Hey guys,

With the new release of the Inquisition supplement, I am eager to try out adding some Inquisitors into my Dark Angels. Now, I will say that I have not purchased the book yet nor do I know much about the rules behind Inquisitors, but from what I have gathered I have made two "support" inquisitors to help in my drop pod Dark Angels list. I am gearing up towards running this list as a Greenwing option instead of my standard Ravenwing Deathwing combo, as it is getting a little stale. Let me know if I should change anything with the Inquisition force, as I am not 100% on what the different braches do in terms of rules. I like Malleus and Xenos for their fluff, and it would makes sense for either one of them to be wit the Dark Angels (probably more so for Malleus).

Inquisition Allies:
Ordo Malleus Inquisitor (I am looking to make this character a female inquisitor. If any of you have recommendations as to where to get a good model let me know )
- Power Armor
- Bolt Pistol, psyk-out grenades, krak, frag, etc.
- Hellrifle
- Psyker (divination)
- 3x Servo Skulls

Ordo Malleus Inquisitor
- Power Armor
- Bolt Pistol, psyk-out grenades, krak, frag, etc.
- Hellrifle
- Psyker (divination)

Dark Angels

HQ
Librarian
- Terminator Armor
- Lion's Roar (for cool factor)
- Force Stave
- Level 2 (Divination)

Terminator Command Squad
- Champion w/ Halberd
- Assault Cannon
- TH/SS x3
- Banner of Fortitude

TROOPS
Tactical Squad [x2]
- Sgt w/ combi-plasma
- Plasma Gun
- Plasma Cannon
- Drop Pod w/ storm bolter

Tactical Squad [x2]
- Sgt w/ combi-melta
- Melta Gun
- Multi-Melta
- Drop Pod w/ storm bolter

So the idea is to combat squad the plasma tacticals. Have the plasma cannons set up in some ruins in my deployment area, and claim an objective and lay down some plasma templates all game. One Inquisitor will go with each of the two plasma cannon squads to give them divination, and add support fire with the Hellrifle (36" range I believe?), hopefully scoring some 6's to snipe characters or enemy plasma users.

On turn one, both squads of full melta will drop, as well as the Deathwing Command Squad for some alpha strike potential. Using the servo skulls to negate scatter more (that's what they do right?) I can hopefully get all 20 marines and the command squad together to let them all benefit from the banner of Fortitude. Librarian's divination is somewhat wasted, but he gets twin-linked on drop so it's not too bad. I am debating using a different discipline instead but I just can't see anything useful. Hopefully my melta squads will be able to lay down enough damage to set up a nice little landing zone and gun down some enemies. And hopefully the FNP from the banner will let some of my guys live longer. As the game progresses, I will just drop the plasma squads where they are needed to either take objectives or take out big targets. My terminators will mostly stay in support and be a fire magnet, keeping my scoring units alive.

I am not going for a super competitive list, but one that can do well and be fun to play. Thoughts?

just looking at the list .... your light on support and spent a good deal of points on upgrades

I don't think the list is going to work very well .... @1500 points dark angels I normally run 3 land raider crusaders with banner of devastation (and I am slowly moving to full SM bikes due to DA not being a great option these days)

you have 3 units of subpar units holding your army together .... add in more units

for the female inquisitor (just looking a while until I found a male one from mantic games (warpath) ... warmachine has 1-2 good looking female models that could fit.

What would you suggest adding / removing?

I have 42 power armored bodies that all score and 6 terminators all in the opponent's face by turn 3 most likely.

Do you think I should add an Aegis defence line with quad gun or something and make one of the plasma squads have flakk missiles just in case?
