as for the inquisition 'dex itself; long, long way off lads! and i still haven't heard yet if it really will be just 1 codex. that's what most of the designers want, but the logistics of it are hellish! (ie: trying to write a proper background section for each ordo in the same amount of space as the eldar or chaos or ork 'dexes have won't be fun...)
then there's the playability & balance issue. imagine an army comprised of say, grey kngiht terminators supported by a bunch of kill-teams and some seraphim + 3 exorcists?! (all i can say is "ouch!")
and finally, it has been decided that the radicals must get the same amount of treatment as their puritan counterparts! right now us poor radicals have litterly nothing; codex daemonhunters makes radicals pretty much unplayable without resorting to some kind of allies, while codex: witch hunters has no real radical option anywhere! (and radical witch hunters are rather nasty individuals full of character i might add!)

i honestly feel that multiple books would be alot easier on the design studio. but if they can find a way to do it all in one book and keep it all well balanced, then i'd most definately bow-down to them!

cheers!
