Lord Morgrim Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I am new to reading all about the various chapters. Now I know Dark Angels wouldn't go near =][= but what about the Blood Angels? Any reason why they wouldn't work along side an Inquisitor?

Taranis Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Blood Angels would, in my opinion, work with all factions of the empire of humanity. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283904-would-the-blood-angels-work-with-the-inquisition/#findComment-3532920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentlemanloser Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Dark Angels work with the Inquisition. They're Battle Brothers!!! The Dangels like the Inquisition better than the do the Grey Knights!

RazorDaemon Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Dark Angels, fluff wise, may avoid things like Inquisition in order to insure the secrecy of half the Chapters betrayal. Rules wise, they're Allies of Convenience just as the other Space Marine Chapters, with only minor deviations. Other than Chapters with similar circumstances, there are just some Chapters that are picky as far as which parts of the Inquisition has their tolerance, or lack thereof. Some choose to fly low under the radar, others, like Black Templars and Space Wolves, border telling them to kiss their shiny ceramite culets (that would be the backside armor equivalent of the cod-piece). @Gentlemanloser - They're just Allies of Convenience, both Sisters and Grey Knights, according the current Allies Matrix. Which also doesn't show the Inquisition as it's own army.

Gentlemanloser Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 RD, your're missing the new Codex: Inquisition... It's Battle Brothers with the Dark Angels.

Gropemotron Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I remember reading online that the Inquisition is paranoid about the Blood Angels because of the existance of the Sanguinor http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Sanguinor. It says the source is from the Codex but I don't have that on hand to verify. How much does the Inquisition know about the Black Rage/Red Thirst anyway? I can't imagine them being too happy about Blood Angels turning basically one step away from Khornites, but I don't know if that's particularly common knowledge. Or do they just put up with it because of the Blood Angels track record. In game rules: I find it hard to find a way to incorporate the Inquisition into a Blood Angels list, as Inquisitors can't take jump packs. A seperate inquisition mob in a chimera is okay I guess, but if I was taking them as allies I'd want a way to get those Pychotroke grenades in assault with my Assault Squads. Death Company don't really need the boost, but I guess foot assault marines could take advantage.

librisrouge Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 99% of the time the Inquisition and Blood Angels would get along famously. The Sanguinor doesn't intervene very often and the Death Company is typically only deployed during largish engagements. Both can be easily explained away since zero follow up can be used against the Sanguinor (the BA doesn't even know that much about him) and the Death Company can be waved off as a specialist combat formation, so long as you keep the Inquisitor away from all the fancy prep and raving about Horus.

t4play Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I don't think the flesh tearers think they taste nice ;-) and would be very suspicious with any around checking up on them Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283904-would-the-blood-angels-work-with-the-inquisition/#findComment-3533200 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguine Eternal Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I experimented with a Xenos Inquisitor in my last game. Put him with 10 DC, and the chappy. Psychotroke grenades were awesome!I rolled re roll hits for the first squad that I assaulted, then was counter assaulted next turn and rolled for his unit to attack each other, which ended up killing 3 or 4 models. The dice were not in my favour for the majority of the game, but it was fun.

Memento Of Prospero Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Is it me or only battle brothers can join allied units?
