the Hitchhiking Inquisitor

[son_of_volmer]

Is it alright to join an Inquisitor to a squad of Sternguard and have them all transported together in a drop pod?

What about plopping my Inquisitor into a transport that is chosen through some sort of formation? Like Angel's Fury Spearhead (Slightly Annoyed, High-Pitched Buzzing) Force. There are three Storm Ravens in this formation, and they are loaded with ten marines each, leaving two extra transport spots (and a dread port). Can an Inquisitor slip into the raven and join a squad?

Short answer - yes

as a BB and an IC he can join the squad

Thanks Holmes!

So, being a Battle Brother and Independent Character allows you to snake into transports taken in a formation?

I know there's tones of 'guff' about whether or not this grants Formation specific special rules to the Independent Character, I'm not so interested in that. I just want my Prescience caster to hitch a ride.

Unless the Formation provides a Restriction against it. Formations are no different from any other detachment in this regard.
