W.A.Rorie Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I have been holding off on this until we had confirmation of new models. Over in the News, Rumors, and Board Announcement section of the forum we had his post: Potential Night Lords vs. Sisters of Battle Kill Team Set Now with confirmation Photos of new Sisters Please go over and discuss in that thread or here!

RolandTHTG Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I'm looking forward to it. Those look great. lots of little gubbins to distinguish celestians from regular sisters.

Bonzi Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 They look so good that I'll buy them regardless of rules, but I do hope they bring something interesting to the army for 40K.

Emperor Ming Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 They look great, but do we need another datasheet of t3 models for 40k W.A.Rorie and Sume 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386499-new-sisters-kill-team/#findComment-6128083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least these will have a 3+ armor save unlike the Sanctifiers. The article today indicates they are Witchhunter Celestines so they're armed with null weapons and and condemnor bolt pistols. If that gear holds true to what we already have it will mean a unit with a 4 or 5+ FnP vs psyker attacks and devastating wounds with anti-psyker 2 or 3+ with precision. Hopefully their 40K rules give them a bit more width in their abilities beyond beyond being a nightmare for T. Sons and Grey Knights.

What sucks is I am the GK player in my group and a most of my opponents don't take Psykers. I am hoping there is another Loadout to make them less Witchhunter and more Celestians Sume 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386499-new-sisters-kill-team/#findComment-6128141 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValourousHeart Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I've been looking forward to a Sister's unit with crossbows for a long time. But the flame pistol and mace will likely be the default loadout we see, given the utility as a counter charge Dominion unit.

I don't think so. I think the hand flamers are restricted in KT to two per squad. It seems the standard for the squad might be crossbow sisters. Which I love btw, condemnor bolt guns are right behind Braziers for favorite SoB weapons W.A.Rorie and Sume 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386499-new-sisters-kill-team/#findComment-6128161 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure KT limits translate into 40K. For 40K, there new moto seems to be a rule for every weapon on the sprue.

ThePenitentOne Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I hope there are some helmeted heads; I used helmets to distinguish my sisters that regularly work with the Inquisition. These heads are pretty blinged up though, so I'm not sure that I'll want to use helmets unless they have similar levels of bling. But a dedicated Witch Hunter unit has Hereticus written all over it.

The upshot is, even if their 40K rules are meh, they're still a great unit to mix into your regular Sisters/Dominions squads to give more character to individual squads. Especially true for Crusade when they may help represent upgrades a squad has earned.
