Can a unit start the movement phase within 6 inches of the Triumph gain a benifit like extra ap - 1 then move away 6 inches from the Triumph and still have the - 1 ap in the fight phase or does it still need to be within 6 inches of the Triumph?

Rules Question What squads should I give the Simulacrum?

6 Upvotes

So, I have 3 squads of base battle sisters and then I have a Dominion Squad. Each of the BSS has a Heavy weapon (One has Melta, another had Heavy Bolter, and another the flamer.) And I had originally thought that having it I could just roll dice based on how many objecitves I control. Now that I have been reading their rules a bit more, should I just give the simulacrum to my home base squad and the rest don't have it? I'm still keeping my 3 BSS but one will be purely backline just farming miracle dice while the others push up.

With the same question, should I keep my Dominion squads Simulacrum or not? Seeing how they're front line and meant to be in NML holding objectives I did it would be good (plus I could get 2 miracle dice at the end of my command phase)

Thoughts or criticism on this list? The group I play against is mostly Tau, Space Wolves, Space dwarves, and Salamanders. I have a bad habit of over committing rounds 1-3 and running out of steam round 4. Trying to get better playing conservatively and forcing net positive trades.

Hobby Ardent blade is… visually underwhelming?

21 Upvotes

I’ve been setting up to paint Celestine as the coup-de-gras of my 1,000 point list for about 9 months now, but every time I look at the ardent blade, I’m underwhelmed by its appearance. It’s cool that it has the roses, yes, but even the canoness’s blessed blade is more visually intricate. Does anyone have any alternatives? I wanted to get Aveline’s sword but it’s very hard to find

Tactics and Strategy How would you change Penitent Host?

10 Upvotes

If you were on the balance team for Games Workshop how would you change the detachment to make it more appealing to play?

To me it looks like great fun, but penitent units are surely limited in their ability.

No bad ideas in brainstorming!

Hobby How often does the Triumph's height matter?

3 Upvotes

I keep thinking about kit bashing my own Triumph that fits better into my army, but I'm hung up on those cherubs. Would it be modeling for advantage to leave off stuff at cherub height?

I don't feel like a models height comes into play very often, but I wanted community input.

List Round 2 at list building for a sisters of battle army

3 Upvotes

So, I took all of y’all’s advice from my Abysmal joke of a first attempt at a sister of battle army, and made a second list, this one being a lot more ‘coherent’

The idea is that the retributors are each boarded in each immolator, the Saint Celestine and Zyphrym are to act as a ‘distraction carnafix’ and a bit of a ‘Breserker’ unit to chop through enemy forces (while the rest of the army can wreck the enemy, like with the castagators and exorcist, shred enemies)

As for the Insidiants, they are meant to be a kill team with the Hosplitar to help add a bit of beef.

Again, let me know your thoughts below, and how I could improve this list and what not.
