Jump Canoness returns along with codex 

[Wolf Lord Duregar]

Still not knowledgable enough about the range, to be able to compare and have an opinion - not sure what I think.. But seems cool! Usually good with more models, bitz though. :)

 

I do like the respirator head and the eviscerator. especially though.

Maul is pretty sick looking too

As much as it's good to finally have JPC back, I would have liked the option for her to have a bolt pistol or Inferno pistol as the alternative to the hand flamer. But, it is what it is.

It's such a strange omission. Wouldn't be a problem if the options weren't limited to the box.

 

I love this kit. My only issue is lack of a helmeted head, but that's easy to rectify

Not to be that guy but their ‘halberds’ look a lot more like poleaxes to me.

There's a rumour that one of the detachments is a flying focus, which could be cool. Certainly I've wanted to add a block of jump units to my army as part of the narrative, and a generic jump canoness empowers that- particularly for Crusade, because you need non-named HQ's to lead your units so that leaders can grow alongside the units they command.

 

So minimally, without any changes of battle line, such a detachment would be 3 seraphim units and 3 zephyrim units, with 1-3 jump canonesses to lead. You could also conceivably drop in Celestine, Junith and Stern.

 

I'll need at least one of these- possibly two. I think I'm going to get that battleforce box. My that'll give me two units of 5 seraphim and two units of 5 Zephyrim plus the Canoness.

I will have 2...at least...been waiting for this since she was taken away so long ago.

There's very little difference between a Halberd and a Poleaxe besides the physical weight of the axehead being Heavier on a Poleaxe and the back spike being replaced with a Hammer-head, so with the SoB Halberd's having a pretty decent amount of the Axehead cut-out for the Fleur-de-lis icon and a fleur-de-lis on the back working as a spike, I'd say they'd be classed as Halberds.
