Atrus Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 The whole "Quick to anger" for bloody rose makes me think of an inverse of scripture "swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger/wrath". Makes me wonder if thats going to be a recurring thing gw will try to throw in. Im hoping im reading too much into it because that could get real cringe worthy if not done decently. Shrine fortification that isnt a bombed out ruin would be cool. Intact building from gw would be cool full stop. Get bored of fighting in ruins all the time. Would love to build up a decent city and fight through the streets.

Lord Raven 19 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I would love to see Celestians be able to select from Melee, Ranged, and Pistol wepons. That way I can have a melee squad. That or an option to take Imperial Guard super-heavies but be able to increase the BS by 1 due to our superior training. (I like the Macharius models so much!) Why is everyone jealous?

CaptainMarsh Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I don't think Sisters should have a Super-Heavy of their own, but if they did, a walking cathedral sounds fun.

ERJAK Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I don't think Sisters should have a Super-Heavy of their own, but if they did, a walking cathedral sounds fun. I absolutely want a Superheavy, the crazier the better! Also, the new stratagem will be amazing if they let the Seraphim Superior take a hand flamer or inferno pistol as well. Not so much otherwise.

CaptainMarsh Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Many good applications. Four Dominion Flamers and Superior with Combi-Melta? That is a weapon capable of chewing through hordes.

Aqui Posted November 24, 2018 Author Share Posted November 24, 2018 Just thought, it would benefit Seraphim too. Just need to convert some spare bolter Seraphim to Inferno pistols...

ERJAK Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 thinking 5 girl dominion sqd, 4 melta guns + superior with combi-flamer.... wounding T8 monsters on a 3+ 6 girl, by the wording 3 different models have to shoot 3 different guns. Combi- doesn't get around it. To clarify, it very specifically says other model so even if you shoot both a flamer and bolter out of the same model it will only count as one or the other.

Atrus Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I am so happy the holy trinity gets a mention. And so happy my usual loadout for bss just got a major love hug. Plus 1 to wound. Wow, that is noice. Seraphim shooting in combat got some more buff. So tempting to take inferno and hand flamer pistols in squads now. Lose two infernos, but +1 sounds good. Edit; i just realised that large squads of bss would benefit nicely from that stratagem. All 3 wep types having to be in range...using this in 8"...thars up close and personal...max dominion squads transport vanguard move with advance up, jump out 3+6 inches...thatll devastate some chaff screens.

Drider Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Best use is probably the squad of 6 dominions with 4 melta to prop up our lack luster anti tank. Going to need to math out how it compares to 5 melta.

Aqui Posted November 24, 2018 Author Share Posted November 24, 2018 @Aqui @Enosh Apparently, Sisters have, at the very least, artwork in the Vigilus campaign. I've read somewhere, Sisters have a presence planet side, alongside Guard.

Mekhitar Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I had a brief glorious thought of an immolator with a combo melta... the “other model” language closed that one out, but it was a fun thought while it lasted.

Purifying Tempest Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Quick thought from my cell phone, so forgive some of the typing. I looked at the Holy Trinity stratagem once and said: wow, so nice. Good power, great fluff, well done. Then my chaos friend and I were chatting over the Noise Marine model on that page and he mentioned: oh, Sisters got Veterans of the Long War. I reread it and was immediately disappointed. For the same CP cost we get VotLW on a severely depressed variety of weapons with a bunch of arbitrary restrictions that make it incredibly difficult to use in a timely manner. The best I can come up with is a Dominion squad with 4 meltaguns, Combi-flamer, and sixth sister. All in a transport. So 139+transport for the enabling that one stratagem. Most other uses will likely be weaker than that unless you go flamer spam + combi-melta vs a chaff line with the same delivery method. So from a fluff perspective, I love the intention and I really like the thought they are showing. The execution was just poor, especially compared directly to things like Obliterators or havocs with VotLW, which is tactically speaking almost direct in comparison. Edit: fixed some stuff, cell phone typing still sucks :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347326-sisters-speculation-topic/page/17/#findComment-5198356 Share on other sites More sharing options...
