In my list, the Ordos militant aren't absolutely necesary, but they do make life easier/more interesting, because it allows for the ordo units to be chosen.
Maybe my main reason for allowing almost all the points to be spent on non-inquisition forces is that there is only one real inquisition formation; the storm trooper formation.
I can see why you allow only one ally. My dissatisfaction came from having oly 1/3rd of the army to be spent on it. In my eyes, an inquisitor may just as well go in without storm troopers or ordos militant, but with his requisitioned marines or guard.
Some notes on your list:
-Death watch terminators? I'm no specialist, but I thought death watch had no terminators, preferring the versatality of the normal power armour?
-I think excorcists should be quite limited and powerful. They're at the very least more revered than dreadnoughts or land raiders, so I think five excorcists per formation is a lot.
-Aren't those inquisition fortresses and the basilica a bit oversized? Keeping them titan-sized (8 DC max + some shielding) would keep them a bit less OTT.
-I'm not sure where, but I read somewhere the =I= stormtroopers had their own sentinels. Might be worth it to add them.
On your notes:
Can't they have rhinos? I thought they could. If tjhis is illegal in 40K, I'll admit having made a mistake.
I would think the inquisitor's troops are quite disciplined, under the scrutinizing eyes of the inquisitor. On the other hand, the marines and guard are a bit less near to him, and so both have In 2+.
The ordinatus is to show the Inquisitor can get literally anything from the imperium. It's only the mars class he can get, but still quite a weapon. My list lacked other war engines, so it could do with one extra.
