Battle Brothers and Greyfax

[Aliase]

I usually take Greyfax with my sisters.   It is nice to have a psyker.   But I was looking closer at the new FAQ and I am wondering if Battle Brothers stops me from doing this now.  She does not have any key word in common with the sisters other than Imperium which is called out as prohibited in the FAQ.   Am I reading this right?  Thanks all.

Auxiliary support detachment is probably the only smart option for greyfax, as she is only there for the psychic powers and denies.

 

Make a choice between having an auxiliary or a vanguard detachment(jokaeros acolytes and such). First is cheaper with -1 cp and the other is lot more expensive with +1 cp.

Thanks Ice Warrior.  I had forgotten about the -1 CP option to still take her.

You can also take Greyfax with two other Inquisitors in a Supreme Command. Means it costs a little more than Greyfax alone but gives you some pretty cool options. Plus instead of losing a command point you gain one. I take Greyfax, Eisenhorn, and Corteaz. Gives you five psychic powers a turn, five denies a turn, all Ordos but Specialist, and some cool and interesting rules.

You can also put her in a spearhead detachment with some of the elite options from the index. Their not great. But it is another way to do it. The Battle Brothers rule is just trying to prevent soup lists and mixing stuff in the same detachment.

Greyfax +24 pts of acolytes is doable. The acolytes can be place to deny deepstrike, and generally are forgotten about since the opponent will not want to waste shots on them.

Excellent find, Vanguard detachment with 3 sets of acolytes. Maybe 1x 1x and 3x teams with the 3 team following our lord inquisitor. Can't have her running about without invulnerable saves.

Take Greyfax, Coteaz and Karamazov in a Supreme Command. Karamazov can be super best friends with any penitent engines and discuss fragile robot topics.

I have taken Greyfax and then three pairs of Acolytes, forming a Vanguard Detachment (3 squads of 2 models each). Normally those Squads would be very vulnerable but I gave them plasma guns and put all the Acolytes into a Repressor. Being of the same Ordo as Greyfax they were very useful with all their rerolls as there are quite a few players in my area which play Chaos and / or Psykers.
