WarhammerTV just made me shiver

A local player got hold of someones old Sisters. He airbrushed them red, calls them his Khorne Wh0res. A very large part of me wants Sisters to stay in metal without an update so we dont have to endure a fresh influx of heresy.

 

For my part I did offer to buy his army just so I could drop the models in some IPA and commence their purification. So far he hasn't taken me up on my several increasingly generous offers.

Another reason that it's (kind-of) nice to have the All-Female army be less available. Less people being weird about it.

I had the misfortune to play someone (twice) who told me exactly what their dark eldar army was going to do with my miniatures once I lost. Decided that I'd never play a tournament in that store again.

 

 

 

That's way out of line.  In that case I would make my distaste known and back up my army if they persisted.

 

I pulled somebody up last week for referring to my Cryx Satyxis Raiders as 'bitches', pointing out that I refer to his models as 'this gentleman' or 'that lady'.

I played kill team against a guy who, for the whole game, referred to "Sister" using that word that starts with a B . . . but I have to put up with a lot of jokes in poor taste when he's around.

eg: "alright, he's going to shoot that censored.gif "

It's kinda sickening. But I suppose they are heretics :P

I know it's off topic, but I just had to chime in.

Oh, and the Codex is gone from the US webstore.

In my opinion, the codex wasn't worth the money in the first place. I ended up getting the digital version and while it was the same size as my Space Wolves codex...50% of the pages were artwork. images of units enlarged far more than necessary, and quotes that took up a whole page. Seriously it was made to be 200 pages like other codices just to be more money.

Okay, to TRY to get this topic back on track, I'm going to post this:

 

BoLS Rumour Mill latest - 8th Edition AND Sisters are coming. SOON!

 

However, I'm going to be going through this topic and removing post as necessary. If yours has gone, that's why. No more off topic posts at all please, otherwise members are going to be closely acquainted with my Melta... =][=

I feel there was not a lot of substance and a rehash of other rumors. We All Hope , that they are coming. I am kinda disheartened to see our beloved Adeptus Sororitas being either the first codex of 8th or the last of 7th. Either way Sororitas  will be outmatched by the other 8th edition books. On the Flip Side, i am excited to see rumors about Sisters in general.

Par for the course with BoLS.

Indeed, but for keeping record, I added it.

Could the 8th Edition Starter be Sisters vs Necron! #joke

 

Or GW seese what Prospero does and makes a mix starter box.

 

1 Captain, 10 Marines 1 Sentinal and 5 Battle Sisters vs 20 Necrons an Overlord and 5 Necron controlled Orks.

If they were wanted to test the waters they could always do another boardgame set release.. maybe called "Return to Sanctuary 101" with Necrons vs Sisters. Have a couple of unique data slate formations of whatever all in plastic. Then release the full army a couple of months later.

Worked for Deathwatch overkill

 

.. maybe called "Return to Sanctuary 101" with Necrons vs Sisters.

There are a couple of existing battles to work it around, notably the fight(s) in the necron Obsidian Moon base from Hammer and Anvil.

 

Yeah, that's what I was thinking about

 

And it would be good full circle, the sanctuary 101 bit of fluff came from the first battle report with necrons and sisters and was such a one sided event it ended up in the histories

I have the white dwarf with the report in. The sisters managed about one kill per round and lasted much longer than they should of because a) the necron player didn't realise his warriors could plough through them in close combat until a crashed destroyer pilot resurrected and started to single-handedly slaughter the sisters and b) the scarabs all wiped themselves out by overkilling the immolator - if they had simply attacked the sisters they would have been literally impervious to their attacks (T8 vs S3) and would have crippled the sisters shooting with their disruptor zones.

 

Combined with the crons having about twice the points of the sisters and you have to wonder why the players thought it might go any other way.
