So...all of us should go to Adepticon in force in the future.

Like every player we can get to do it that plays Sisters of Battle. And we need to use all our prize support in the coming months at tournies for Sisters of Battle stuff. And we need to print Fleur d li's or however you spell it on the backgrounds of everything.

Subliminal messaging worked for Russia and it can work for us.

really impressed with how the conclaves did basically carrying the list, which is what I envisioned them doing on paper.

Really not impressed with the Space Wolf Player. He should have shot at the conclaves ride first, the dominions really didnt serve as a threat. If I were playing the wolves list I woulda popped both conclaves inbackfield without smoke, then taken on the dominions, and I woulda sent scouts towards exorcists(obv).

The conclaves had cover turns one and two. He shot at them just didn't take them out. If he ignored the doms, I would have sealed him in his DZ and nuked all his transports. Gotta go with the most pressing threat first. Otherwise that's 6 TL meltas plus krak and flamers on your parking lot first turn.

And actually the stars of the list were the Exos. Conclaves were close but the AV13 plus crazy amount of damage they did won me the game. Conclaves did pull a serious amount of weight though.

Hardest matchups have been horde so far. I have not won twice with it. One was a squeaker vs Green Tide orks where I pulled out a draw last turn by contesting with Exorcists. I had maybe 4 units on the board at the time (celestine and 3 beat up exos). It was bad.
The other was a real close KP game against GK where I was murdering him, but he slipped ahead on turn 5 and the game ended.

The flamers are because I have SOO much melta and anti-tank in the list, I needed something for horde. Also, they go well with the Dominions because they pop a tank with the vehicle and then eat the contents. I had two dominion squads murder a full 10 man BA tac squad with priest in one game. It was hilarious. The only time they failed me was this game where I put 11 wounds on a RP and GH and they saved every single one.

They do have a combi-melta, btw. With the faith power, the TL melta does pretty well if I need it. I would have used it in this game probably if I had any left after turn 1, but every single Sup died to vehicle explosions.

The Dominion squads are basically the reverse of how I used to run celestians. 2x Melta in the squad with a TLHF - shoot tank up and Flame contents. Now the tank is just the one doing the Melta'ing. You get close to the same effect.

Exactly. Also, the flamers make me hold the Doms in the tank longer, whereas with the melta I am more inclined to throw them away for little gain.
