MELEE WEAPONS:

Blessed Weapons: (Canoness and Palatine only).
Only one of each Blessed Weapon may be taken per army. A model can replace one weapon with one of the following.
Options:
- Axe of Retribution (Blessed Weapons): - 20pts.
Range:-, Str: x2, AP:2, Type: Melee, Master-crafted, Two-handed, Unwieldy.
An Axe of Retribution is modelled upon the Axe of Chalcydon that was carried by Saint Jason when he crushed the Eldar on Huale. It has a massive double-bladed head on which is etched the holy words of the Imperial Creed.
- Flail of Chastisement (Blessed Weapons): -30pts.
Range:-, Str: User, AP: 3, Type: Fleshbane, Melee, Two-handed.
This lethal weapon is barbed with many hooks, which move continually around the wielder transcribing an arc into which opponents dare not advance.
A model with this flail reduces the number of attacks of each enemy in contact by -1 (to a minimum of 1).

Brazier of Holy Fire: - 10pts.
This holy artefact is said to light the faces of the faithful and leave the impure shrouded in darkness. In battle, the brazier can be wielded like a weapon in close combat and contains enough fuel to spray a jet of flames at the enemy. The Brazier of Holy Fire counts as a close combat weapon. In addition, it may be used once per battle like a flamer. All of the normal rules for a flamer apply.

Eviscerator: - 15pts. (Canoness, Confessor, Seraphim Superior and Priests only)
Apart from the above changes use as per Codex Adepta Sororitas.

Sarissa:
Range:-, Str: User, AP:-, Type: Melee
These vicious, spiked combat attachments are used by the Adepta Sororitas to add lethal close combat utility to their standard issue bolter. The Sarissa may only be used by a model equipped with a standard bolter.
The Sarissa is considered a CCW so gives the bonus for 2 CCW's in an assault.

RANGED WEAPONS:

Storm Bolter: -2pts.
Apart from the above change use as per Codex Adepta Sororitas.

SPECIAL WEAPONS:

Storm Bolter: -2pts.
Apart from the above change use as per Codex Adepta Sororitas.

ADEPTA SORORITAS VEHICLE EQUIPMENT:

Blessed Ammunition: - 10pts.
Any Heavy Bolter or Storm Bolter shots fired by the vehicle ignore cover saves.

Holy Icon: - 10pts.
The vehicle has a suitably large and impressive symbol of the Ecclesiarchy mounted upon it, a potent sign of the Emperor's blessing and protection. Any friendly unit with a model within 6" of the vehicle adds 1 to it's Leadership up to a maximum of 10 due to there bolstered faith while in the shadow of such a holy object. The effects of multiple holy icons are not cumulative.
Loyal servants of the Emperor will do their utmost to protect this icon from desecration by the enemy.

If the vehicle is assaulted, any friendly unit within 12" of the vehicle may make an immediate assault move with the fleet special rule if this will take them into contact with the assaulting enemy unit.
Both sides will count as charging, and therefore will benefit from the +1 Attack charging bonus and any other special rules.
Enemy models in base contact with the vehicle may still allocate attacks against the vehicle, even if they are in base contact with another model.

Holy Promethium: (Immolator Only) - 10pts.
An Immolator armed with twin heavy flamers and equipped with holy promethium will force a unit it causes a casualty upon to take a Morale check as if it had just suffered 25% or more casualties.

ECCLESIARCHY RELICS:

Holy Censor: - 20pts.
A Holy Censer contains exotic oils and unguents which are heated until their vapours lift into the air in a musty haze. Their scent is highly uplifting and helps mask the stink of foul aliens and stench of heresy. A unit with a character carrying Censer considers itself blessed and will staunchly hold its ground in the belief that the Emperor is protecting them. The unit only has to take Morale checks from shooting if it loses 50% or more of its number in one turn, rather than 25%.

Icon of Chiros: (Kyrinov only).

Made from the black marble of the pulpit Confessor Dolan first preached from, the Icon of Chiros represents one of the ultimate symbols of the Emperor's power. All
who see it are filled with a fervent faith and an undying devotion to the cause. The sight of the icon is so terrifying to the enemies of the Imperium that they flee in terror.
A character carrying the Icon causes fear. Any squads or models within 12" of the Icon (including the character wielding it) count as having a Leadership of 10 and gain Preferred Enemy).

Praesidium Protectiva: 20pts

Believed to contain shards of armour worn by the Emperor Himself, a Praesidium Protectiva is a large solid shield that is famously impervious to physical attacks.

Even blows that would normally cut through Terminator armour are turned aside with
ease by the protection afforded by the Praesidium Protectiva.

A Praesidium Protectiva confers a 3+ invulnerable save. In addition, a
model equipped with a Praesidium Protectiva can never claim the + 1
Attack gained for being armed with two Melee weapons in
an assault.

A Praesidium Protectiva is a Holy Relic and is also considered a Simulacrum Imperialis with all associated rules.

Lol guys Dakka is usually vicious with people adding proposed rules etc. but 100+ people looking and no feedback at all brutal or positive.
I would have thought someone would say if the Penitent was too broken now or just about right to finally arrive in combat at least.

It's a lot to try and sift through honestly. Perhaps if you whittled it down to just the stuff that was being changed?
