Is the rumour true that they will be combining all of the inquisition under one team?

Yep. They will now be known as Team Jacob and will have the ability to use the Space Wolves as allies. Blood Angels are out, though.

I dont understand........

It would make sense to have all Ordo factions integrated into one codex.
But Inquisition is not very popular in 40k;
I know that there are some DH and WH players out there and they swear that their armies are the best.

Our armies ARE the best - it's just that the dice don't seem to agree...

Back on track - there was a persistant rumour about a combined =][= codex but right now, word on the street is that if anything the Inquisition is to be downplayed.

Right now it looks as though there will be a Codex: Grey Knights (not Daemonhunters, GK) late this year or early next.

Emperor willing, the Sisters will get a new, dedicated Codex too. (I really doubt that the Deathwatch will get a Codex, but then, there are already about seven million Marine Codices so, y'know, yeah...)

Personally, I hope there is not a combined =][= codex, purely because cramming three armies into one book must surely water each down.

It's a joke on "Team Jacob" vs "Team Edward" from Twilight. Jacob is a werewolf and Edward is a vampire. SW = werewolf-ish, BA = vampires.

Right now rumors are pointing to Codex: Grey Knights and Codex: Sisters of Battle, with C: GK seemingly planned for this year or early 2011.

Read up on the actual rumors (and not wishlisting taken as rumors) and hope we get some information once Spearhead is released. Probably at Gamesday Baltimore or UK.

And there was much rejoicing...

I'm hoping for a combined dex (which pisses Manchu off, but he's got a thing for sisters anyway).

If GW can do it well, it'll be fantastic. I can't really picture a seperate GK or SoB dex mainly becuase there really wouldn't be much to go on, even with the introduction of new units. A combined Inq Dex would be about the size of the current IG codex which is a nice solid size that I can comfortably sink my teeth into.

This is what I thought. Lol.
DH/WH don't need a codex; theirs is good enough.

I recently took part in a three-way match, 1k GK+1k Sisters Vs. 2k Guard.

We got stomped pretty good (not that it wasn't a heroic fight). Now, part of that is that it was two noobs Vs a 20-year veteran, but our Codices are starting to show their age, it seems. Particularly GK.

Sisters have a still-solid core in the basic Battle sister, but vehicles and 'freakshow' units could do with a tinker-with.

I also heard a rumour that Faith Points would be eliminated and Acts of Faith would work like IG orders - can I get a 'Hell Yeah!'?

That's the sort of thing I picture in a new, Codex: SoB. Updated Repentia, Penitent Engines etc - maybe a new vehicle, and making the special rules work with the current ruleset, rather than despite it...

It wouldn't be a huge book - but perhaps we could at least get back all the fluff text that was in the 2e 'dex? That can't be too much to ask

Time will tell.

I am really glad they are getting new codexs (if you believe the rumours) but I really hope they don't drop the inq side of army. Give them a backseat sure, but they are what gives the army its dark, grim feel which is the reason I would love to play them ( I can't as they are hard to play but next codex I am going to be grabbing the new codex as soon as it turns up). I don't think GK are really the same unless you can add in inquisitors, assasins and all that other sneaky stuff.

For anyone who's still an unbeliever, the only way it could be clearer after this will be when GW officially announces Codex: Grey Knights.

As a bonus, he says a combined codex isn't going to happen

Hmmm, power armour, robes, broken sword... Sounds like Cypher! The "sword through the book" seems a little flimsy. I don't what is so special about DA though, why do they need a new codex? I really hope that bit speaks to GK or Inq instead of DA and I'm wrong.

He's not talking about Cypher or the Dark Angels. DPA had to correct people who assumed he meant Dark Angels multiple times in the same thread by saying he wasn't being literal. 'Broken sword' referrers to the GK symbol of a sword with a book imposed over it. Hence the figurative 'broken', or debruised. Plus the fact he had hinted at GK previously. As for robes, well, look at Justicars, Brother-Captains and Grand Masters. DPA likes being vague.

So don't worry, he does explicitly speak of Grey Knights

Only if your sisters are hot.

Apologies for necro but it was begging to be done.

That post was bad, and you should feel bad.

Kids today. No sense of humor.

Also, I dedicate that zinger to Frazzled.

I dunno, I lol'd. I think this thread is juuuuust about locked.

You mean we are left with only half a dozen open threads on that topic? How cruel

You called?

I'm also hoping for a dedicated GK codex, along with a whole bunch of new models. Honestly, I think if I saw plastic Gray Knight Terminators I'd lose it right then and there.

A new WH codex would be great, the current one has vehicles that are much more expensive that the same ones in other Imperial forces.

LOL, made my day.

If I saw Plastic sisters I'd probably bust a nut!

Anyway, I think SoB need more vehicle options.the immolator and exorcist are cool, but they don't really match up to the vehicle power of other armies. They need land raiders with Twin Exorcist missiles.

Maybe some kind of tech-priest/ obliterator would be cool too.

The Vehicles the Sisters have are enough, but they do need tinkering with. they are, as already mentioned, too expensive compared to similar.

Exorcists are cool, but optional frag missiles would be a welcome addition.

Immolators need something... They should really be better than the Hellhound - simply because flamers are the Sisters' schtick. Bumping them up one AV would also make a big difference, because they seem a little squishy, considering template range.
