My only real complaint about inquisitor is at 54mm the official models are fragile, and the scenery has to be largely home made. Converting is fun though, and the models can be bought very cheaply!
Don't get me wrong, I game in 1/35/54mm, but sci fi scenery at that scale is hard to come by. And there's only so many ruined European towns that can be scourged by the Inquisition!
I think Mordheim wins out because of the plethora of figures and terrain available.
Drop inquisitor down to 28, now you've got some competition!


Are both rule sets still free?

Both rulesets should still be free from the GW site.
It's easy enough to drop Inquisitor down to 28mm, that's what we've done in our little group, but for now I'd say go for Mordheim, will give you a lot more flexibility when it comes to buying warbands and is less rules-intensive.

Mordheim for me  So much more potential in 28 but moving Inquisitor to 28 had never even occured to me

I've even managed to put an Inquisitor warband together without using any GW minis, although I have scavenged some GW weapons and a servo skull from a gaming buddy.

[OSHIROmodels]

Aye, there's quite a few GW similar figures out there it can't be hard anymore 

cheers

Actually most of the figures have come from the Dark Age range rather than a clone GW range.

[OSHIROmodels]

Cool, they have some pretty good sculpts and style

Have fun, a point of advice, at some time you will probably find yourself getting bored with the standard scenario’s, even tough there are a few. Luckily there are a number of fan created scenario’s available, ones that won a competition for best written scenario’s no less. Those tend to be to specific for common use, but mixing them I’m allows a lot extra diversity.

Thanks for the help guys
