Elemantl What special Guard army hosts a company of Sisters in it? You said Inquisitorial Stormtroopers, and as far as I pay any attention, the only armies that get them are the Daemonhunters and the Witchhunters.

Daemonhunters cannot include Sisters in their numbers actually. They can steal squads and vehicles of Marines and Guard, but not Sisters. Allying is still possible I think, but in that manner SIsters are no more viable than Eldar or Freebooter Orks.

Yes they can ally, but unless they are both taken as auxiliaries for space Marines, they cannot be used together.

Now to the witch hunter codex page 25 it says that WH can be used by DH. So what page does it say that sisters dont work with daemon hunters? (Keep in mind codex WH is newer then DH so it is the most recent version of the ally rules.)

I also am looking at page 21, where it says they may induct members of the Imperial Guard and Space Marines. Are you looking at the grey box that lists the potential allies they may take? Those are just allies, not actual members of the Inquisitorial taskforce. I believe that it lists using Daemonhunter forces in conjunction with your already complete army. Tacked on squads so you can experiement with Deamonhunter forces before actually making a true Daemonhunter army. Pages 30 and 31 elaborate on the actual units you may use in a Daemonhunter force, telling you which forces from which armies my be taken inducted into the Daemonhunter army.

So in fewer words, a Sisters force can include Daemonhunters, but not vice versa.

That the WH codex is newer and it holds the most current version of the allies rules and these take precedent over those in codex DH...

So that was all updated in the Witchhunters book, eh? Sorry, didn't read that. Fair enough then, but I'm still not going to allow my friend who plays Sisters to use my Daemonhunters, he's good enough on his own. So does that mean that there is an army army that could consist of all spectrums of the might of the Imperium and only have one player controlling it? That's just plain mean to whoever is facing that army. What Guard units would make the cut for such an elite force aside from tanks and possibly a Hardened Veterans squad?

Trust me, there is A place for such an army. And it is feasible too. I intent to make mine into such an army in the long term. A 15000 point army. That will kick a**.

So if you have IG with DH you can also have DW but not WH. So the only way to get DH, DW, and WH is with WH as the parent list but then you get no sisters cause of the DW is a form of SM or you can have sisters and Inducted guard but no DW. They are very tricky rules but they work okay until xeno hunters in a few years. Which will update the Ally rules to be really screwy more then likely...

I was under the impression that Xeno Hunters was going to come out much sooner than in A few years. The way it seems they have been doing it is that the Hunters are released between every few codices, not every few years.

All that is deffinate is we wait and see...
