The forces of the Inquisition really caught my attention way back when the Daemonhunters Codex was launched, but I was keen all the way back to the Inquisitor RPG and before. Taking the plunge, I figured that naturally the best way to proceed was to build a Grey Knights list around Coteaz, just with no Grey Knights, and no Coteaz.

Coteaz is cool, but I like doing my own backgrounds and writing my own stories. So I started with a Counts-As Coteaz stand-in. His name is Inquisitor Phylax, and unlike Coteaz, who is pure and righteous and furious with all things radical, Phylax is a rationalizing, self-serving radical.

The man himself is made from a reaper figure, one of their heroic-scale paladin types or somesuch. He was a fairly straightforward conversion; I just swapped out sword and shield for hammer and bolt pistol. A power plant on the back turned the baroque plate into power armor, and a psyber-owl on his shoulder comes from the Wood Elf Dryads kit.


Here's Phylax with his retinue: 4 Crusaders, 3 Servitors with plasma cannon, 3 warrior acolytes with plasma gun, and 2 squat weaponsmiths.


A closeup of the squats. Sorry for the fuzzy quality, I'm refining my photography skills. These guys are old RT era squats, and their ridiculous weapons are cobbled from many bits.


Here are the servitors. These guys are based on the basic MI Trooper from the Starship Troopers game. I got the heads from Skalkbloodaxe, the arms are from WHFB zombies, and the plasma cannons came off some devastators I wasn't using.


My crusaders. One is a stock model, the rest are repurposed from my Empire army.


And the plasma acolytes (placolytes?). These guys are also Starship Troopers models, with Space marine scout heads and arms, and plasma guns from various kits.


I'm working on converting up a squad of arco-flagellants, and I have some multi-melta servitors based off the same template who just need another Inquisitor to lead them. This project has me jumping around a lot. A lot more than usual anyway. I'll try to keep the updates regular and interesting. Thanks for looking!

And here are the first two completed arco-flagellants. These guys were pretty simple, basically just amputated crypt ghouls with puttied masks/helms/blindfolds. A lot of the various bones, spikes, blades, and other nubbins were clipped to form injection sites, and others were left as sacred relics and spiky bits.

Love the terrain .

tuiman, please feel free! As for the DCAs, yes, they're in the squad I'm working on next. I'm doing a team of 6 arco-flagellants, 4 DCAs, and 2 acolytes with meltabombs; I figured it would make a pretty decent all-comers close assault or area deterrence team. For the DCAs, I'm using metal witch elves, just doctoring up the ears where they show, and filing off any symbols that are too heretical.

Here we have an Inquisitorial Henchmen Warband consisting of 4 Death Cult Assassins, 6 Arco-Flagellants, and 1 Warrior Acolyte with meltabombs.

The Assassins were, as you can see, repurposed Witch Elves left over from a Dark Elf army I sold ages ago. There was very little actual work done to them, other than a few cuts to reposition the arms and blades a little more dynamically.

The Arco-Flagellants are Crypt Ghouls with some converting. I replaced their hands with various sharp cutty stabby things, and puttied their heads to make various masks, hoods, etc. The others I've done thus far all have many different styles of facial covering; the only universal is that I felt their eyes should be covered, indicating a loss of free will and personal identity. Here and there on the surface of the skin, I used copper wire and bits of rod to create various cables and injectors, and I left many of the bones and spikes driven into their flesh. Arco-flagellants undergo extensive modification, and I saw no reason why that couldn't include various barbs, blades, and holy relics.

Finally, the acolyte is an old Storm Trooper sergeant. This model in particular was used in a Dark Heresy game I ran a few years back, he was Sergeant Daedalus, an Inquisitorial guardsman acolyte.

Note the size of the squad; at 11 models there's room for the Techpriest I'm working on, and the whole unit will fit into the Stormraven that I'm about halfway through finishing. More updates as they come!
