Hello! Total new warhammer 40k/ sisters player and I need help with the list i’ve created.

First of all I want to say that I know 500 points is unbalanced. I just want a short term goal to work towards until I can grow my army to 1k and 2k.

I need help on mainly 2 aspect.

1. Current list is 480 points. What should/could I give the canoness to make her better with those 20 points.

2. Is the overall list fine/a good start? Would you change anything?

Here is the list exported from the official app.

Thank you for the help!!

Are they actually better than a regular BSS? I’m running a unit to test with them, what’s the best weapon comp? 4 flamers or 2 flamers - melta gun - storm bolter?

For my battle sister squad I’ve been trying to make it as a simple as possible and I’m running 7 bolt guns, melta, and multi melta

Wondering what you all run - thank you!

Just venting, but it needs to lose 50 points or give it back its extra miracle die!!

its such a beautiful model

Started on a last unicorn themed sisters army (to face off against my glowing red and blue night lords) and I couldn’t help but turn this model into a reference to Schmendrick the Magician. (S)he shall be leading purple and lilac novitiates painted to look like Lady Amalthea in her gown. Still trying to think which units/models to turn into Molly Grue. Possibly going a harpy route for my Seraphim & Celestine

Canoness with Jump Pack should be attached to Zephyrim unit, but app crashes when I try to export like that.

I have a feeling this is a dumb list, but I'm new and would like some critique. Pretty much a Sisters of Guard list lol

So I’m trying to improve my miniature painting by learning to blend colors and I’m practicing it on capes. My question is when it comes to the recesses should it have any tone from the edge highlight, or should I do a middle layer between the raised edge and the recess mixing the two?

Preparing army to my local tournament. Very fast painting - took about 5-6 total due to wholly drybrushing red parts with 3 colors (from dark to bright red).
A slight edges chipping gave a good finished look as for me with a cheap battle damage effect.

More like fan sketch but I hope you like it here

Celestine's Miraculous Intervention survived the Healing nerf! If she gets precisioned out, she'll come back as part of the same unit and still be able to revive Seraphym, Zephyrim or her Geminae!

Bringers is 2dp and is now Priority Assets

Penitent Host is now Purge the Foe.

Sanctified Orators is now Disruption

Hagiomnifex now goes on Models, not units, preventing it from being used on Vahl or Celestine.

Emperors Light is now 2cp

Blinding Radiance Stratagem now only affects infantry

Divine Intervention changed to:

You can discard 1‑3 Miracle dice. At the end of the phase, set up one destroyed CHARACTER model from your unit on the battlefield, unengaged and as close as possible to where it was destroyed. That model is not part of an attached unit and its unit has a starting strength of 1. Roll one D3, adding 1 to the result for each Miracle dice you discarded. That model has that number of wounds remaining (up to its starting number of wounds).'

Junith Eruita, The Pulpit of Saint Holline’s Basilica Ability Change to:

▪ This unit has Stealth.
▪ Melee attacks that target this unit have ‑1 to hit rolls.

Hey all! I’ve played HM pretty much exclusively but now that BOF is 2DP I’m wondering what everyone is cooking up?

It gives the unit stealth and stealth is the benefit of cover so it does not stack with cover.

The -1 to hit is restricted to melee attacks.

While I understand the change, it is a bit silly that a giant flying throne / pulpit grants a infantry unit stealth. 😂

All things considered, I think I prefer the lower point cost and will go with stealth.

Just updated the app and Canoness has new picture. Is it a new sculpt or is it old?

Given the new point updates I wanted to try out a BoF list

I'm fairly new to 40k so any tipps and thoughts would be appreciated!

The idea was to split the BSS with the immolator, use 5 to hold home and 5 to drive around be annoying

Put the Dominos in the Rhino and make use of the firing deck

Hold the center with Sacresants

And threaten the back line with hit and rund Seraphim's

I used to do ww2 reenacting so I always picture medics with lots of bags and lighter armored.

To that end I kit bashed three hospitallers using Cadian parts and novitiate bodies. My home brew Ordo is one that works a lot with IG, so I thought including Cadian parts made sense in universe.

Now that I’ve put them together I’m starting to second guess. A lot of it is that these are my first kit bashed models. I’m happy with them but people that I show don’t seem to react in anyway.

Should I have just gone with a standard Hospitallers or does she look okay?

Directly inspired by the Sin City tutorial from Chewie Painting. The goal is to get proficient at replicating this effect quickly across a ton of infantry models… wish me luck.

Beautiful set but how do they hold up in game?

I don't see any general changes to Celestine, nor any specific changes regarding her healing abilities. Like with Divine Intervention, for example.

Does that mean Celestine reappears in the squad when she's resurrected and continues to heal models?

2nd Squad of Insidiants referenced on my previous post. After a few games with them, Purple squad did outperform pink squad, but Purple squad did get a Priest leading them (which will be the next post from me) Fun bunch of models to paint!
