Huh? I was under the impression that no other inquisitor could do that (they can take Henchmen but not as troops).

You are right. Coteaz only lets you take more than one unit as troops. Stop saying things if you don't actually know what you're saying people.
Who else lets you take Henchmen as troops? I'm separated from my codex at the moment, and won't be able to look until Monday (I'm stupid and left it at work...).
Or wait, am I misunderstanding what you mean and you are actually agreeing with me and saying "Stop saying things if you don't actually know what you're saying people" to the other guy?

P. 90 of the GK codex (henchman entry, top of the page):
"For each Inquisitor in your army, you may also include a unit of 3-12 henchmen, chosen in any combination from those shown. This unit does not use up a force organisation slot"
Only Coteaz makes them troops (see his entry, p. 86)
I would also note that even if they did take up a FOC slot, they are listed under the "Elites" section of the army list.

I'm not even joking when I say my codex says they are troops with an Inquisitor. It is an online codex, so it may be falsified.

Considering everyone else with the paper codex from GW and the FAQs disagrees with you, I'd say your "codex" may be wrong. They weren't even troop choices in the old Daemonhunters codex.
In the future, I'd humbly recommend being a little less abrasive and providing evidence of your position when someone disagrees with you.

It's very telling that he edited all his posts to remove all the stupid stuff he said.
Anyway, as a long time Sisters player, Sisters have it the worst in this situation.
I don't have my BA codex with me but a Libby at 100 and 2X3 DC for 120
220 I think.

You can only have one unit of Death Company.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."
This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

The cheapest you can possibly do guard is 210.
How is it 210? I see CCS + Vet Squad + Vet Squad = 190

I did say some rather stupid stuff. I have a text only version of the GK codex that I downloaded online, and apparently it is not correct.

Yeah I made that mistake earlier in the thread, but the cheapest BA would be a Libby 100, 3x DC 60 and 5 x scouts 75

So, to correct the GK lowest-point list:
Coteaz
3xWarriors
3xWarriors
Total: 124pts.
Now, that's only seven models, and the Troops have a 5+ save...so that list won't last one turn.
