When you have to explain that you haven't allied with grey Knights and they aren't modified dreadknights, but penitent engines...to which their blank faces make you pull out the old white dwarf feature article which you give over for them to read up on.

Grey Knights are Warp-tainted witches and Heretics!

Before the 5th Edition Codex came out, these words would be unthinkable and heretical.

 

[sarcasm]Thanks a lot, Matt Ward.[/sarcasm]

 

Then lucky for you, they are STILL unthinkable and heretical, Matt Ward not withstanding.

Actually, the heretic part came from Counter's GK novels and Alaric. :p

 

And they are witches.

You look at your parking lot of Rhino Chassis vehicles and have an internal struggle based on whether or not you have to many or not enough.

The answer is: There is never enough! :happy.:

 

You know you're a Sisters player when you decide to get a small detachment of Legion of the Damned, but to stay within your own rule of ensuring that every model in your army is female, go and buy more Sister models (a third Canoness for the Sergeant, a three pack of Sisters, a Melta Sister and a MM Sister) and start looking up on how to effectively use Nihlakh Oxide! :happy.:

 

I still have to start on my female version of Jacobus...

... your own rule of ensuring that every model in your army is female...

When you have modeled female priests (including a female Jacobus:wink: ), female Crusaders and some Gals with lasguns (who over the years have been Fratris Militia, Inq. Stromtroopers, Henchmen, allied IG, etc.).

As for further allies, some (unfortunately unfinished) female Servitors and a female Vidicare Assassin.

And even though the Death Cult Assassins are female to begin with, you went out to search for alterantive models, not only to have more than two poses, but also to get less "dark eldary" and more "ecclesiarchy" looking ones.

My concern is not whether or not I have enough Rhinos, but whether or not I have enough HEAVY WEAPONS.

 

Time to buy some Leman Russ battle tanks, paint them in the colors of the Order of my choice, and write rules to explain these are ADEPTA SORORITAS vehicles, with Ballistic Skill 4- NOT Astra Militarum vehicles from an allied detachment.

You accept that plastic is never gonna come

Nonsense. That's a quitter thing. The Faithful know our time will come eventually.

 

That's why we're called the Faithful.

....you keep feeling the call to write a series of Sisters stories while elbow deep in other writing projects.

 

 

That's not respect, that's a white knight complex. >>


Hey we both got badly hurt by that books fluff atleast the sisters didn't have dragon cutting his name into their main guys heart

 

 
Mortarion's Heart actually does a good job explaining that. Draigo was armed with the primarch's true name (the one the Emperor meant for his son) and that had severely weakened the primarch allowing Draigo to carve the name of the previous grandmaster (Linus Geronitan) into his heart (said name divined to be the name that could hold power over the Primarch) yonks ago.

 

Basically it plays out far better than the summary for the event sounds.

 

Also great fun hearing the Primarch call Draigo "little witch".

 

On a slightly different note, Grey Knights kill just about anyone who isn't a Space Marine or an Inquisitor who even hears the word "daemon". Killing Sisters isn't a surprise, and it's my personal head canon that they honored with the blood symbols they wrote so that the Sisters could continue to serve the Emperor in death.

 

 


 

In 1997, I started with Necrons because I couldn't buy any Sisters anywhere.

 

In 1999, I started Eldar because the Necrons didn't have a 3e list and I couldn't buy any Sisters anywhere.

 

In 2004, I stopped playing.

 

In 1011, I started Sisters. I've dabbled in other armies since, but I get bored of playing them after a couple of months. I've never gotten bored of my Sisters.

 

 

In 2004 I almost started Sisters, but was persuaded to start Marines instead. I eventually got into them in 2011.

Snap.
It's a hard call to ignore. I'm 15k+ words into a story and keep thinking about the one I want to write about the Sisters instead.

I have two that are languishing in the darker parts of the Fan Fiction Section. Next week, they will see the sun (well, light, well...) again :happy.:

 

Rather than double posting...

 

You know you're a Sisters player, when you spent all day at work idly trying to work out approximately how much it would cost to buy the models required to have an entire Commandary (200 ish models?), roughly how big my Order is (and will ever be. It'll never become one of the big Orders...)

 

:blink.: I need help. Yes...help! :laugh.:

You know you're a Sisters of Battle player when, upon learning your favorite Sisters of Battle models are no longer available from the Games Workshop web store, you DESIGN and MOLD YOUR OWN, as Raging Heroes' owners did.

You know when you're a Sisters of Battle player when you've heard about that kickstarter so many times that it makes you physically ill to hear about it yet again.

You know you're a true Sisters player when the Raging Heroes sculpts make you cringe at the idea of some horndog trying to use them to represent Sisters.
