I'm saying that the book might include Storm Troopers, but the concept of "Inquisitorial" Storm Troopers (ie. a specific standing force of Strom Troopers that are part of/work for the Inquisition) won't be there.

well you were saying they would NOT be in there, if you would like to change that to they might be in there, but under a different name, go for it.

to be clear, what I am saying, is that there WILL be inquisitorial stormtroopers in the new dex, and that this is almost a guarantee.

they will basically just be IG stormtroopers, I doubt there will be much if any rules changes.

weather they are called INQ stormtroopers, or just stormtroopers, im not sure, and it doesnt matter.

But I am sure they will be in this new dex.

thats a 54 mm model. Not the 28 mm we're holding out for

Im really interested, how do I not need an E-reader?
I mean I have a Nook, but it is very tiny

Get a program that reads ePub and Mobi. Adobe Digital Reader for PC works fine for ePub. Calibre works for ePub and Mobi.

Then unplug your PC workstation at home, pack the computer, the keyboard and the monitor into your car and drive it to the FLGS where you play and reinstall it there, simple as that ... if you have a car that is.
Or take several hours reformating the pdf, pay 20-30$ for a durable printout and another 20-30$ for every update.

Who needs rare human storm troopers when Inquisition is flooded with Daemons and Xenos?

Spoiling all the fun...

Oh I am well aware of that model, but as the other user said, I want an Eisenhorn model for 28mm as well.

This is shaping up to be an awesome release.

I really love the idea of having an Inquisitor based army. And if they have some of the well known ones like Eisenhorn, all I can say is AWESOME.

Ok, news :

Jason Ball Its almost like the digital editions portion of GW does digital editions....

On a diffrent note, can you tell us if the inq can be taken in anothers primary? IE a INQ as an hq or elite choise in a sisters army, or if it is the ally inq can be the armies warlord?

Games Workshop: Digital Editions Hi Jason,
They have their own, unique, allies rules, but I don't want give to much away, so you'll have to wait just a little bit longer for the full rules set.

Or, you know, just print it out normally and put in into a binder with plastic sheets in it. That's what I did with my SoB WD PDF. The paper is protected and it certainly didn't cost that much.

And why would you print out the whole thing again for an update? Just print out the pages that got updated.

Ah. Well, that's a relief. Looking forward to SoB teaming up with the Red Hunters, then.

We probably won't know until it releases. We only knew that Cruddace wrote the AS codex because the iTunes version mentioned it somewhere.

Oh for God's sake Kroot - if you grind that axe any more you'll start to chip the fething blade.

How many times must it be explained that you can just print it normally yourself? Various programs have already been identified as was of simply converting it to a PDF and then printing it. And why would it cost so much to print? You don't need to print the fluff/hobby sections. You only need print the rules.

I have to agree, although:

... squadrons of Daemonhosts...

You could already do this with C:GK. Just take Conclaves of nothing but Daemonhosts.

Yeah, and it made even less sense in a Grey Knight Codex.

I think that was a carry over from the old C: DH which let you bring Daemonhosts, but when you could do it there you couldn't bring GKs IIRC.

At least it makes more sense to be able to do it without the GKs.

i have the 54mm, and the 28mm (Black Library) version...
to be honest, the 28mm version sucks by comparison...
if they are going to release another 28mm Eisenhorn, they had better do a better job the second time around...

cheers

There was a black library version? And you painted one of these? I must see....if you have the time to take a picture that is

yeah, the daemon hunters codex, IMO, was a bit better in regards to fluff and so on, and I felt it had lots of character. I do really like the new GK dex too though, but it doesnt lend well to the inquisitor side of things outside of coteaz.

this dex will be very a very nice addition to the game I think, lots of different factions can have fun with it, and I see it representing the unique awesomeness that is the =][=

Yeah the DH Codex allowed Daemonhosts, but they came in very small numbers (max 3 I believe) and you couldn't bring multiple squads of them (which is just silly). Moreover, you couldn't bring any with the Grey Knights whereas now you can have Inquisitors wielding Daemon Weapons leading squads of Daemonhosts in a Grey Knight army. It's stupid.

Fixed that for you.

actually, i haven't painted either version:(...
one day i will find the time...

the BL 28mm LE is a diorama, with Eisenhorn hunting down Glau (i think that's his name)...
two figures, a base, and a funky wall...
the figures were very poorly sculpted, and cast even worse...

you should find it with a Google search of Black Library Limited Edition miniatures, or dioramas...

cheers
jah

That?



Because that is just god awful

Oh god please eye bleach now!

Here's the BL limited edition 28mm Eisenhorn:

There's a few possibilities here, one would be we're getting something more like IG vets, a much more flexible and interesting unit than ISTs. Or they're getting renamed to something cooler like "Inquisition Enforcers" which also cuts the ties with IG Storm Troopers.

I would still lay good odds on there being some sort of IG 4+ save unit.

I just demonhosted myself after looking at that model...

Je-zus... that's awful. Just... wow.

hahahahaha
that's the one...
i told you guys it was a horrible set of sculpts...
now you can all share my pain...

cheers

Pontius Glaw is meant to be a soul in a machine body and Eisenhorn is meant to be a badass... those models are abominations.

Arbites? Hopefully? Maybe? Probably not?
