You then can save points and take the elite Inquisitor with
Psycannon, Targeter, Sage, 2 Mystics, Emperor's Tarot and your choice of either
1. 3 Heavy Bolter Servitors
2. 2 heavy Bolter Servitors, 1 Plasma cannon Servitor and second sage.

BS5 Psycannon because of sage is pretty good vs daemons like Fateweaver who only have an invulnerable save as well as Eldar Warlocks on foot.
2 Mystics gives you anti deepstrike
Emperor's Tarot gives you a +1 to go first
Targeter lets you premeasure your range.

The Plasma Cannon servitor and second sage are expensive but if you play against marines alot it is pretty good versus clumped marines from a destroyed transport you get to reroll the scatter with 2 sages if you don't get a hit or small scatter the first time. Otherwise just go with the cheaper 3 heavy bolters.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076608.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076608.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076621.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076621.page GMT Re:How to really use inquisitor and retinue? LOS is very easy. If I'm not playing against daemons or deep strikers I'll keep him in reserve.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076838.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076838.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076919.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076919.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076923.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076923.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? ws?). Thats a 6 man retinue so i could still take a regular inquisitor instead of a lord. Is the lord worth it? Do i need a lord to take hood?

Also i think this type of gun base works best for the play style im aiming for. One psycannon and three other heavy weapons with a sage and two mystics should make me effective and ward of deep strikers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076983.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1076983.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue?

Sage gives the inquisitor +1 BS.

You only need an Inquisitor Lord if you're not bringing an Brother-Captain. The BC has LD10 so he's the one who should get the hood. You can stick the Inquisitor in the Elites slot because his LD doesn't really matter.

If you're going to use this list in a tournament, I'd suggest giving your Inquisitor sanctuary. It's an auto-win against daemons. For friendly play, I wouldn't use it for the same reason. No Daemons player will want to play you.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1077015.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1077015.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1077222.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1077222.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? If you go the shooty route for your inquisitor squad, and you take a plasma cannon, take a second sage. The reroll on the scatter will average a lot more damage than, say, another HB if you are tight on spots. The re-roll on the Cannon also means that there is a 1/32 chance it will get hot, and a 1/64 chance it will kill your Servitor.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1083175.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1083175.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? Plas Cannons don't roll to hit, their 'Gets Hot!' is not part of shooting (it's before), the second sage is really only good for rerolling the blast scatter.

Or are people playing that Sage can reroll that 'Get's Hot' roll even though Sage says 'Can reroll a To Hit roll'.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1090115.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1090115.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue? fo the Emporer and you can prevent the squad form being assaulted. This is one of the things I was thinking about before I ended up deciding on taking some sisters to get extra anti-tank. 3 Dreads against IG sucked. My terminators deepstriking behind the tanks and assaulting them worked much better at destroying them then constantly shooting at them. On a side note Dreads are an amazing tarpit against Grey Knight Termies if they don't have a DCCW.

*Please note anyone deepstriking more than 5 thinks they are incredibly lucky or are using a teleport homer. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1090322.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/263044/1090322.page GMT How to really use inquisitor and retinue?
