Games Workshop reveals Codex: Imperial Agents for Warhammer 40K

Codex: Imperial Agents

The Inquisition is coming to Warhammer 40K with Codex: Imperial Agents. While Inquisitors themselves aren’t a force unto themselves, they can draft entire armies into their service. Some join other Imperial forces while some assemble auxiliary troops into their own force. You’ll be able to do both with the new codex.

With Codex: Imperial Agents, you’ll be able to add Inquisitorial aid to your army or build a force on its own.

A certain number of units can be added to other Imperium armies which should make things interesting for force building, especially with the new additions available. The roster has also been expanded to fill out Ordo Xenos, Malleus, and Hereticus forces. Deathwatch Kill Teams will be joining the Retinue units.

Imperial Agents Army Rule: Assigned Agents

Within the Codex, you’ll also find Watch Masters, Corvus Blackstars, and Watch Captain Artemis. There’ll be a full Deathwatch contingent that can be added to any Imperium army, with leaders, squads, and transports.

There’s also a new Requisitioned category that features Grey Knights Terminators and Battle Sister squads. Also included are Priests and Navigators.

For those who want to field an entire army of Imperial Agnets, you can do that too. The Codex features four new Detachments with their own Detachment rules, Stratagems, and Enhancements. You can have a full Inquisitorial force with no limitations on the number of units you can take. Three of the Detachments are themed around the major Inquisitorial Ordos, while the fourth features Imperial Naval backing.

Along with the Codex comes a new Inquisitor Lord Torquemada Coteaz miniature along with three new Battleforce boxes. The boxes represent Ordo Xenos, Ordo Malleus, and Ordo Hereticus allowing you to easily expand your existing force with each themed box or start a new one.
