=][= Kill Team

Sup Bell-ers? Or is it Lost Souls? San Diegans.

SO. My Local Gaming Store is starting a new campaign in May and it revolves around Inquisitors and their Warbands. One Saturday a month there will be 1500 point games where you can take what ever army you like and you must ally in the Inquisitor and their Warband (which I'm not sure if I will play in or not) but on a single Tuesday a month, the Warbands will be facing off in a Kill Team setup. We will be playing 250 and you can only take 1 Inquisitor with his/her warband. That said, I expect lots of psykers but the rest of the meta is pretty unclear.

Here is what I'm planning to run.

Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor Lord - Upgrade to Psyker and Power Armor with a Combi Flamer and Null Rod - 98
Ministorum Priest with Feel No Pain Specialist- Eviscerator and Storm Bolter - 60
6 Arco-Flagellants (1 with Hammer of Wrath, 1 with Stealth) - 90

Thoughts? Questions, Comments, Concerns? Ideas on what the meta will look like?

Thanks for reading.

I really like the idea of my Inquisitor being a Psyker Hunter. If he has the null rod, he can insta-gib out any Inquisitors who are Psykers. I also like the idea of the Ministorum Priest with Rerolls on his Invulnerable and with FNP giving him tons of survivability. He takes an eviscerator and then he can also Intant Death opposing Inquisitors.

I was setting this up with the intent of very intentionally using matchups to my advantage, so the Inquisitor and Priest go after the opposite Inquisitor, while the rest take off the rest.

Follow up thoughts from a different conversation.

I think I'll replace 3 of the Arcos with Acolytes with Combi Melta (if they take vehicles), Combi Plasma (going for the ranged threats) and Combi Flamer (if they go Acolyte blob) to balance out my threats.

I dont own any imperial models whatsoever (staunch pointy eared player) and I dont much fancy meching up, just for this. My experience with Dark Eldar is that give someone a single target and they know exactly where to shoot. Since I can't saturate their targets, the Jokaeros and servitors will wreck that single tank fast as all hell.

The psyker null rod combo may prove problematic. If you want to hammer hand your unit. The null rodwill prevent that.
Not that the null rod is a bad choice, it does not work with the psyker up grade.
You may want to swap the inquiz combi flames to a acolyte and give him the melta, as he has better bs

One other thought

If your campaign is based on inquisitors vs inquisitors, then making your inquisitor a psyker makes him more vulnerable to ordo heritcus builds.
