New Inquisitor


Recommended Posts

Welcome to the Inquisition! Warbands tend to be better stabby rather than shooty but you can build them to be quite flexible. Special weapons of course go a long way and you can get bolter acolytes quite cheap. Servitors can pack some more punch but are a bit limited in options: heavy bolter, multi-melta and plasma cannons.

 

I'd build them to a couple of roles: longer support with some Servitors supported by some cheaper bodies or a mobile response unit of bolters and special weapons :)

Some ideas to start with:

 

- 3 Servitors w heavy weapons to taste, plus 2 jokaero, shooting out the top of chimera packing 2x psybolt ammo (plus a hellrifle-armed Inquisitor to babysit the servitors) gives you a mobile pillbox bristling w weapons for well under 200 pts.

 

- 10-12 acolytes w storm bolters gives you 20-24 shots at an effective range of 30" (since they can move and shoot at full effectiveness). Swap one for a jokaero and hope for the Rending upgrade! Costs just over 100 pts.

 

- Daemonhosts can unleash some brutal shooting...33% of the time. But they're cheap for ~100 pts.

 

- Go full air force: Valkryie dedicated transports for all, plus a trio of Valkryies as fast attack if you have Imperial Armour 2, all armed with multiple rocket pods. Large Blasts away!

 

- Add a psyker to any warband and get a guaranteed primaris Psychic Shriek to enhance any shooting.

 

- If your meta allows, field multiple Inquisitorial detachments and spam bolter-armed acolytes. They're cheap as chips, and quantity has a quality of its own.

My advice is to choose what you like the look of. My inq warband has a priest, 2 acolytes a deathcultist and a psyker in a valkyrie. its not an effective warband, and they will never win a comp, but they are only 59pts, grab objectives well and are fun to use. With the inquisitor the unit comes to 260pts.

 

Plus when they do something cool its so much more awesome. With lucky rolls, my deathcultist cut down a hive tyrant who was all set to beat down my inq in a challenge once. In another game, my inq one shotted skarbrand (thanks to the Grimoire of True Names and his priest). Epic stuff.
