Acolytes

When a friendly INQUISITOR model within 3” of this unit would lose any wounds as a result of an attack made against that model, this unit can attempt to intercept that attack. Roll one D6; on a 2+ that model does not lose those wounds and one model from this unit is destroyed. Only one attempt can be made to intercept each attack.

If this unit contains 1 Acolyte at the start of battle, it gains the CHARACTER keyword.

INFANTRY units with this ability can embark onto any IMPERIUM TRANSPORT model, even though the transport in question might normally only permit models with other Faction keywords to do so. All other restrictions apply normally, and INQUISITOR TERMINATOR models can only embark upon TRANSPORTS that specifically allow TERMINATOR models to do so.

If your army is battle-forged, the following rules apply:

No more than one INQUISITOR unit can be included in any INQUISITION detachment (that is, a detachment that only includes INQUISITION units).

If your army does not include any INQUISITION detachments, one INQUISITOR unit can be included in any other detachment without taking up a slot so long as every unit in your army (with the exception of those that are UNALIGNED) has the IMPERIUM keyword (and does not have the FALLEN keyword). That INQUISITOR unit does not prevent other units in your army benefiting from Detachment abilities (e.g. Chapter Tactics), and does not prevent abilities that require every model in your army to have that ability (e.g Combat Doctrines, Canticles of the Omnissiah). In a matched play game, that INQUISITOR unit is ignored for the purposes of the Battle Brothers rule (although all units in your army must still have the IMPERIUM faction keyword).
