Downloading right now, so I don't know what changes there are, if any.

...

Looks like the changes are similar to the new FAQs for the paper codexes, to bring in line with the new psychic phase.

DCA has 2 power swords - don't know if that's new?

...

Ministorum priest is there.
Psyker has access to brb powers

Vehicles have not been given psychic pilot.

...

Generally a minor update along the same lines as the grey knights FAQ.

Yah, then unfortunately no huge differences :(

Do they share GK's ability to cast Sanctic more reliably?

So we still have 3 fire point chimeras?

And i assume the powers for the psychic pilots will be sanctuary again right?

Yeah, looks like inquisitors will peril on any double using sanctic. Need to watch out for this when allying with grey knights; choose your HQs carefully! Makes the grey knights coteaz a bit better!

Its disappointing. The promise that the ibooks would be updated to have the most current rules was wonderful in theory, but in practice it isn't working out all that well.

The vast majority of ibooks are still not updated and we have no idea when/if they ever will. The Apocalypse ibook, for example, still has the rules references to the OLD Tyranid codex (Scything Talons still granting re-rolls to hit, etc)…let alone being updated for 7th edition.

The fact that they've now updated the Inquisition codex and the Chimera rules don't match the ones from the Astra Militarum codex is just sad. And there are other things that still reference back to the old 6th edition rules as well. For example, in the 'war hymns' rule (for the Ministorum Priest), the 'Smash' rule described is still the 6th edition version (halve the model's attacks instead of just making 1 smash attack).

All the ibooks should have been updated by now for 7th edition. GW should have had them prepared and ready to go day one along with the new rulebook release and if they didn't have them ready, then they shouldn't have released a new edition of rules IMHO. Now that they've stepped into the digital age and made a promise that these books will always be updated with the most current information, they need to stand by that promise and make it happen.

The fact is, we've had a round of FAQs out for a while now and these have not been represented in the vast majority of the ibooks…so that promise is not being upheld.

Silly Yakface, those are 6th Edition codexes. You need to buy the 7th Edition codexes for the 7th Edition rules.

So far, the AM, Inquisition and Orks are the only ones updated with 7th ed rules.
I had emailed GW customer service a while back and was told updates should be here within a fortnight... I think it's about 3/4 weeks since that email lol.

Think they missed an opportunity for radical inquisitors ie granting them Malefic Daemonology powers

Didn't see anything obvious for SOB. Too bad they didn't make the Apoc formations normal formations.

That's going to be the real problem with the iBook updates as opposed to the FAQs,

no real way to see what's changed

The whole Inquisition book was a missed opprotunity.

I mean I have a dozen inquisitors and I dunno how many henchmen and even I couldn't be bothered to pick it up.

is it even available outside of a download? i really wanted to run a group of inquisitors and henchmen and have the perfect models, but haven't been able to get it as a book, and hearing all this about the downloads i don't think i will get the inquisition (or any other downloads) until it comes out in a book

Its only download for now. with no plans on a hard copy

You could just print the thing and bind it your self (i did)

You however can just run C:GK so long as you take coteaz then it is nearly the same thing (minus the relics)

or run them as c:GK unbouned.
