Prophecy Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 True true. I'm thinking blobs with air support from those forgeworld bombers that sisters get would be cool. I also believe maxed out seraphim for fast attack seems good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted June 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Yeah I started making lists with 20 until I was corrected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophecy Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 15 just feels so lack luster I don't know why. Perhaps because it's a fair amount but not enough to be hordeish. 9 points a model though seems like such a strong incentive to try. Are there any independant characters that really offer synergy to foot based sisters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Jacobus increases their LD and gives them +1 Attack Canoness gives them reroll 1's on hit Imagifer gives them a 4+ to get an AoF Dialogus gives them Ld Reroll Hospitaller gives them a healing power. Nothing super nice though. If you put 5 Celestines near them, they get a 2+ invul. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prophecy Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Well then perhaps pentient engines can give it a go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted June 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Okay, so at the Gamer Garage sale today, I picked up 12 more HB bits that I can use to convert to HB sisters, which means something like this will probably be my 1500 list: Outrider 1StC and the G - 250 5 Rets with 4 HB - 85 5 Rets with 4 HB and SB - 89 Imagifer - 40 Imagifer - 40 5 Seraphim with 2 HF - 79 5 Seraphim with 2 HF - 79 5 Seraphim with PP - 62 Outrider 2 Canoness - 45 5 Rets with 4 HB and SB - 89 5 Rets with 4 HB and SB - 89 Imagifer - 40 5 Seraphim with PP - 62 5 Dominions with 4 Melta in Immo with SB - 225 5 Dominions with 4 Melta in Immo with SB - 225 1499 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Okay, so notes from my first game: - Faith is legit. I was shooting and moving and all over the place. - Morale is so bad. I need a dialogous. I lost maybe 7 squads to morale, maybe 20 or so models (including Celestine's first death) to morale. - Melta is hilarious, but save it for the important stuff. - Celestine doesn't like guys who do D6 per unsaved wound. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Okay so apparently morale is on one d6 not 2d6. umm so morale isn't as bad as I thought and my girls were just having a bad day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluger Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Penitent engines don't need faith as much since they have a built in imagifier technically. They can all on a 4+ get a second round of combat. I think flesh over steel is a bit premature. I think a mixed force is going to be ideal. Speed is still required.

pretre Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 If they didn't make them expensive, I might agree. I'm really doing a mix of Flesh and Steel right now. And if I go to 2000, I will add some more immos and some exos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 So, starting to noodle 2k lists just in case someone wants to play 2k during the team event: Spearhead Detachment St C and the G - 250 5 Rets with 4 HB and SB - 89 5 Rets with 4 HB and SB - 89 5 Rets with 4 HB and SB - 89 Exorcist - 160 Exorcist - 160 Exorcist - 160 5 Seras with 2 HF and Chainsword - 79 5 Seras with 2 HF and Chainsword - 79 Vanguard Detachment Canoness - 45 Imagifer - 40 Imagifer - 40 Imagifer - 40 Imagifer - 40 Priest - 35 Commissar - 30 40 Conscripts - 120 5 Doms with 4 Melta in Immo with IF and SB - 225 5 Doms with 4 Melta in Immo with IF and SB - 225 2k Use the Conscripts (redemptionists) as bubble wrap around the heavies.
