The Inquisition are getting new rules in Psychic Awakinging: Pariah, which is releasing tomorrow.

IIRC from the leaks, instead of having a single Inquisitor being able to be taken without taking up a slot, you can instead take as many Inquisitorial units without breaking detachment traits and combat doctrines equivalents in non-mandatory slots. So you can actually run an Inquisitor with Retinue without needing a separate detachment (which would cost CP in 9th). This is working off memory, I'll have a more concrete answer when I get a look at the book.

Well that would explain why I could not find any references anywhere, thanks.

Just FYI, that turned out to be false advertising from GW. You cannot take inquisition units in other Imperium detachments. It's still only Inquisitors that have the rule. Monkeys etc are still a bad joke, and shame on GW for spreading false information ahead of time, getting peoples' hopes up and encouraging them to buy the book and models based on false advertising.

The rule is exactly the same as before: you can take one Inquisitor (not Inquisition unit) in a detachment, and it doesn't take up a slot, or break doctrines etc. It's actually worse, because it takes the same slot as an assassin now. So you can take one or the other per detachment, but not both.

Goonhammer?

So some random person who didn't design the game says that it's a PR stunt and so people believe this person.

Where's my tinfoil hat?

I have Pariah in front of me and it says that only a single Inquisitor can be included per Imperium detachment without repercussions, unless it's an Inquisition detachment.

going straight to "tinfoil hat" is a bit rude and over the top

Goonhammer was just the first to break the rules; they didn't say anything about it being a PR stunt, they just said what the rules are, and noted that they aren't changed from how it worked before.

You can look at the book as easy as anyone else, mate. You can even read the page yourself off a youtube video if you want. It's right there. There's no ambiguity. The rule is the same as before - only Inquisitors get to be taken in othe detachments.
