New Inquisitor model

 A quick one this time, as I wanted to have a brief look at the new Inquisitor model. Straight up, I don't like this model, it looks like something that got rejected AoS. 


I understand that they have gone for an archotech look, with the old style armour and weapons, however, I just don't like it. The animal is interesting, and it's good that they have gone away from the standard horse but there is still something about it that I don't really like. It might just being the paint scheme that makes it look rubbish but I have t seen it in any other schemes, so I can't say. 


The rules for this guy are pretty good though, his ability to grant re-rolls to units is going to be very useful for guard models, with their high BS. His rifles abilities are even more insane, granting extra damage and strength every time he hits, means by turn 5 he could be shooting a strength 14, damage 6 rifle. At -2Ap he might not be insta killing anything but still, there isn't much that can deal with that!


All in all, this is a fun little unit. I don't see him being a common sight on the table top but he could be a fun unit to just run around the table, popping the odd character. I will wait and see it in a different paint scheme to decide if I actually want one or not, but as it stands he interesting but not essential.
