You know you're a Sister of Battle player when...

[ERJAK]

YKYaSoBP when xenos and chaos players be losing their $#/? Over custodes getting models because they're sooooooo neglected and unloved and the imperium gets everything and 'a handful of models from our huge line are almost 20yrs old; who could even imagine such a travesty?!'

 

And you're just over here like 'Somebody gonna need to plough this forum ta get all these snowflakes outta here.'

[Servant of Dante]

To be fair, they have a point, given that those sculpts are some of the oldest still being sold. The Sisters line is an outlier in its age . . .

I did and do agree on the whole and had a lot of sympathy for Xenos players. They have gotten shafted pretty hard in favor of loyalists and chaos and absolutely do deserve updates to the older part of their ranges.

 

Then the lashing out, directed at SoB, started and it made me a bit angry thus that comment.

 

I actively want Xenos armies to get new stuff and don't even mind waiting in line, but some of the comments make it sound like Sisters are meant to be (not just 'are treated like') second class citizens. And that does make my blood boil a bit.

And that's how you know you're a true Sisters player ;)

Custodes getting anything before Sisters made my blood boil...

...you derive amusement by taunting Marine players about how bad their factions is at not falling to Chaos (basically rubbish really).

Even when they don't actually fall to chaos, they still end up bumbling along into whatever scheme Chaos cooked up.

True enough. For the galaxy's finest warriors/tacticians/ect they seem to be pretty rubbish when you count how many times they fail at being everything they're supposed to be.

 

Heck, a good number of them would just as quickly kill Imperial citizens as they would the enemy.

Especially the Grey Knights.  According to the fluff, Armageddon would have taken fewer casualties if they had just let the demons take over the planet.

...when you actually like the new Custodes army because:

Power Armor - check!

Love for the Emperor - check!

Psykers - not check!

I have the disturbing feeling this statement is true, regardless if you're being sarcastic or not.

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Your idea of a "combat shield" is the body of the Astra Militarum guardsman who told you to "get back to the kitchen."

 

Sister (gripping the Guardsman by his coat collar as she charges towards the enemy, combi-flamer in one hand): "The battlefield is my kitchen! Enemies of the Imperium are what I cook!"

 

Guardsman (as a World Eater charges towards them): "Mommy!"

 

Sister (slamming the Guardsman's body in the World Eater's face to stun the traitor, allowing her to set the World Eater on fire): "The Emperor is who I serve!"

Believe in the Emperor's Divinity.....NOT CHECK!

 

Fetch my purging bolter.

[Polak]

Now this might be a shocker....but hear me out

 

You are a true SoB player if you do not wish new fancy plastic models, but have a full old school metal army that you will always be loyal too! It's a sign of devotion! Part of the sisterhood of few, who started with sisters and kept on with sisters despite the years of neglect!

 

I fear how mainstream the sisters will become with a new plastic range (though I must admit, the new celestine has replaced my old metal one, which has been more of a canoness with jump pack to begin with.)

I'd rather not feel like an elitist just because I have old models and instead enjoy sharing the joy of the army with as many people as possible.

You know youre a sisters of battle player when plastic siaters come out and you dont need to buy any.

You know youre a sisters of battle player when plastic siaters come out and you dont need to buy any.

...but you buy them anyways so you can double your already Apoc sized army.

Ykyasobpw: you lament the name change to the more easily copyrightable 'Siaters of Battle'.

[Zaemie]

Ykyasobpw: You see the wall of clocks in the latest GW video and know that one is for Plastic Sororitas before you read the labels.

[Servant of Dante]

Ive said for a while that I’m not super excited for plastic sisters, but I’m not going to bemoan their arrival (unless I see sculpts and actually don’t like them :P ) because, as Fulkes said, that’s an elitist attitude that just isn’t productive or conducive to a healthy hobby.

 

Wait, was there actually something from GW about plastic Sisters?

[taikishi]

You know you're a Sisters of Battle Player when you repeatedly pause said video to see the exact time on the Sisters' clock...

 

The clock for Sisters was 7 minutes until midnight

Nothing said, just teased. That said, it's not completely accurate because if it was there would be a guy whose sole job it was to keep cranking the clock back to midnight constantly.

[Purifying Tempest]

They have a guy whose job it is to set the clock back 5 minutes whenever plastic sisters are mentioned anywhere.  You're welcome, we're back a solid 5 hours just from that teaser alone.

 

Games Workshop has you!

That clock is probably DECADES behind in time by now.

 

Though maybe he'll drop it someday (and in fact when plastic Sisters DO come they need to have another broken clock video).

 

...ykyaSoBpw your first reaction to being sick is to purge Nurgle.
