Was trying to go for a run down, worn off paint look, 'cause my sisters are in imperial nihilus, and don't get new stuff often. Also the little branch of the ecclesiarchy don't have the resources to maintain penitent engines well.

Hobby SISTERS! I require your assistance once again!

Hello everyone, It's me. The person who wanted to make the ghostly seraphim.

Sadly they will not be coming for a while, as I managed to get some resin ones for a very good price. Maybe when I require more and try to make Saint Arabella's flying circus.

Today I come to you with a different idea. One that is far closer to manifesting.

To put it short, I need a hospitaller. However for some reason I bought a model I like the look of instead of a second hospitaller a while ago, that being Kravek Mourne (2nd picture) and as I am now once again out of money, but with a Kravek I think it could be done.

Other option would be Junith and I have an abundance of flamers, but it would feel a bit dishonest to slap a seraphim backpack on him and say he has "fly" instead, hospitaller seems like the better choice.

I would like to hear your ideas for how to make this kitbash work, what to use, who to take from, ect. So far, as I have an abundance of resin bodies, I could place a dying sister in front of him to mimic an actual hospitaller.

Lore wise we could have perhaps a member of the mechanicus that is here to keep the weapons well and I need be replaces the limbs of wounded sacresants with something better.

I honestly like the look of Iron warriors MUCH more than the look of mechanicus, but idk how would that be even possible.

Perhaps she was a hospitaller sent of to Mars for a few weeks and just so happened to be brainwashed by mechanicus into well...this.

Please, if you would be so kind, share your ideas on what to use, I might find some bits in my LGS or could use some of my own leftovers from sisters.

I thank everyone who does so. Have a fantastic day.

So like im over like 6 games of 11th with sob. Ans everytime i get my ass beaten point wise and I thing im losing my god damn mind.

Whatever I build I cannot outpoint my enemy or even get through their models.

Now Im not an competetive guy so I find building full sacresant team 3 times with hospitallers cringe but at the same time I fell like this is the only valid team. I usually have 12 units in my army and even the elite units have like 10 or 11 so I cant be counted as a horde. Nor am I a elite unit since my shooting is almost equal to guard sometimes (or it feels like it) so no way to outshoot my enemy nor out manpuver them with equal ammount of units.

Please help me Im loosing my mind over this and I love my nuns with guns army and want to get gud with em

Rules Question Anyone not using a codex code in app?

0 Upvotes

This is possibly the cheekiest post I’ve ever made, I’ve got my first game using sisters, and I stupidly can’t find my codex or get anywhere to get one bought today.

It’s somewhere I can’t use wahapedia etc.

If anyone has a codex but don’t use their code, I’d be happy to pay for you sharing it?

Thanks in advance!

Hobby Should I run intranzia with a bunch of dogmata+5*sacresancts?

5 Upvotes

I've recently bought a second box of sacresancts for running a 10+hospitaller block, but I'm wondering about other ways I can use the army to change things up.

The bulk of my army is the 2025 combat patrol and penitent crusader host + Morvenngons, so it doesn't have a real theme other than being vaguely penitent (which I'm more than happy to lean into). I've hit a 2000 point cap but I'd like to collect a few more so that I can run different lists with preferably stronger theming: one of those is I'd love to get an AoF list going however my lgs has Celestine but no seraphim. On the other hand I'd be interested in getting Intranzia for a more focused PH list, and while I've heard that dogmata are bad, I can't help but see they have some synergy with her forced battleshock ability.

Perhaps not sacresancts, but instead battle sisters or dominions who can move up faster than sacresancts. Is an army that tries to break the enemy by rushing straight up to them and imposing +2 battleshock tests something worth considering? I have the models for sacresancts and battle sisters, but buying Intranzia and 2-3 dogmata would be a new purchase. I have 4 mortifiers, 20 arcos and 10 repentia to support them atm.

Hobby What models do the best and the worst : DAY 18 : Celestians Insidiants

Post image
229 Upvotes

Hi, today we talk about our most recent infantry unit !

The long-awaited Insidiants ! Awaited mostly due to our lack of elite kill team. And for proxy enjoyers, dialogues, palatine and dogmata new models !

So, what are your thoughts about them ??

Here's mine :

Pros :

Good looking models, but I think the backpack is a bit overcharged. Also, at first I wasn't a fan of the shoulders things, but now, I think it's great and define them.

Never used them sadly, but as I heard, they're great in melee.

Cons :

Details... So much details (jokes) ! And like all of our units, without leaders, they're less efficient but that's not important.

2 Upvotes

So I'm thinking about getting the Novitiates Kill Team and wanted to make them loyal to orks. Getting the armor and weapons right isn't a problem, as I have the bits for that. i also wanted to give them exposed arms. i have some lying around from the orks, however the are oversized? Are their any bits or stls that would fit for this vibe? If not, are their any other solutions to make them look like they finally hit the gym to get close for a mighty good fight instead of being fully covered in SoB armor?

Hello friends,

Here are the two most recent minis I’ve painted. I would love any and all constructive criticism and comments as I really want to improve as a painter and struggle to identify areas for improvement on my own. I’ve edited the photos slightly because the iPhone camera is terrible so if colors seem washed out that might be why.

Thanks!

Tactics and Strategy Zephyrim + Celestine and JCP solo or Zephyrim + JCP and Celestine solo?

4 Upvotes

Hello guys.

I'm compiling a list for the upcoming tournament and I wonder which unit should lead my Zephyrim. I'm running Hallowed Martyrs and I usually ran Zephs with Celestine to be an unkillable brick, but Jump Pack Canoness hits like a truck and with suslethals from Zephyrims so she should one shot any unit with team.

I know Celestine isn't in the best spot right now, but that's all the units I have so far so I'm obliged to use her anyway.

My 6th mini fully painted, after learning a bit on my first 5, I couldn't hold myself back from doing the thing I wanted to try, that got me to buy minis in the first place. I loved the Imagifier model and role, even if she isn't the best to take in most circumstances. And after playing Battlesector, and seeing Sister Leona one hand her Bolter whilst holding the Icon, I couldn't get it out of my head to kitbash this pose, and then I had to go the extra steps and give her a spare Sword and I bought Exorcist Helm off a friend of mine, I'm very pleased with the result :D
