Thought I'd weigh in with the test scheme for my new SoB army, still working on the repressor, immolator and exocist conversions for my rhinos. And not 100% on going the white theme, but I've just finished 10,000points of Pre-heresy Dark Angels and a traitor guard army, so no more black or red.... though Grgobart's black and gold makes me really want to try that in 6mm now

I'm finally back on the path of the faithful after something of an extended sojourn and as the first stage of my penance I've just stripped the paint from 35 Sisters this morning in preparation for getting some real work done. I'm planning to follow that up by finally sorting out a session on working with green stuff at my local GW so I can get my Exorcists sorted out.

 

I've got a busy week ahead of me.

I have some work ahead of me.

All told there are about 500 Sisters in there, all ready to go. Plus 6 Immolators, 3 Exorcists, and a lot of SM vehices that could be repurposed.

 

I have yet to decide on a paint scheme.

So not 100% happy with the white scheme for the SoB, so complete armor change for my Bolter Babes.
Going with the classic look
 

3rd Party 

Onslaught Miniatures Sisterhood

So, any plans to actually play a game with them? If so, which lists?

 

Would you have anything to contribute to a discussion on higher level Sororita organization?

Australia has one of the largest growing most active eppic scenes currently. My club alone has 15 active players who meet at the end of each month to throw down, this is not my first epic army by a long shot :tongue.: (30k Heresy Dark angels, Knights, Titans, Vraksian Renegades)

 

At the end of January is Cancon, one of Australia biggest wargaming events for all systems and also the Aussie championships for Epic. 40ish players will be throwing down over 6 games over two days (Day three is a big bash 30k Heresy game). I plan to run the sisters at this event.

 

Currently i plan to run the Order Militant Adepta Sororitas V1.3, this has been cleared with the TO and I'll be proving feedback to help the list continue to develop

Picked the really common lists, didn't you?

... and now your planning to generously share your experiences and pictures of them in action you're going to take at the event, right?

Any plans on running the inquisition elements, particularly a Landing Party in the Arvus option?

Of course will be sharing pictures from the event.

As for the landing party, I'm not sure. I'll be painting them up as i like to have options to trial. And I'll be doing a bunch of test games with some friends leading up to the tourney.
But because the Arvus lighter options have them classed as skimmers and not aircraft.... probably not. I'd rather give them Valkyries instead. The unit though end's up as a bit of a points sink and I'm trying to keep my activation high (as i believe the touney meta will have changed from high War Engine count (Knights, Titans, shadow swords etc) to a a high activation count meta (12 -14 activation armies)

First list I'll be tryin to field will be:
 

Exocism 250 (5 Exorcists) 
Hunter 50 
 
Exocism 250 (5 Exorcists)
Hunter 50 
 
Lightning Attack Wing 150
 
Spaceship (Lunar Class Cruiser) 150
 
Penitence 175 (4 Penitence Engines)
 
Penitence 175 (4 Penitence Engines)
 
Mission 250 (8 Stands) [4 Rhino]
Canoness (SC) 100
 
Mission 250 (8 Stands) [3 Rhino]
Priest 50
Palatine 50
2x Immolators 50 
 
Coven/Domion 200 (4 Stands, Meltas) [2 Rhino]
 
Coven/Domion 200 (4 Stands, Meltas) [2 Rhino]
 
Repentance 225 (6 Repentia Sisters stands, 1 Leader) [3 Rhino]
Priest 50
 
Repentance 225 (6 Repentia Sisters stands, 1 Leader) [2 Rhino]
Priest 50
2x Immolators 50 


That gives me 10 actiavtions on the board, aircraft for harrasment and the Spaceship for hopeful titan removal

I've tried for some time now to get my local meta to be cognizant of things like 'activation count' but so far I've had no luck.

 

I ask about the Arvus partially out of curiosity of what you'd pick for models. Owning OEM Valks for the guard I'm sure an inquisitor could requisition them to oversee my sisters.

 

It kinda looks like you could fill the same MW close assault roll as the Repentia with the air-cav inquisitor in Arvii for the same points and have some ordinary shooting just in case

I could, but the Repentia have the faithful rule, the Inquisition does not. I kind of like the Fearless option. plus infiltrator

Does infiltrator actually work with being Rhino mounted? I guess it lets you set up the assault while disembarked?

That's the plan, I'd rather have them disembarked in case the transport blew.

If the aqulia lander had planetfall i might be interested and I'll test out a few builds with one definitely being the Inquisitor warband in Valks.

I also wil be playing around with seraphim eventually as well. Nice unit of 4+ FF will be great for Supporting actions

Just noticed the lack of 'Phim in your list. I've never regretted taking mine. They would be a straight swap for a Repentance.

I admit I will miss also taking my Warhounds, but the fact that they're my first pick just about every time is probably very telling about internal balance.
