I'm trying to work out a fun army at 1850 that incorporates Deathwatch and Sisters of Battle. So I am designing an army around the Repentia, but with DW. I usually run my Iron Hands with Deathwatch (when play competitively/serious business ) and works well, but want to try something a bit different.

Hence:

My thoughts are:

Uriah, the repentia's and the solo librarian run together (start behind the Corvus on the Skyshield) Jump in it turn 1 and go for it.

The Battle sister squads are just for Objectives etc.

In the pod units, the termies are there to tank hits (found they work well if positioned correctly).

Any suggestions or tips much appreciated (I can pretty much field/have anything DW or SoB).

Cheers again,

S.C
