    IMO, most of the wishlisting has it backwards.

    C:Inq will almost certainly *NOT* have Deathwatch, Grey Knights, Guard or or Sisters, because that defeats the entire point of separating Sisters from Inquisition from Grey Knights from the rest.

    C:Inq will have Inquisitors, Assassins, Retinues and Stormtroopers (forgot about those earlier) - those things not directly represented by SM, GK, IG, or Sisters. Likely, it's a very narrow Codex, like Sororitas Ecclesiarchy, but that narrowness allows for deeper character.

    The blended forces are handled via Allies. This allows Retinues to stand for Arbites / Gangers / PDF, whatever.

    And likely future C:GK will drop the Inq elements.

    But the idea of an Imperial mishmash of Inquisitor, GK, Deathwatch, Sisters, Arbites, PDF, Hive Gangers and Guardsmen no longer holds. Those who bought piecemeal will be forced to expand to full armies with full Allies.

    The only question in my mind is whether Inquistition will be allowed to Ally with itself as different Ordos.

    Yes... that makes sense.

    I still think it could be used to bring a lot of character to a Sisters of Battle army through powerful "hammer" units, which is what the Sisters seem to be missing.

    I'm not sure this is a supplemental codex (given up referring to them as Appendex's, on account it refused to catch on. You wait, some goon on Dakka will pinch it and it'll suddenly be hip and cool...) you know.

    Seems to be closer to the Adepta Sororita than say, Iyanden.

    So do we think codex inquisition is where all the rumours of a mystery box inquisitor skirmish game came from?

    I was thinking the same thing. I hope not though.

    Sadly I think the Mystery box is dead in the water (if it were is ever alive). Still, I'm interested to see what codex inquisition holds.

    Wondered what happened to Boxy. Now I know...and the perp shall pay! But enough about my nipsy!

    I suspect that this Codex, combined with the stuff John Blanche has been doing in White Dwarf may have lead to confusion, and suspicion of an Inquisitorial skirmish game on the horizon.

    Or it's a massive triple bluff, and the Codex is out now to bait us for a Chrimbo super-secret-Squirrel-splash release of a ltd ed game box.

    I'm hoping that the mystery box happens, and contains Inquisitors and retinues, and this Codex lets any Imperial force include those models. Which would be convenient, and boost mystery box sales?

    But whatever, I'm dead excited. This will be my first digital codex!
