If an Inquisitor with an Acolyte suffers a wound, he may accolade the wound to the Acolyte instead. This must be done before saving throws are attempted.

Mechanicus Adepts may take Mechandrites for +5 points (1 special rending attack, must roll a D6 when used: on a roll of 1 the arm is damaged and cannot be used again), and Bionics for +5 points.

Null: 8pts

Psykers targeting a unit with a Null in it with a psychic power must roll 3D6 for their psychic test and choose the two highest. If there are ANY two 2's or 12's rolled, they take a Perils of the Warp attack. If three 2's or 12's are rolled, they take a normal Perils of the Warp attack. In addition, the Null reduces the Leadership of any model with in a 12" radius of the Null that has a psychic power by 1.

If the Inquisitor has two Nulls, psykers must roll 4D6 and take the highest on a psychic power targeting a unit with two Nulls in it, in addition to the above rules.

If there are three Nulls in the unit, then the unit acts as if one member or the unit was holding a Null Rod (see Codex: Daemonhunters armoury).

Transport vehicle: If the Inquisitor has a retinue, and he and his unit number 10 models or less, they may be mounted in a Rhino for +50 points, a Land Raider for +250 points, a Land Raider Crusader for 265 points, or, if they number 12 models or less, a Chimera at +70 points.  Note that if the Inquisitor is wearing Terminator armour, he cannot travel in a Rhino and will take up two spaces in a Chimera or Land Raider.
