Inquisitor and Psyker Ally Question

[Whereswaldo]

I normally play 2-3 Land Raider Spam Dark Angels with the Bolter Banner or Space Marines Bikes .... I really like inquisitor stuff lore wise and i've always been a fan of IG psyker squads - looking through the codex inquisition stuff I was thinking about adding in around 250 points of inquisition.

What I was thinking was

Inquisitor Ordo Xenos (3 Servo Skulls - Divination)
10 Psykers
Valkyrie (Multiple Rocket Pods, Heavy Bolter Sponsors) - not sure about keeping the using multiple rocket pods or using the missiles.

The inquisitor and psykers deploy with the Valkyrie and grav chute in nuking something off the bat and hopefully last a couple turns after - servo skulls deploy stopping scouting from opponents

Thoughts?

why xenos?

[Whereswaldo]

flavor, since i'm going to keep him cheap for servo skulls / psyker unlock there isn't a large point to make him any other ones (since I won't be picking up the other wargear options - for 250pt allies) ... all my opponents plays xenos too lol

[iamian]

well I would suggest keeping the missiles as they give better anti-air flavor. and if your playing a lot of xenos I would suggest the tome of vethric.

You only need 8 psykers to make the shot 10/1. Why not put a couple cheap acolytes in there instead as a fail safe to keep the unit scoring if they perils.

I guess if I wanted to up the points of the unit i could run

inq with divination
8 psykers
3 acolytes with plasma guns

... definitely something to think about

I'd throw in 2-3 servo skulls. If you have any real cc units, then rad and psykotroke grenades are well worth it, with power armor.
