I always use Inquisitors in the beginning of the game. Also, I split them. If you have enough leadership to have 3 Inquisitors your army, split them into three stacks, one in each. Fill up the latter two with f.ex. Bowmen and Swordsmen. Focus on high Hit points (Bears are good in the beginning). The reason for splitting the inquisitors into seleral stacks is their Holy Anger talent. Use that to generat Rage, and use the Pet Dragon Crushing Blow ability to kick back and kill the advancing enemies.

Later (still in Debir) when your leadership is at least 380, buy a Royal Thorn. This helps a lot since the Royal Thorn is a tough unit that early in the game and since it can create Thorns that you can send towards the enemy.
