Title: Few Questions
Post by: Nemo vas Varya on October 18, 2012, 01:32:33 PM

I am thinking about using some Inquisitors and Henchmen for an allies list for my guard... but I have a few questions:

Is it even worth it? Second can I use guardsmen models as henchmen? I don't have the money to go out and buy models, but I like to minimize proxies and just need to know if guardsmen meet the wysiwyg requirements of henchmen, or at least come close. Not asking for rules, just wanting to know the viability before I buy a codex with money I don't really have :-p

If you're not interested in using Grey Knights then you're pretty much stuck with Inquisitor Coteaz, as hes the only way to have the required troops without grey knight space marines.

Yes you can use guardsmen as henchmen easily, apart from standard imperial special weapons many people prefer them with boltguns or stormbolters as its cheap effective weaponry. Although if you have a few spare IG and some bolters/stormbolters it's an easy weapon swap.
