Brothers!

How do you rate Inceptors?

I’m midway through building out my CF 2nd Company list, where I’ve decided to interpret the “Shieldwall” a little more literally than it is probably intended and made the army very Gravis heavy, and I’m wondering how Inceptors go? I’ve never used them in my other SM armies as they didn’t fit their thematic fluff, but I feel like they could fit the bill as my Assault Squad option!

I hear that they’re overpriced for what they do, but that doesn’t worry me too much - I’m not looking to win the meta, just play with an army that feels right!

Thanks in advance ✊

This may be heresy, but has anyone here added company marking for their Fists? I’m considering adding a company number on the left knee to help me keep things organized.
