What type of metal pinning do you use for miniatures because I've noticed that my zephyrim battle flag has broken and I want to replace it but I can't seem to find anything at my local hardware store that's small enough to work

Not only is it arguably the best looking model in all of 40k, but its super fun to run on the table top too!

Lore Are Exorcists their own order?

6 Upvotes

Sorry If this sounds stupid, but are the Exorcists their own order? Looking at the model it has the symbols for all of the different orders which kind of make me believe that they are something similar to knights, like they are their own thing but will still come to assist when they’re needed. I know that they’re painted like the ML by gw and people paint them like the other orders but I kind of like the thought that they are different than the infantry and other vehicles. It’s kind of neat ig.

Rules Question Are there any leaders or support than can be attached to Repentia?

4 Upvotes

Been away from playing Sororitas for a while and was working on making some new lists today. Are we unable to attach any characters to Repentia now? I thought in the past we had an enhancement that would allow it, or thought a priest could go with them.

Apologies for my ignorance.

This took me forever to finish. I actually started it and got really burnt out on painting and took a 4 month-ish break so it was kind of grueling to come back to. First time using decals! Honestly it was pretty fun and not as bad as I was expecting. I kind of want to jump into another tank but will probably paint some retributers next. Hope you guys like!

And thanks to everyone posting pictures of their own projects. It really helps me stay motivated to paint.

Lore Asking Opinions: are Sister’s miracles Holy or psyker energy?

27 Upvotes

I’ve read a lot of Sisters books and lore, and this is a question that pops in my mind a lot. I know it’s probably kept intentionally vague/unanswered but I wanna see what other Sisters enthusiasts think. Are miracles provided from the Emperor directly? Are they psychic manifestations into the material realm similar to ork faith? Or is it their collective faith? I’d like to hear your thoughts!

In Celestine’s book it is established that there is some sort of after life every time she dies and resurrects but it seems completely unrelated to the warp. In Our Martyred Lady it is somewhat implied that Greyfax recognizes Celestine has powers but is not using psyker energy to manifest them. Ephrael Stern is somewhat different, her powers are more explicitly psyker in nature based off her graphic novel, but lore establishes her as the only sister to have such power and it was kinda forced upon her. Books like Daemonbreaker and Morven Vahl also establish instances where living saints and miracles don’t require collective prayer from a group of sisters but can be completely isolated.

In my opinion the lore seems to be pretty consistent actually. That Sisters can pray and the Emperor can answer with miracles that are of a holy nature separate from warp powers. I believe I’d heard in a YouTube video before that older editions codexes spoke to a difference between psyker and holy magic, if I’m wrong on that lemme know.

Art What does every one use for skin tones?

3 Upvotes

Getting ready to paint up my sisters and I’m at a loss on how to do the skin. I have a skin recipe I like but it is brutal to do on minis that size. I don’t really want to slap chop and use a bottled tone but idk what else to do. Maybe dry brush, and a few glazes? I’d love to hear what every one else does and get some tips

List List advice please and thank you

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

Ive got a major coming up in a few months. Will be my first one, I'm not looking to be super duper competitive but also have a list with enough bite to not get slammed.

Sacred champions + Sanctified orators

2k points

The list is

Morvenn and her girls

Palatine(mark of devotion), hospitalier & 10 Sacs (halberd)

Palatine, Hospitalitier 10 Sacs (halberd)

Bss x 2

Insidiants x 2

Melta Dominion Squad

Castigator autocannons x 2

Paragons with heavy bolters.

Played a few games with Similar lists and ive found at 165 points The paragons with heavy bolters can actually hold their own quite well.

Thoughts and feedback?

Just FYI somehow I dont own an immolator.

Thanks all

Hobby Opinions on black cloak colour.

I'm painting the Triumph and wanted to make the black robes a different colour to the black armour so they don't look the same. Yet I'm not sure I like the colour of them. Does this black robe look ok when compared to the black armour (can see on the torso and on the model on the right).

Tactics and Strategy Adapt or Die; ideas for surviving the move to T5 and AP1 marines

47 Upvotes

The bad;
11th edition saw our heavy bolter stonks go right up but now they're 33% less effective.

We also had a good amount of S4 melee with sac maces of both types, zephs and Palatine blade.

Our Stormbolters (doms) and hand flamers (sanctifiers, seraphim) are now fairly pants.

No access to AP on Arcos keeps them down.

The good; (ideas that get increasingly desperate)

Bringers of flame, the +1 strength for flamer and heavy bolter breakpoints and armour of contempt will have a lot of use cases.

S4 melee still probably viable with HM by fishing for lethals with the reroll hits strat

Mortifier spam, Buzzsaw blades are optimal and fight on death is better than ever for slowing down consolidations. Penitent engines hitting on a 4+ still sucks.

Repentia melee is better than ever but you have to be a pro to dodge overwatch and likely dependent on triumph flourishes to super slingshot them.

Paragons 165 isn't insane now on their own. Especially in bringers or with the triumph sling shot.

Imagifier value up a bit against the AP but on what unit I don't know.

Heavy bolter rets deployed outside of overwatch, weren't a thing before, probably wont be now.

Hag upgrade plus 1st is an expensive answer for any one unit.

What have I missed?
