The clock was reset ... could it be happening now????

Sisters of Battle Missing......

Sisters of Battle missing from the display cases? Often this means they are out for getting pics done..... so just what could it mean? if anything of course. Reset the clock.

via a reader on Faeit 212
I went to WHW last week and literally the only models missing from their plinths in the Exhibition Hall were Celestine and the Exorcist tank - there weren’t any Sisters of Battle that I could find anywhere.

Make of that what you will!

Could they have been stolen in an epic heist?

**Breotan**

Because they're being used in a battle report against some sort of heretic or xenos army?

**Galas**

It is not the first time this has happened... I doubt it will mean anything... but oh boy... I really want to believe.

This is the story i'm gonna believe for now, hoping for new SoB isn't going to do much but bring pain. It might be best to forget about it until they just magically show up one day, or don't.

**Sasquatch**

Well they just reset the squat clock.... Maybe they needed to kill off Sisters to balance the books :p

**Tannhauser42**

IF a new Sisters of Battle model release was incoming, they wouldn't empty the display cabinet because they would be using the new models instead. So, it's more likely just a standard battle report involving them.

**AdmiralHalsey**

Which would still be good news, though. They're unlikely to be;

THIS WEEK. SISTERS VS XENOS.

Next week - Sister's line of minatures abolished in favour of new Ultra Primaris Space Marines, with THREE Wounds and THREE attacks. [Now slightly bigger.]

**Casbyness**

Maybe they're just taking photos for the Adeptus Ministorum Codex?

**Giantwalkingchair**

People, clearly Celestine was "needed elsewhere"

Celestine and the Exorcist are both in plastic, so if plastic Sisters were coming they would be the two models that wouldn't be replaced.

**Giantwalkingchair**

Exorcist is plastic thino chassis, metal turret, organist extrordinaire and servitor loader.....just to be technical.

**Eldarsif**

Battle Report most likely.

However, if I were to be optimistic and depending on if it is a battle report or not, it does feel like GW are warming people up with Sisters of Battle.

Again, only if I were to be optimistic.

This. She failed her 2+ this morning.

You are confusing the immolator (all plastic) and the exorcist (the immolator kit + lots of extra metal parts on top).

Yeah this.

In celebration of their rich history it's probably for a battle report where the Necrons kill every last one of them while taking minimal loses.

**ClockworkZion**

Either Sanctuary 101 part 3 (as speculated) for the WD, or a possible bat rep for something else. Then again, it could be a codex with no model updates (again) and they needed the models for that. :/
