Am I the only one that wants the Orbital Strike Relay as a heavy support option again?

I would love to see that as a heavy support along with the following for the inquisitor's ride...

Wondering if I can finaly have dca and crusaders in a raider in my SOBs

Preview is online and if you don't want to spend the time downloading it or can't I've got it up here:
http://www.talkwargaming.com/2013/11/Codex-Inquisition-Preview.html

Just a warning, it's a bit image intense.

Not sure what pre ordering the codex does for you? What's the point?

I'd love nothing more but to recycle one of my vendettas as an Inq vehicle. I do hope that they put in a mechanism to allow troops to use each others' transports, though.

Guys, I did admit my material came from the Dark Angels codex... and not much good comes out of that book.

I'm now worried that they are going to follow the SOB codex with the deathcults and make them power sword only.....But the rest looks good.

GW DE answered that one: basically it's because it automatically downloads, and some people just like pre-ordering. It's not like removing pre-orders will change when it releases anyways.

Either way it gets us previews and I dig that.

Probably, as well as the Crusaders too. I expect an errata for the GK book sometime in the future actually.

They've never errata'd to take away options before. So I doubt we'll see an errata for the GK book but when/if the C:I deathcults are only armed with swords I'm gonna be sad as I've got a pretty nicely converted unit that includes 8 DC's and 3 Crusaders armed with a mix of axes and maces. Oh well, at least they look cool

The change to the servo harness changed it from extra attacks to replacing your attacks. So yeah, I'd say it's not impossible.

Nevermind. I apparently didn't have the most updated FAQ. Interesting. But I'd argue that 3 St8 AP1 attacks is better than 2 St8 AP1 and 3 St4 AP- attacks. Especially for a GK dude that can make them St10.

That's a wargear choice though, not a unit selection. Guess we'll see.

Well it certainly has a Stormtrooper pic.

All the Servo-Harnesses where changed via Errata when C:SM dropped.

Looks like all the SC inquisitors will be in this. Wonder how that will affect GK?

I also noticed a ministorum priest. I wonder if they will be the same as AS?

Exciting times...I will probably buy this just for the ordo chronos fluff. Probably my favorite ordo even if no one else likes them.

If there are storm troopers then I have a feeling there may very well be valks. Would be pretty awesome.

since when were Death cults and crusaders armed with "power swords" instead of power weapons? was that in the new digi dex?

Is Eisenhorn actually getting rules, or just fluff?

For some odd reason, I can see an orbital strike relay as being an upgrade to an inquisitor.

According to GW DE no change to the GK codex, at least this GK codex.

C:AS made them all run around with Power Swords instead of Power Weapons. Basically they undid the erratta. Maybe someone realized DCA with the ability to take Swords and Mauls was silly?

Fluff according to GW DE.

C:WH you could take an Orbital Strike as a Heavy Support. The problem, IIRC, is you had to elect a terrain peice as your target and you automatically fired at it every turn and scattered the full 2D6" from there, even if you rolled a hit (you use the tiny arrow on the die) so you could easily hurt yourself with it.

Getting this. I still have a RT inq in termy armor. He's coming out!

Ordo Chronus hey? Now that is interesting.

So why would they be showing a picture of Redemionists? As a random photo goes, it would have belonged in the AS codex more then this one.

They will get an extra transport

I've always wanted a codex like this for my Imperial Guard army. But all the previews suggest there are none of the 4-class assassins. It would really suck if It did not get a chance to include them (and upated)

Maybe they will be doing a Offico Assassinorium Digi Codex as well...........

There are some more Temples in the fluff...............

I am waiting to hear more about the content before I commit myself to this........

The preview looks very nice. I definitely hope this goes to print !

Spoiler:

You meant two extra transports, certainly.

Only 20€.

On the one hand this could be a release comparable to the SoB codex, which had surprisingly much for the prize, on the other hand it could be something along the lines of the supplements.

Obviously hoping for the former one.

Too much information....

That said, there are certainly the options to create an inquisitor who could represent him.

w00t that means Sherlock Obiwan Clouseau is in!

For those who have never heard of him...

There was even a figure



RT days were awesome days.

So, with the Ord Chronos in there, I fully expect a Doctor Who Inquisitor conversion.

He can also have a blue Land Raider.

Apart from what Zion said, my own speculation is that it's an anti-piracy measure. This way, there's literally no way you can lay claim to a copy other than pre-ordering from GW. If they just released them normally, as a digital release, it'd be all over certain parts of the internet very quickly.

Well naturally the Sister's Drop Pods would be a bit different, they'd have 400% more "bling".

Well, that's a given. Every SoB vehicle has swag. But I was thinking more along the lines of safety gear to let them use the drop pod safely, so it fits with the mentioned fluff in the DA codex.
