calypso2ts Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I still think if you run her with Celestians you need 2x Melta on the Celestians and to drop the Plasma Pistol. If you are planning to assault, put an Eviscerator on the VSS and the Canoness. Don't forget to give your Canoness a book.

calypso2ts Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Save the points on the VSS in the Celestians squad though, she Canoness cannot leave them even if she wants to when they are taken as a retinue.

andrewm9 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Save the points on the VSS in the Celestians squad though, she Canoness cannot leave them even if she wants to when they are taken as a retinue. Taking the vet is the only way to get another power weapon or eviscerator into the squad. You also get another attack. A Vet Celestian is actually cheaper than a Battle Sister Vet Superior for the points. I guess it depends on what you want you squad to do IMO. The only reason to take the Veteran Superior is for more wargear options.

andrewm9 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 all my squads are led by a veteran sister superior and my canoness has a celestian bodyguard(it just feels fluffy..) thanks for all the help.. I'm the same way myself. Besides I'm unlucky enough where I always end up failing at least 2 saves on a 2+ against STR 6 or better weapons so a retinue is good. My probelm is that I splurge on my Canoness and her retinue. I usually spend 455 points on the entire thing with a Repressor transport fitted with extra armor. When I bring it to bear properly on the enemy though they usually feel the pain. My squad looks liek this Canoness with blessed weapon, mantle, cloak, inferno pistol, BoSL, rosarius (its saved my bacon plenty of times), frag grenades retinue (9 sisters in it total) has Vet with plasma pistol and eviscerator Flamer Heavy flamer Simulacrum Imperialis Sacred Banner They also have frag grenades. They ride in a Repressor with extra armor Its pricy but effective.
