General Questions re: balance and activity

[ezrakainus]

Hey there, just picked up Inquisimunda and I'm loving it. Yet to play a game, really, but I'm giving a fairly deep glance into the rules, few things have bothered me.
1) Rule clarity. I'm not entirely sure what "select from the expanded armory" means, and whether or not I need to purchase items when it says so (Smugglers, Hereticus Radical). Is that in reference to the bazaar?
Also, is there a chart that displays all the USR's?
2)Balance. I understand that Giant Killer and Underdog are meant to offset certain allies, but I just think that (up to) 3 space marines is a bit much, even if it is rare. I also can't understand how Radical Hereticus is balanced with puritan malleus and puritan hereticus. I'm never one to blindly trust rules, so if someone gives me a reassurance of balance, I'll accept it. Also, why do Arbites have 1000 points to start with, yet don't gain any of the incredible benefits or free stuff that other 1000's (kinda) get?
I'm seriously looking at overhauling the ruleset for allies and starting cost.

I'm curious, did you ever end up going ahead with your overhaul? You brought up some good points regarding rules/balance clarity.

To answer both your questions, the general attitude on these forums in the past to rules queries, etc is to just go ahead and make changes as you see fit. There's no real set in stone direction to this supplement, remove or add to it as you see fit to suit your gaming tastes.

Nice to see a little activity!

Hey there,
Yes, I did complete my overhaul. You can find it here: inquisimunda.proboards.com/threads/recent/77
