I'm curious, why pick a Malleus inquisitor? I usually find that unless you want him for Terminator Armor and force Thunder Hammers, the other Inquisitors are better. To support shooting, Psycollum is hilariously good against almost every top tier army. In assault, a Xenos Inquisitor with grenades and a priest will make Guardsmen kill Terminators with ease. If he's just for the psychics, then it's kind of moot all the way around anyways.

It was half fluff half tank boost really.

Servo skulls to limit my opponent somewhat, Psychic powers to essentially twin-link one of my tanks per turn,, and keep him near my rear field to defend the ADL and artillery from deepstrikes / fast enemies.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/592957/6787108.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/592957/6787108.page GMT 1750 Imperial Guard, ABG and Inquisition tank army

Fair enough, but any inquisitor does that. I was just curious if you had a reason for Malleus specifically.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/592957/6788376.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/592957/6788376.page GMT
