition, with some grey knights in the first place, not the other way. Also, SoB usually works with imperial church, not inquisition. DW and GK should have their choices within, along with some generic henchmen using power armor and bolters to represent SoB.
