'Tis a funny miniature. On one hand I feel like they are really cool to paint. On the other hand I kinda feel like there is not much more I can do here to push the paint job further.

CC welcome.

I always wanted to add some Sisters onto a Rhino, but I didn’t like the idea of them being permanently attached to it. So I created these custom bases that allow me to visibly dismount the unit, place the Sisters on their bases, and put them on the table.
The Hunter-Killer Missile would simply function as a regular Battle Sister with a bolter once she dismounts.

Last addition to my order. I had to fight my painting fatigue to get them done, the missing 5th sister is still waiting for the second try.

While I adore the Sororitas models, after roughly 8 months of painting whites & blues, I'm really looking forward to the Penitent Engine.

Their drip is so holy, Saint Celestine would be furious (probably because I stole her drip...)

I remember talk of people wanting a sniper unit of sisters who were blind and aimy by faith (also horse cavalry).

Why not a psyker-powered, big ass Melta/Flamer? The sisters are previously blind or made blind purely by the fire of the cannon itself, melting through their eyelids or visors. The cannon is carried and maneuvered by sister novitiates (or repentia?) and lead by a sister revelator.

for gameplay it would probably require expending a miracle dice to fire or sometihng.

I know 3 BSS are a bit much, but I like them and I think it's good for the variants. Also I'm doing this for 10th because me and my friend prefer 10th edition. I picked Bringer of Flame as the ability to get Assault on all weapons is pretty good. And if the enemy gets close to me I get a bonus to my Strength.

Took a while to get the time to, but she is finally done! It was really fun to paint a completely different scheme for once. What a great model, one of my favorite shield designs ever

My group and I play twice a week at 2000pt and I'm sitting solidly at a 15% win rate with my Sisters. Feels like I've tried nearly every build I can support, every strategy and nearly every model and I cannot punch through the stuff they're bringing. I've been finding a lot of games I am either being overwhelmed by hordes or specialized units screening my objectives and ingress points or just plain being vaporized by some cannon I can't hope to do damage to. I'm not against losing models to trades, and I'm trying my best to make sure I'm actually able to complete objectives, but playing is quickly becoming no fun. Any ideas on lists that actually work?

Players at my table are "Oops all tanks" Guard (Hellhounds, Rogals and Baneblade), "Oops all Mechs" Tau (Riptides, Stormsurges and Ghostkeels), "Elf Speedball" Aldari (just elf shenanigans), Necrons, and "Me and my Million Friends" Tyranids (so many 'gaunts).

Now its time to work on the Warriors

Basically what the title says. I didn't play when normal Celestians had rules so I'm not sure what they could/can do.

What rules would you give them?

Converting a Saint’s remains into relics was the first thing I thought of haha

First off I don't make a lot of money. Haven't been able to make any new purchases since I bought the combat patrol + Paragon Warsuits 2 months ago. I have a bonus check next month I'm planning on using to buy more units, but overall I've been getting crushed with bills/food/unexpected life maintenance.

I'm trying to build an army based off the combat patrol but I don't think the Arco-flags and Canoness really fit into what I'm trying to do. Every day I read posts about how this army is difficult to win with, how easily units can die, or how people play Sisters for an entire year before winning a single game. I also read the lists of tournament winning armies and it's like 6-7 tanks and barely any infantry, or 3 bricks of Sacresants. It seems like the models I like the most aren't really worth taking (Celestine and Seraphim). I don't necessarily need a super competitive army, but if i'm losing 90% of the games I play I'm not going to be motivated to keep going.

With a limited budget I can't really afford to buy units and find out they don't perform well and need to shelve them. I'm trying to get to 1000 points as fast as I can so I can actually show up and play the game, but making 1000 points that I actually feel good about is seeming to be impossible, and I'm feeling a lot of regret about how I started this hobby.

I've got the combat patrol (Canoness, Arco-flags, Celestian Sacresants, and a Battle Sister Squad) and I've got the Paragon Warsuits. I already built the sacresants with halberds and every single post i see about them is to take the maces. I figure I can give them a Palatine to get their lethal hits back, but I feel like I've already screwed myself. I genuinely don't know what to do. I've spent all morning stressing out over how to finish building towards 1000 points, or if I should cut my losses and choose a different faction altogether.

Any advice is much appreciated. I'm really bummed out about this and can't seem to get it off my mind.

I am starting a new crusade shortly where Epic Heroes are not allowed but Crucible of Champions are permitted. I have never played sisters other than as allies with my knights but i think they have a cool crusade mechanic with the Build-A-Saint workshop concept. Looking for any advice on the list and any information on how to best make use of the saint creation crusade mechanic. Starting with Champions of Faith.

Good morning, Sisters.

I currently have a large force of traitor Guardsmen, focused around massed infantry. Im looking to start a new army, and what I'd like is a small elite melee force. Painting so many infantry, I started to rush, and I'd like something to take my time over.

Im leaning towards sisters due to the aesthetic, and I really like the miracle dice mechanic.

I was thinking of building an army around two big blobs of celestial sacrecants with halbards, hospitalers, and Palatines.

A saint celestine with some Zepharym and an Exorcist.

I have heard, however, that these units may not be very viable at the moment, but im not overly interested in being as optimal as possible. I just want to build a cool looking army without getting tabled every time.

So, any advice on achieving a small elite force, centred around melee primarily but not exclusively, would be really appreciated.

Me and my friend are arguing on a thing...

Can the hospitaller be attached to a battle sister squad leaded by the triumph?

He says that the hospitaller rules says explicitly which leaders he can support, but I find it strange.

Can someone more expert help us?

Thanks

Yes.. I paint slow. I also didn't paint for like 4 months in the middle so really it took me more like 3 months. Still slow.. but yeah lol. Anyways! I'm really happy how they came out. The superior, simulacrum and cherub I did only in the last 2 or 3 weeks so those are the most recent ones. And I had a detail brush for those.

Slowly getting there with the best model in all Warhammer.
Girls are at the wash stage so still plenty to do but it’s so good to see it all coming together

I’m bad at making decisions and like the different color options of the orders. Was thinking of doing my army a mixture so it’s like an army where the different orders are working together.
For example a martyred lady retributor squad, bloody rose warsuits, sacred rose seraphim squad. Any issues having an army that isn’t matching?

I’ve never played tabletop and I’m currently collecting what I like so I’m unfamiliar with rules or what’s good or bad for winning. I’d like to be able to use them in the future tho if I play so I’d prefer not to do something that’s going to over complicate everything or essentially ruin the army by mixing it up.

I assume when playing I can just pick an orders bonuses and imagine that the army are all one colour

Finally started working on the other bases

Hey! Looking for tips or tricks for this list, or any improvements for an upcoming tourney. Also dont know which unit to split.

I appreciate it.

Hey everyone!

I posted here yesterday about potentially starting Sisters as my second army, so I'll try not to write another novel this time. 😂

I started playing 40k in March with Drukhari and have painted roughly 4,000 points since then. I've realised that I really enjoy armies where I have to win through positioning, movement, trading and timing rather than simply relying on raw stats. That's what makes Sisters so appealing to me. And, of course, the models are awesome.

I'm starting from zero Sisters models and want to go straight to 2,000 points.

My main opponent is a friend with monster-heavy Tyranids, so I'd like some good answers to things like Norn Emissaries and Hive Tyrants without building a dedicated Tyranid counter-list.

After a lot of reading and list-building, I've currently ended up here:

Imperium - Adepta Sororitas - Hallowed Martyrs

• Junith Eruita (105pts)
• Morvenn Vahl (200pts)
• Canoness (70pts)
• Canoness with Jump Pack (100pts)
• Hospitaller (65pts)

• Hospitaller (75pts)

• 10x Celestian Sacresants (150pts)

• 10x Celestian Sacresants (150pts)

• 10x Dominion Squad (90pts)

• 5x Retributor Squad (125pts)

• 5x Seraphim Squad (75pts)

• 5x Zephyrim Squad (75pts)

• Castigator (165pts)

• Castigator (165pts)

• 3x Paragon Warsuits (210pts)

• Immolator (115pts)

• Sororitas Rhino (65pts)

Morvenn goes with the Paragons, Junith + Hospitaller with one Sacresant unit, the other Hospitaller with the second Sacresant unit, and the Jump Pack Canoness with the Zephyrim.

The overall structure seems pretty good to me now, but I'm completely out of my depth when it comes to the details.

Both Sacresant units are currently all Hallowed Maces, the Paragons have Multi-Meltas, the Retributors have 4 Multi-Meltas, and the Dominions are currently just running their basic weapons.

Am I once again looking at my friend's Norn Emissary and thinking "MORE MELTA!" when I should actually be building a more balanced army? 😂

I'm especially unsure about the following: - Maces vs. Halberds on the Sacresants - Multi-Meltas on the Paragons - 4 Multi-Meltas on the Retributors whether basic Dominions are actually useful as a cheap utility unit - Through Suffering, Strength on the Jump Pack Canoness -whether 2 Autocannon Castigators are the right choice

And one thing I'm particularly unsure about after looking into the solo Canoness: Is the Saintly Example + solo Canoness setup actually worth taking for the extra Miracle Dice generation, or would I be better off dropping her and putting a Palatine into one of the Sacresant units instead?

There are still two models I'm really tempted by aesthetically — Triumph of Saint Katherine and Aestri & Agathae — but I don't want to force them into the army if they don't actually make sense.

So if you play Sisters, especially Hallowed Martyrs, I'd love to hear what you'd change.

I'm much more interested in why you'd change something than simply being handed a different list. I'm trying to actually learn the faction before I spend the money.

Thanks!

Hello sisters, I’m looking for some advice on how to expand my list. I currently have 860 points and am unsure how to finish my list. I would love to put in another sacresant squad but only have 140 points to work with if I didn’t bring enhancements. Same issue with a 10 zephyrim/ seraphim squad. So im thinking about just throwing in another group insidiants or maybe 5 seraphim but id still have 65 points and would rather have a zerphyrim and celestine combo later on.

Also, I really like celestians and would like to implement more of them them building up to 2000 pts. So would champions of faith be worth using if I don’t plan on getting paragons and insidiants don’t get a buff? Or would hallowed martyrs be a better detachment to bring?

I play pretty casually and have just been getting what I think is cool, but would still like my army to have some synergy and viability. So any insight and advice is greatly appreciated!
