ZaelART Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I dunno, I'm hyped. I've wanted a sisters army since 2e but never took the plunge (I was 10), now I've got my FLGS holding the new box for me. Couldn't be happier with the previews, although I haven't played a game of 40k since 3rd. I just want a sisters army, if I get stomped... Well, at least I got to play 40k again.

Interrogator-Chaplain Ezra Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I find myself contiually checking WHC to see the next preview post for Sisters I check it far too many times per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taikishi Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) From the NZ pre-orders site:Looks like 5 new unit entries total, no generic living saint, Geminae are still a separate choice from Celestine, Jacobus gone, no new generic HQ, Mistress is still a separate Elite's choice, no new troops choice, two new HQ choices (both possibly special characters), a new Elites choice (Zephyrim), and either two new Heavy Support choices OR a Heavy Support and a Lord of War choice.

Aqui Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Wonder what the "Triumph of Saint Katherine" is? A mobile shrine with her remains in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERJAK Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 Wonder what the "Triumph of Saint Katherine" is? A mobile shrine with her remains in? Well, it's an hq of some variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.T. Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Wonder what the "Triumph of Saint Katherine" is? A mobile shrine with her remains in? The weird thing is that Celestine is wearing her armour and carrying her sword... That leaves her shield, so perhaps a shield-bearer type character.

Banjulhu Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Being named after St Katherine annoyingly suggests another bloody Order of Our Martyred Lady model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Dawnstar Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Indeed. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's an alternate build for the battle pulpit sans Junith Eruita. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemondish Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) Being named after St Katherine annoyingly suggests another bloody Order of Our Martyred Lady model. That was my initial thought, but then at the same time I remembered that Celestine wears her armour and (mercifully) isn't Order locked. I learned my lesson on the Marine side of things and won't be following a standard paint scheme here for this army, so I'll just get to collect and play everything I want.

ERJAK Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 So the battle sanctum is confirmed to be either a DT or a Terrain piece based on its place in the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvih Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 So the battle sanctum is confirmed to be either a DT or a Terrain piece based on its place in the book. Or, as I pondered in the other thread, a superheavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainMarsh Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 The Mortifiers, Triumph, Battle Sanctum, and Zephirim intrigue me so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montford Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) I note Crusaders are indeed in the Codex. Zephrym, whatever they are, apparently are an Elite choice. Edited November 16, 2019 by Montford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slasher956 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Still only 1 troops choice....for basic girls in power armour we have a lot of elite units...... Hopefully the loss of Jacobs is an indicaton that missionaries can get war gear...although more likely he’s just been chucked into the legends category and missionaries are still stuck with 0 choices ....

Montford Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Happy with the Sacred Rose conviction. Did not lose anything and gained a 1 in 3 chance to gain MD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizara Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 battle sanctum is basically a cheap terrain piece that generates extra miracle dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I'm disappointed by the change in Bloody Rose. MoshJason 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekhitar Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I play Bloody Rose... what’s the change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) I believe they get +1A and +1(or -1)AP when they charge, so no more strength bonus. Edit: That said, the imagifier can give +1S and the Bloody Rose strat gives +1 to wound in combat, which can make up for the strength loss, but at cost and once per phase Edited November 16, 2019 by Ficinus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banjulhu Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 That's a tad annoying but at least it is a side-grade rather than a downgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekhitar Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) Whew, I was nervous that it might have gotten nuked, bust I still like it. ESP since I will definitely be fielding hosts of zephyrim! Edited November 16, 2019 by Mekhitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ficinus Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Yeah, it's not totally undoing it, but that move from S3 to S4 (S6 to S8 for repentia) is massive due to the wound charts. Imagine Zephyrim wounding Marines on 4+ rerolling. I shudder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
