As anyone who has played both WHFB and 40k can attest to there is some coralation between the two systems. It's not perfect and not every army is supported for both systems, however there are several dual game choices.

I'd like to see a all feamle army for WHFB. Something that could draw a coralation to the SoBs preferably. In that attempt its important to decide what traits make SoB iconic and then make some similarities geared towards WHFb.

So a SoB list will usually have some of the following traits:
- Faith: the ability to use a resource system which gives special rules to individual units on a as needed basis. This resource system is not infinite but is renewable as casualties to the army occur.
- Short ranged fire power of high strength: lots of meltas in a Sob list which are devastating to vehicles but are quite short in range
- Numerous flame based templates : a SoB army will bring lots and lots of templates, more probably then any other 40k list except maybe a Vulcan list.
- Exorcists: music based weapons of war

So these are the traits that i believe make a SoB iconic and different then other 40k lists.

The first question then is if there is input for other traits i should be considering.

There's a fanlist out for them, south america themed female warriors.

The guy that wrote their book also is making/has made army lists for other armies.

O.K. so that is a definate cool pdf thanks for the link.

No problem. I like some of the alternative stuff and have used the Dwarfs of Chaos Indie Rulebook with my dusty Chaos Dwarf models.

Beat me to it.....I have play tested all of his books in multiple games and they all work swimmingly

I like the idea. So we can equalise the number of Order and Destruction forces.

In Mordhiem there's the Sisters of Sigmar...

If you wanted a more direct match to the religious feel of the Sisters and not just the sex of their soldiers, I'd go with an "Angels & Paladins" army rather than the Amazons.
