Serious puns aside, I don’t think anyone saw this release coming. According to Games Workshop’s digital editions, it looks like any Imperial army will be able to field Inquisitors as allies.
What does this mean for the meta? Well if you remember just a few years ago everyone splashed the Daemonhunters book for intercepting mytics. It’s possible we can expect more of the same, OR perhaps an emphasis on some of the other Ordos that haven’t gotten any love in a long time.
Personally I’d love to see the return of Inquisitor Silas Hand, an epic man of the Emperor indeed.
Here’s all the details as we know it.
Finally, following the release of Codex: Adepta Sororitas earlier this month, we are very excited to announce the next digital exclusive codex. (drumroll……..) This November, you will be able to download the brand new Codex: Inquisition. A full codex, packed with background and artwork on the forces of the Imperium’s most secretive and powerful organization. You’ll soon be able to field an Inquisitor and their retinue in any Imperial army in games of Warhammer 40,000.
