Greetings Marshals.
For the upcoming liberation of the planet I have formed a list of the assault force to attempt a breakthrough the northern sector on the front.
I will provide the list below for your approval. Sadly 2 units of death riders are unavailable to form the brigade proper so will have to form up in 2 battalions.
I will personally(inquisitor) "requisition" the engineers and a field officer from a valkrye to deploy where needed. I will attempt to seize an enemy officer for interrogation.
The command squads will deploy in the chimera to protect them from enemy fire, ready to disembark to help the troops once they reach enemy lines.
I will provide tanks from my personal retinue to provide fire support with an unyielding advance with demolisher tanks.
I eagerly await your response Marshals

Inquisitor Johnson Ordo hereticus

I reckon an astropath with nightshroud would be a good addition if you could find the points.

If i swap the inquisitors force sword, i could swap aradia for one. Think that would help?

Aradia is 40 points, TWO astropaths only 15 points EACH, if armed with laspistol. Since they are fairly useless at melee with a s4 staff without ap, laspistol is as good as any. So one astropath can protect your valkyrie or chimera or tank with nightshroud and the other can throw the offensive shot. Consdier you will probably get a couple of those shots to land -- for 15 points spent, you generate 4 or 5 mortal wounds on someone's eldar flyer or demon prince. Its VERY worth it.
So you really could get both a malstrom (wc7) and average of about 2 mortal wounds (remember it snipes!) to add to your inquisitor's ability to cast castigate (with another low warp charge spell, that also can be used to target an enemy character behind the lines). Someone's pesky aura that is causing everything to not work? Kill it (maybe over 2 turns, but kill it.)
There would even be 10 points leftover, perhaps enough to give a pair of command squad veterans grenade launchers (which gives them a punch at longer range for qutie cheap, in addition to melee buffs.)

I still don't understand why you feel a need to get the force sword downgraded?

For some reason i thought astropaths were 46 points

46 points are the generic primaris psykers .. they are like aradia but can pick any two spells in addition to smite, although only 1 cast and 1 deny a round.
For the price, you just can't beat a wing of astropaths, and even the psyker primaris are a bit cheap compared to things like marine librarians.

I like the 2nd one seems fluffy as well, Aradia is always a good take imo.
