A super exorcist (like all the conversions that started popping up after the first apocalypse).

Even though their perception of the lore is rarely waht the fans think of it.

Fans?

This site has GW fans?

Well, I guess the WoW forums have Blizzard fans, and they have even more complaining.

Sisters won't be getting anything for the Apocalypse release because GW doesn't support them in supplements. They haven't so far so why start now.

Actually, they'll probably just get reprints of the white dwarf formations that released after the codex update.

I hope they get a little more than that, because those really weren't that good. I'm not counting on it though.

Purge Squad is pretty good if you equip 'em right and take that one asset that lets you come off any table edge But anyway, I hope it's more than just a copy & paste, especially since the repentia one specifically removes Rage, which isn't bad any more.

I'd like to see a drop-church. It'd come down like a drop pod (maybe even with the drop pod assault rule), contain a squad of sisters and then become a fortification. Maybe acting as a faith point generator or an objective in its own right, as well as buffing the girls.

It could be ornamental as you'd like, with fold-down buttresses and a pop-up pulpit (containing some BBQ torrent flamer equivalent of the Aegis quad-gun?). Maybe one of those pipe-organ missiles too.

That'd be EPIC.

While not an epic unit... After facing CSM with that nice AP3 Torrent Template flamer thing I want one too. Asking for AP3 might be too much, but SoB should surely have something with Torrent - like the proposed anti-infantry version of the Exorcist, and maybe Retributors using the weapon instead of heavy flamers.

I'm loving this idea.

Drop-church fortifications is probably the single most awesome idea I've heard for a 40k fan unit in a long time.

Having a 10 sister transport hold, some firing points, and AV12 all around, so it can be some sort of a thorn in the side of the enemy and require some heavy duty guns to deal with, this could be potent, fluffy, and amusing-all at once.

"We don't have drop pods...but we do have drop TOWERS"
"Did you just land a guard tower in the middle of my army?"
"FIRE THE RETRIBUTERS!""

How about a Cathedral tank on the Land Raider chassis that fires a ton of torrent flamers? That would be cool.
