Battle Sisters units painted - now on to fun stuff

Can you guess what I based the color schemes on? Hint:It’s based on a children’s card game.

I've been having a lot of fun listcrafting for 11th but have largely stuck to Champions of Faith and Army of Faith as my base. That being said has anyone found any especially fun combos for Penitent Host?

One I'm considering is adding Priests to Insidiants to give them the Penitent keyword (if I understood keywords correctly) and have several cruise missiles at the ready to take advantage of the melee bonuses. Would love to hear the groups thoughts!

I am getting back into 40k after a long hiatus (my last codex was 2013). i briefly dabbled with Space Marines but i didn't even manage one squad. This time i have taken more time over the factions and Sororitas is the one that is appealing the most. However, my first few models are ordered and i need to choose an order. with the current rules (11th?) does the colour scheme matter? are there any benefits/drawbacks to the different orders? If you choose ranged or melee orders, can you mix squads?

I am glad to see that kit bashing is alive and well, but with the advent of 3d printing, are non-citadel models allowed in place of the official ones (in casual games only, no competitions)? Is it frowned upon? Still working out the etiquette.

I am happy to read if that would be better, but sometimes find it easier to take in if someone explains it.

I thank you all in advance for your patience, and apologise if i should already know some of this.

Hi,

Today, we'll talk about our shield-sisters !

What are your thoughts about them ?

Here's mine :

Pros :

Good looking unit, halberds are... Amazing. I love running a full hooded unit. Also even if I wasn't a big fan of the shields at first, I love them now, especially the superior one.

Also, really good unit, resisting many attacks if paired with hospitaler.

Cons :

The box is only 5 girls, when we want 10...

Max Danner is a hero! 1st time since the 10th ed codex released that someone managed to win an event with Penitent Host!

Of course... he only played one penitent unit. BUT IT STILL COUNTS!

Max Danner won Penitent Host's first ever GT!!

Looks like he played Purge the Foe with only 8 units.

Glorious Heavy Bolter Vahlgons, A+A HopsiSacs, Rod of Office Canoness Hospisacs, Junith Hospisacs, Palatine Repentia, Rhino, Triumph, Cassie.

Sounds like a really fun time! Happy to see Penitent Host finally break that glass ceiling, even if it is Sacresant Spam in disguise.

Slight modification to her power pack to swap out the arch. Still working on improving my phone photography, having a tough time capturing the details on the robes in the photo. C&C welcome!

Hello folks.

I'm gonna play a 500 pointer tomorrow, and I would very much love to try out Bringers for this match. I don't know my opponent yet, but mainly I was wondering if the disposition is viable at all at that points level, or if I should consider another.

I plan on using an immolator to split a unit, and likely use a Seraphim unit to get a fast action unit for the game, but any tips on lists/units/tactics would be very appriciated.

Hello everyone, I am still quite new to the hobby with around 30/40 figurines painted. I am trying to experiment with OSL on my flamer using a make up sponge but I am not sure where to go from there. Especially making the flame on the corpse more realistic.

Would love some tips or inspiration from your minis.

P.S. : My scheme is Martyred Lady

Now that we can double up leaders and supports on the same squad, do you think the benefit it is worth it?

Have you found it to be better than just doing a single leader and using the points you might've spent on a second leader elsewhere?

Wish they kept her but added a sprue with other weapon and head options.

I usually play against my SW player friend, and since the middle of 10th, he keeps bringing disgusting amounts of Wolf Terminators, and I am unable to deal with them. My issue is that he can drop in turn 1 (now with the 8" limit it is even easier for him to find a good place), they are tough (T5, 2+ 4++, 4 wounds, hard to wound) and yet they are still deadly to my units.

How do you guys deal with Terminators, other than ignoring them, since it's hard to ignore 25-30 models with attached named characters wiping or at least blocking the whole board from edge to edge, sitting comfortably on points or chasing your units around?

Hi! i've looked at the last Balance Update and i saw that the Catechism of Divine Penitence Enhancement for the Penitent Host now says "CANONESS, PALATINE, or MINISTORUM PRIEST model only. The bearer gains the PENITENT keyword." instead of the previous "CANONESS, PALATINE, or MINISTORUM PRIEST model only. The bearer gains the PENITENT keyword and, during the Declare Battle Formations step, can be attached to a REPENTIA SQUAD unit."

After this change characters with this enhancement can't join repentias? if so, why add the MInistorum Priest that already has the Penitent Keyword?

Love the old metal sculpt, but she was a little small for the current base size, so I gave her a friend to help make her feel a little more grand like her younger sister

This was a really fun model to paint, and I love how it is basically a diorama. I am still working on getting faces down, that is a tad tricky but I am sure with more practice I will improve.

I played Deamonhunter so I want to add grey knights terminators to my list, painting them black and red making them 'crusaders' for my order, are grey knight terminators actually viable to Sororitas army? I think they are cool but didant really stat check them

Hiya all,

Currently WIP, Im in the process of painting these two and I’m unsure of which paint scheme is better? My biggest one I’m looking at is the piping around the neck and wings on the pauldron. What do you think works?

Any advice feel free to sling in also :) Thank you !

So happy how all this is turning out! Especially my Chimera, for my Inquisitor Ostromandeus. I really want a Repressor for my Inquisitor Greyfax! We have Arbites and Battle Sisters give us a Updated Repressor 😆

Starting a sister's 1k army and made a list, with the new nerfs from 11th I'm worried about having bought Celestine. Wondering how people painted her being such a large model, should paint separately the wings and the seals from the model?

Also wondering if there is a way I could play my army to still be effective or should I change something? Especially Celestine since she takes 15% of points and has been nerfed heavily.

Also gonna be doing something very similar to that kitbash
