I think they should get some variation of the predator or Leman Russ. Totally agree about Admech tho, they have a severe lack of transports which they have pretty good ones in 30k.

Sisters stuff should be OTT gothic decorations. it wouldn't take much to have a set of upgrade sprue to "pimp" out units/vehicles.


I know which Predator variant would most suit the SoB, but it is the variant that least addresses their need for long-range firepower





Combine with this kind of detailing:



and you would get a very SoB Predator.


WIP, but i think it gets the idea across. Would have loved to do multi-meltas though.

I think using that same weapon loadout (bhaal predator, correct?) you would get a better looking tank if you included the Exorcist armor plating for the front and side panels.

A ton of armies and a terrain habit...

I was hoping they did more stuff with the basic chassis they have - so Rhino based vehicles for Ad Mech, both kinds of Sisters, Primaris etc.

probably just a ball predator as rules and points wise it is less of a hassle, would love to have the main gun be an immolation flamer though.

Yeah its a ball predator. Would have loved used the exorcist armor plates if I had them but I only had 3 (now 2) un-built immolators and was the easiest to do at the time. If money was not an issue i would have purchased an exorcist for this project as well for the extra armor.

I was at my local GW today and the guy said he wasn't sure about full beta rules vs. just previewing a few stratagems for CA this year, but he said Q3 2019 for the full release was likely. Take that with many grains of salt... I don't know much about his sources.

Geez, that's over a year


Automatically Appended Next Post:
And like EVERY other edition, Sisters will get their Codex just in time for the new edition's rule book to make it invalid.

I wouldn't be too worried about a new edition. We've seen that with AoS 2.0 that it'll likely just be a relatively minor refinement of the current rules, and every Battletome that was released this year was written with the new version in mind.

If the Sisters drop anywhere near a new edition I'd fully expect the Codex to be written with this in mind.

Hmmm... So the inevitable power creep should make Sisters one of the most powerful armies of 9th ed. yeay!

At leas until the new 9th Ed codexes start getting released.

Pfffff, you guys talking about 9th ed.

AoS was out for 3 years before 2.0 hit. Warhammer 8th should follow the same vein and be out until at least 2020, which means the new Sisters should have a good year before a new edition hits.

Isn't being one of the first codex in an edition the sure hallmark of being a bad army?

If you have to kill, then kill in the best manner. If you slaughter, then slaughter in the best manner. Let one of you sharpen his knife so his animal feels no pain.
