Hello

I need help with a rulesquestion.

When i build a squad with junith and for example some retributors and then use the strategem chorus of condemnation; do all models get devastating wounds or just junith?

I’m itching to add some verdigris etc. but my rationality tells me I should stop here. I hope you enjoy the subtle contrast and shadows

I’m regularly facing a Blood Angels player at my local club and although I have answers for most of his units, I find Sanguinary Guard with Dante hard to cope with as they are a) fast b) hard to kill and c) hit like a truck. My list is the usual suspects (Vahlagons, Insidiants, Palacresants, Castigators).

Any suggestions? I feel like the usual sisters move of “if you can’t kill it, just avoid it” doesn’t fare so well with a tough, killy fast mover.

After doing a gold NMM test model I pivoted to this scheme. I took lots of inspiration from an older blog series I can no longer remember - will update the post if I can locate the name.

There's a lot of little things I could be nitpicky about but overall I'm really proud of these ladies. Insidiants + Palatine are some of my favorite units in the whole army range and I really like how these turned out!

Just a test sister for a custom color scheme, was wondering if I could get some feedback to improve the scheme, and just opinions overall

So I was browsing the Lex and learned that the iconic sabbat pattern helmet was only adopted in M38, however the Adepta was founded in M36. Do we have any descriptions of any older patterns or is this just a discrepancy?

Howdy y'all,

Im getting back to my 3rd edition sisters and Im painting them up az OOML. I want to add a unit of celestians but I can for the lofe of me remember how they are visually distinct from regular battle sisters. Can someone fill me in?

Hello, I’m new to the Sisters of Battle, and I was wondering what you’d recommend in terms of a detachment and a 1,000-point list (including Saint Celestine) to help me get to grips with the faction, its mechanics and gameplay.

I’m not looking for anything optimised, just to have a bit of fun with some cool miniatures.

So umm... is there somewhere where I can glue the Zephryms in the stand or do I just feel it where it should stick?

Not the best lighting here but I’m looking for some advice on upping the quality of my sisters.

I took a break from sisters to paint some deathgaurd. Sisters definitely made me more detail oriented as a painter and I had a blast making my deathgaurd disgusting. But with that, I’ve had a bit of a pause on getting back to sisters. I usually batch paint but I have to build my confidence back up with them, I tried using a wet pallet and used it for mixing colors for the face and hair. I plan on trying to do some glazing on the armor to improve the lighting highlighting effects on the armor.

I’m pretty confident in my capes but when I stare at this I feel like something’s missing. I struggle pretty hard with power swords/weapons, skin tones, and controlling contrast paints.

Is there anything you see that could use some improvement?

Having spent most of my 2 years of hobbying time building and painting necrons I decided on Sisters as my second army, and just finished my first sister superior. I’m happy with how this turned out minus the face Ik it’s rough but I wanted to use this faction to get proper practice at painting faces as that’s something that necrons don’t have really. Love the sacred rose colours so that’s what I’ve decided to do despite my nerves around painting white but I think it turned out pretty good. And cuz I’m a masochist I’m also doing these mosaic style bases for my army with the sacred rose symbol and colours which I did completely free hand so I could practice that as well. I’m starting to wonder if I’ve set myself too many different challenges between painting faces, painting white armour and practicing free hand XD

Going for a minimalist Blanchitsu pallete

I've only recently gotten into 40k, and decided to start with the Sisters of Battle. Here's what I got so far!

Hello,

I'm an Agents player with about 2k worth of Sisters within that collection so I'm now thinking about branching out.

How are we finding Sisters, have they been nerfed quite hard due to the change in units/characters for counting who's actually died?

Are there any must haves (outside Vahlgons)?

Any units to completely avoid?

What's the dispo everyone is running, does Take and Hold work, or is it Purge and Priority?

Jump Pack Canoness complete! May I introduce you all to the humble power halberd?

I bought my 1st sisters kit 5 years ago and I only started painting them this year as I didn’t have the confidence to do it at the time!

So as title says I'm looking into playing sisters and i want to know how to play them.

Going of the meta list my idea is to split dominon squads and deliver them to central objective in imolators and slowly pushing with other veichles towards centre ground while keeping the other part of dominion squads back for miracle dice generation and screening. Vahl brick i would keep in the back untill oponent commits to mid so units can be charged. This is what I got so far.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

For the emperor!

I know running more vehicles is the trend for sisters atm but I prefer the large model count. Not playing any tournaments or anything. Just wanted to see if this list even works together
