Schertenleib Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'm thinking about adding a SoB unit to my Space Wolves Army. What one unit would you recommend? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173011-sob-allies/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prathios Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 That would be hilarious. They would get along so poorly. Sisters don't much like marines in general and aberrant chapters like the wolves or blood angels would be especially difficult for them to get along with. I think someone should do a comic strip. As for which sisters to ally with? It doesn't matter a good deal they are all very much alike. I always liked the Bloody Rose.

number6 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 You can't go wrong with Seraphim. They are, IMHO, the best jump troops in 40K. They even have a superior version of the Hit-and-Run USR! And whether you give the unit inferno pistols for melta goodness or flamers -- or both! -- you'll have a brilliant little unit capable of putting on the hurt up close and personal. IMHO, you'll get even more mileage if you put an eviscerator on the VSS, but doing so does get a little pricey. Use that faith point wisely!

jeffersonian000 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 To go along with Number6, If you have the points you should also include a Canoness with Jump pack and either a blessed weapon of eviscerator. She will add 2 more faith points (3 if you include a Litanies of faith) and act as an excellent monster hunter.

Eltnot Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 The above mentioned are good advice. Just had a random thought depending on wording of the New Space Wolf codex. It was rumored the Grimnar gave his force fleet. If the wording were to include allied units as well as marines, a unit of Arcos could get very quick. 6(Move)+D6(Hole Rage)+D6(Fleet)+6(Assault)=14-24(Ouchy!). I'll go back and bury the rules lawyer in me now. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173011-sob-allies/#findComment-2045464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I've always found uses for Battle Sister Squads, Seras and Dominions (especially now in 5th, with flamer template galore!), a Canoness can work well too! It really depends on how you use your army, since I mostly run my Marines as mechanised and the SoB do that very well. If it's just a single unit though, Seras would serve you well as mentioned and would look cool too.
