*Furyou Miko Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Oh, I'm not talking about game rules, I'm talking about the fluff. I quite ejoyed using the Inquisitor rules to represent my allied guard colonel at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacinda Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Daemonifuge (if you go with the assumption that the possessed Sisters are just disguised daemon infiltrators like the one in issue #1).I never saw them as possessed. They were tortured, twisted and physically mutated/mutilated in every conceivable way due to their time spent around the Keeper of Secrets, but their minds remained faithful. They paid the price of physical corruption to gain the knowledge needed to defeat the Emperor's enemies. I actually never used inquisitors during that era... not sure if one would have added any value to the force.There was a huge benefit with taking as many Faithful units as possible. Inquisitors were not faithful, nor were the IST or marine allies. It was better to take a Palatine and more Battle Sisters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montford Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I loved being able to get up to 11 or 12 Faith Points in some lists :) Usually had 9 or 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitsHammer Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 BoLS is making claims about Sisters again (my $.02 in yellow): Via Birds in the Trees Sororitas Rundown: – R&D on the entire line is complete, and the range is all new in plastic. No . With an army whose only all plastic model is a Rhino with an alternate options sprue this isn't a big shock. Anyone could have guessed this.– 5-model combo-unit Sisters infantry kit Possible, but it'll need to come with a flamer, melta, storm bolter, heavy flamer, multi-melta, and heavy bolter to be worth the cost. Plus Superior upgrades. That's like 3-4 sprues depending on parts density and head options.– 3 model Sisters unit on 50mm bases kit I can't think of anything that needs a 50mm base, unless Repentia become a swarm unit or something.– 5 model Sisters unit on 32mm bases kit (different from the infantry unit listed above) Heavier armor Sisters or Seraphim perhaps?– Sororitas combo unit vehicle kit “A” kit Exorcist could definitely be either this or B. Likely would have an alt build because that's how GW rolls.– Sororitas combo unit vehicle kit “B” kit Hopefully an assault vehicle or a flyer. Likely this or A is a re-cut Immolator/Rhino kit for "reasons".– Sororitas Walker/Monstrous Creature vehicle kit Penitent Engine? Pretty much an automatic addition since the metal model is officially the worst model to assemble in the entire game now that there are no metal Dreadnoughts or Thunderfire Cannons. I'd be surprised it it wasn't a dual kit to make 2 different models though.– 3 clampack Sororitas characters Priest (who is available for 3 armies so is a big one to update), Canoness and either a new HQ option or an updated or new SC. I kind of want a SC Canoness, but a plastic Celestine could be awesome. These are on ice and only await release scheduling by GW. So basically "whenever, I promise" These rumors are rated: PROBABLE coming from known reliable sources. ...side note: i know for a fact that plastic Sisters are coming and sculpts/moulds are finished and pre productions are underway though a release date is still well off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Nightfury is worth considering but we'd need more info from Hastings, Harry and more...reputable sources before I actually put any stock into this. Better yet, PHYSICAL :cuss ING PROOF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montford Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I'd love to see these new miniatures this year. However, I am treating these rumors the same way I treated rumors in the Army: it will happen when it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Furyou Miko Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 This kind of rumour is more a "pay attention to me!!" than an "I have information". Besides, they're the same rumours we had this time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reienkyo Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The rumors years ago says: plasma guns for sisters, plasma tank, new peniten engines options, and more boxs than the new rumors says, if its this new rumor ( i hope its true and i believe in NIghtfury´s )its a lie or not, we can only wait.

march10k Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 ~shrug~ I don't see myself expanding beyond the infantry models I already have (~50 battle sisters, but not enough to make more than 4 squads of 10, due to special weapons...like 5 stormbolters, blech, 2x10 repentia, 7 seraphim, a canoness...), except possibly more seraphim...battle conclave...any new type of infantry...or use my metal sisters as battle sisters in all cases and plastics for dominions...wait, maybe I do need more sisters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Danse Macabre Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I have spent the last 4 weeks painting 25 sisters as and when I could and I still have about 100 on top of that... I need no new models, just GW assurance of a continued backing as an army that can be played. You would think after nearly 20 years we would of finished painting... Suppose perfection takes time.

AdmLancel Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 It is oddly specific in a lot of places, but I find it weird that it speaks of the size bases without explaining what they are, but maybe that's just me. Regardless of that, I don't know if I'd put much faith in it. Most of that is obvious, anything that doesn't come out on release may be called as delayed for a future release, and they could be released any time in the next two years and this rumor could still be pointed at and regarded as accurate. Quite a large window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I'd take bland if it meant we got something tangible! We have no idea of knowing if this is just new bits on top of an existing set, or the new and real deal. That's the problem with a rumour mill so long in the tooth - too many signals in the air. So we do what we always have; wait and see. Personally I'm a bit sick of the "something is coming at some point" shtick as it means a whole lot of nothing. I'd rather not be bothered and find out the week before when GW tries to sell WD to us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
