So, I got plane and expenses paid to do some seminars in Europe, and the peeps that invited me are paying for a long layover - two days - in Amsterdam, which has two GW stores in walking distance of the hotel.
This is a big deal for me, as I have never been to a GW store, in my life.
And, South Korea has exactly..... none.
SO, might be a while before I ever get back.
Anyways, I am looking to take an expeditionary force to try to get a quick game in with the staff or hangers on, whoever is about.
And, I am not sure what to take.
One thing is, most of my stuff is metal. Which is heavy, Which sucks.
So, out with orks, as even 500 points of orks and gobbos is weighing a ton (I have already packed them, now reconsidering due the weight factor - note, even my dreads and kans are metal, warboss, metal, big mek, metal, everything metal but the battlewagon).
So, thinking instead about inquisiton.
I haven't factored points yet, just kicking it around,
and I have NEVER played a game (any edition) with these models,
though have been collecting them for a long time,
so for fun let me know what you think and what to do differently:

2 Xenos Inquisitors.
null rod
needle pistol
null rod
plasma pistol

acolytes x 8
2 with storm bolters
2 with bolters
2 with power mauls
2 with boltpistols/ccw

rhino

4x scion units
4x flamers

hellhound

venerable dreadnought
ass cannon
hvy flamer
(I do have a twin lascannon that I could swap out for the ass cannon by the way)

I see what you did there

for a small 500pt list I'd probably drop one inquisitor and add more anti infantry shots.
for acolytes why not take 4 with storm bolter and 4 with power maul? or 6 with storm bolter, 2 with powermaul?

scions with some plasma maybe?

Thanks for the advice.
I don't have any plasma guys modeled up, and I leave in two days with work to do so...
not gonna be able to get the changes made in time I think.

I can drop one inquisitor though, and add more firepower to the acolyte unit, i.e. more storm bolters.
That said, my index seems to indicate that 6 acolytes is the limit.
Is this wrong?
