I always thought they should have a mobile churchy thing. LR Chassis or whatever, something that is a center for faith on the field.
If I can fire heavy weapons while moving, that's cool too.
How about a drop podding bunker/church? Armor 14 bunkers that are immobile and deepstrike, giving faith.
That'd piss off those Deepstriking landraider bastards!

Also, the Conflagrator Tank in my codex DOES have options for the Inferno Cannon, which is the flame weapon used on the Hellhound.
Which itself was supposedly derived from the Immolator STC to begin with.

And I'd LOVE it if I could take an army of only Celestians somehow, and they're all equipped with BP+CCW, some of them upgraded with power swords instead of ranged special weapons...
Heh. I'd also love it if they made power spears a reality, but alas.

I'm still trying to see why this [chaos sisters] is a bad thing. Put a white sheet of paper against another white sheet of paper.
Not a lot of contrast, right?
Put that same white sheet of paper against a black one.
Now the white stands out.
If Sisters were known to go rogue; not necessarily on a regular basis, but at such a rate that it happens more often than 1 in ever, then wouldn't the faith and staying power of those sisters still in the SoB be that much more impressive?

Slarg232 wrote:Still, Chaos Sisters wouldn't be that bad of an idea.
This is an interesting discussion. I've been working on a codex called Slayers of the Faithful, which is a unique army that focuses on killing or, preferably, sacrificing the Emperor's most faithful servants. Grey Knights and Sisters are near the top, along with with things like Imperial Saints and any other individual that the Emperor likes to support. It's definitely not Chaos Sisters, but I could possibly see a very small unit snuck in there. I wouldn't go for anything larger though, as I've never seen many incidents of corruption from them, and I can't see that many of them in one place.
Essentially, the closer they are to the Emperor, and the more uncorruptible they are, the more desired they are as victims. Someone like a standard guardsperson would hardly be worth their time. Inquisitors would be a mixed bag; some might be worthwhile, while others would be no good at all. They would get something similar to how faith points are used, but with some changes and alterations. Fluffwise, but probably not gamewise they will also have some connection to the Dark Elder, as regards trading of captives, since the Dark Eldar are more into quantity of the captives, where these are more about the perceived quality of the captives.
I got the idea when I was discussing Witch Hunters with a friend, and wondered why the Witches don't do some hunting in return. It's going to be a mixed force with more of a LOTD feel rather than a straight Traitor Legions force. So far it's experimental, however, but I've got enough done that it's being beta tested by some acquaintances.

Ever met any girls that honestly believe they are better than men just because of their sex? What you're doing is like that, only the other way. It's a dickish thing to say that really didn't have to be said.
