Sisters... How many?

I remember reading somewhere that every sister was an orphan at birth. No idea how that affects the numbers.

 

Current fluff has them as orphans of Imperial Officials (officers, ranking nobles, ect). Of course the Imperium being what it is, it's just as likely some aren't and are just passed off as being of such a pure bloodline. And then there was the Rogue Trader's daughter who joined a convent of Sisters in Crossfire (an Arbites novel).

Another bit: if you beat the Dawn of War: Soulstorm campaign as the Sisters then the Ecclesiarchy boots up six cities in the Kaurava system, one for each of the Orders Militant. Part of the epilogue, the narrator says, "pilgrims and many millions of sisters gathered there for prayer."

Yes, but Soulstorm also has a giant daemon wearing knock-offs of the Armour of Saint Katherine and carrying a knock-off Argent Blade, both sized for a small titan, with actual flappy wings as its "Living Saint"... and gives the Sisters Lightning Interceptors... and has Immolators that are not transports...

You forgot the part where they build Power generators across the valley from the enemy or on a Warp-tainted planet or even need a forward base in the first place =P

Very fun game though, and the fluff can be called "aproximative" at least.

I'll stick with Fulke's numbers though, although i'd say 0.1% rather than 1% for the first number, lol

Then i get 1 Billion. I'm fine with that.

And 500 sister a year, errrmm... I'll go find the quote about how there is no canon in 40K biggrin.png

mostly these are adjustments for an RTS context rather than a tabletop one, to achieve parity between the armies

 

I thought it was silly that Celestians couldn't get into a Rhino though
