This list doesn't rely on Acts of Faith, just raw fire power. Major use of castling infantry behind two vehicles. Check my Transport tactics link for more details. Sure it maybe a little outdated, but it's still viable.

Small but big point. Drop the heavy flamer for flamers. it's a 90 point swing which you can spend on combi melatas on all the dominions and celstians, or take an alpha strike with HK missles, or you could even take uriah or krynov. The latter can make the whole army fearless if you stick together, and is a cheap simulacrum and +1 to faith roll.
Hvy flamers are great but not 15 points better... IMO.

Pretty awesome list. Wouldn't really change anything. Get a game in with the new codex yet?

God do i love sisters lists, i love this list too, but i think deFl0 is right on the dot with the switching of the heavy flamers.
Is it me or are there a metric feth ton of Rhinos in that list....

I think the scouting multi-melta immolator is worth it. It's the only immolator I would take after the update, I look at it as paying extra points for scout.
I'm surprised you aren't putting in a dca squad for counter assault. About the only good thing to come out of the wd is that you can get a decent counter assault unit, and it doesn't even take up a valuable slot. The feel no pain from Uriah makes running an all dca viable (they will actually survive the rhino explosion). Or the 5/4 split with crusaders gives some interesting tarpit options.

Looks pretty good. Wow, those battle sisters got nerfed big time. Now they cost 200pts and don't even have divine guidance!
So, no immolators at all? Are they that bad now?

They cost the same as they did before, but lose their 1 fire point, and the ability to fire if they move 12". The multi-melta option costs more than the option to give any marine razorback tl lascannon or lascann/ tl-plasma.

Pretty much this. I'm still a fan of them, mainly because they're one of the best-looking tanks GW ever released, and the removal of all of their wargear options means I can add on whatever I like from the kit for aesthetic purposes without worrying about WYSIWYG. I would say that MM-Immos are probably (from a competitive view) worth fielding with Dominions, mainly for the difference the Scout move makes to the tank's 2d6 melta range.

I hope to see a battle rep with this new list, SabrX !
I am really torn between these two options of overcosted HF or less-punchy flamers to gain some points...

They never had a fire point.

They never had a fire point.
Immolators in codex Witch Hunters had 1 fire point.

Oh, I never thought they did, main reason I never ran Immolator spam. So thus, never really ran Immolators in the old codex. Oh well, no big loss to me as I obviously never used it that way.
On the bright side our Rhinos officially have 2 fire points now. No more having to use the forgeworld rules to allow 2 models to fire out the hatch.
