CORRECTIONS
- The Corvus Blackstar has the Retinue Keyword so CAN be fielded as an ally sorry - you could have a Kill Team in a Corvus as an Assigned agents choice at 2000pts for example.

[XUnsafeNormalX]

I like the part where you can put up to 12 rhinos and chimeras in the Imperial Agent Rhino because they forgot to specify infantry.

[SafetyBriefer]

Some Deathwatch player crushed a kid who’s dad works at Games Workshop and this is what happened.

[CarnageCoon]

this isn't a codex, it's a list of auxillary units
who tf thought "ey let's make a codex without faction rule"

[NecroGoblin-ylfx]

Custodes codex comes out - it's the worst codex in 10th.
Imperial agents codex - Hold my beer i can top that.

[Persn]

I kept saying it since that "army" has been announced but it's worth repeating: thime fact that they released an inquisitorial army without even bothering to release a proper inquisitor kit and a proper all purpose backbone infantry (ie inquisitorial storm troopers) shows how luttle thought they put in this while project.

[kulman]

No Inquisitorial Stormtroopers means that this is still not the real Imperial Agents codex

[roadburn]

So deathwatch lost most of their units and got nothing but nerfs in their rules thats exwctly what a ~40% WR army needed thanks GW

[JinTrixx]

Killing off the unit for arguably the most beloved character in the lore is definitely a choice

[jacoblobodinsky]

big guns never tire and auspex is one of the biggest guns we have

[christopherfreitas]

For the first time in 10th edition i was actually excited. Just to have my joy turn turn ashes before me. Such a shame they fumbled this like they do most else now ..

[ElGrompho]

Looks like Codex "Oh no, they brought tanks, not fair..."

[buttemountain]

Imagine you walk into an expensive restaurant. When you order, you tell the waiter, “surprise me”. When the waiter returns, he proudly lifts the lid from the platter to reveal a fresh steaming turd with Parmesan and parsley sprinkled on top. He leans in and whispers in your ear, “I’ll give your compliments to the chef”.
That’s what this “mystery codex” turned out to be.

[sop]

im a little bit bewildered that there are no options to take scions or kasrkin as inquisitorial stormtroopers. isn't that supposed to be the inquisition's main go-to for foot soldiers?

[marrowkaiproductions]

The Unsleeping Champion posts again maintaining his record of 403 years without sleep!

[gstellar]

I'm pretty disappointed since I think this could have (or maybe become) a really cool army centered around a medieval style guard force lead by an inquisitor who deploys specialized units of death watch, arbities, sisters, and Grey knights where they're needed depending on the enemy but they really didn't try. It's a hodge podge of units with little care to how they would be deployed as an army just like the agents have always been except now you can pay 60$ for the privilege of being screwed

[Discospawn]

This feels like somebody said, "Let's make an Imperium version of Harlequins, " but were terrified of Imperial Agents being as strong as that mini-codex was.

Edit: It's up to the individual to decide how much of that idea was motivated by trying to sell warehouses of unsold Kill Team models.

[LysimedVenteel]

GW: the Power system didn’t work, and none of you liked it. Let’s change to Points.
Also GW: *changes Points into Power*

GW: soup lists are hard to balance, and they don’t look as good on the table.
Also GW: *makes an entire army of Imperial soup*

[JinTrixx]

Somehow GW have out-GW'd themselves with how absolutely awful this codex is

[Darkja]

Good news for the Blood Angels i suppose!, you probably got the good writter this time! (or at least lets hope so, and GW didnt overwork the bad one with 2 codexes!)
