Hi All,
well doing a witch hunters list and wanted something a lil different. I've put together a list most of which I am familiar with and understand well but would like your views on the synergy between them all and anything I'm lacking didn't think of etc.
HQ
Inquisitor Lord, psychic hood, plasma pistol, power weapon, frag grenades
Retinue 3 warriors with plasma guns + familiar
transport Godhammer landraider
cannoness (read more below on type)
Elite
Vindicaire assasin
(depending on type of cannoness I may bring 2 deathcults
Troops
10 sisters of battle, flamer, heavy flamer, vetern with book of st lucius, rhino smoke
5 storm troopers 2 meltas rhino smoke
5 storm troopers 2 meltas rhino smoke
5 storm troopers 2 meltas rhino smoke
heavy support
Exorcist

Ok so the Inquisitor lord I've used a bit and really like this setup. He generally sits back a little maybe babysits a unit on an objective minds a flank etc. With 7 plasma shots they can give a squadron of landspeeder a rough time or even knock a few corners off a unit of assault terminators. With the familiar and 2 cc weapons the Inq is WS5 I5 A5 albeit at S3 and in the landraider has a nice range. He has taken out units of eldar bikes and the like pretty much on his own. The landraider obviously draws fire, acts as a firing platform, protects the inquisitor, extends his assualt range, protects exorcists weak side armour.
I'm trying to decide wheter to take a jumpack cannoness with inferno pistol and blessed weapon for some independent close combat badness
or
a cannoness with power weapon and bolt pistol for supporting another unit (e.g book of st lucius means could advance with storm troopers providing all with 6inches LD10 or In raider with INQ to beef up the cc ability.) with this setup I would also take 2 death cult assassings just to give me something with a bit of oomph which can outflank and infiltrate.
Vindicaire will draw fire, be annoying and provide battlefield wide support
1 unit of battle sisters to provide flamery goodness. for those times when I need lots wounds with an ap1 sprinkle. I've got 3 faith points here and with devine guidance these guys can whittle a unit right down. The power armour also stops the rhino being open topped on drive bys. 10 of them with power armour makes them a much tougher unit to shift off an objective.
Storm troopers squads - provide me with cheap melta and throw away scoring units.
Exorcists - D6 s8 ap1 shots each with armour 13 - should need no explanation
