Now that said, time for me to say the unpopular thing. But I need to be honest, if Raging Heroes is doing a SoB kind of army...I am dreading it.
I absolutely HATE their "Toughest Girls in the Galaxy" series, pretty much without exception. Almost all of them are just grossly oversexualized to the point of being just gross and creepy to ever want or put on a table. Do SoB have some sexualized models (ie Repentia) sure, but the thought of RH doing a whole army in this style just makes me shudder.
This is a good point. Personally I wouldn't want to build a SoB army out of TGG models because they are so over the top. They remind me more of anime than table top gaming. If GW ever revamped the SoB, I would hope they wouldn't take the same course. The original models were pretty rad and they just need some tweaking. Again, my example of this is Grey Knights. Look it how they went from a limited line of metal models to some amazing plastic kits without completely changing the core design,
I think that we're pretty safe from this. Repentia aside, GW treated the Sisters with respect. They al look like soldiers, not unrealistic for what they are at all. And if you're still worried about GW making the Sisters too "over the top", just look what happened to the Daemonettes...
Actually, Repentia were toned down a great deal from their depictions in the illustrations. In the illustrations, they're basically nude, bald, raving crazy people with giant chainswords, and the only thing that covers the naughty bits is a scroll sewn to their chests.
See the Repentia on the right on Codex: Witch Hunters' cover art:
http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Codex:_Witch_Hunters#.UbGOmZyXT6g
Nevermind on what was here before, I must've been imagining things or misremembering, because I can't find what I was thinking of.

GW obviously has, to this point, found better uses for their money and time than plastic Sisters.
You mean like paying out dividends to shareholders because 'they dont need to invest anything else into the business'?
If gw redid sisters with their current skull encrusted playmobile happy toy design ethos i dont think there will be too many happy sisters players...

I used to have hope. : D
Then I came to Dakka. : (
This place, is like a black hole, sucker of hope. Hope cannot escape its black, slimey claws as it grabs every last bit of optimism and drags it back in.
WoW forums have just as much negativity as Dakka, but GW makes it real hard to go, ". . . You're crazy."

Of course I still have hope. Someone has to. You negative bar stewards.
No, honestly, I know how very bleak it is. Even if there is a 0.0000000001% chance they'll release some plastic sisters, I am holding on.

I was also expecting GW to release the Sisters Codex as a PDF about 6 months after the WD came out.
Anyways, yay hope!

I already have my army of Sororitas.
But I was lucky. I picked up the bulk of my Battle Sisters when those boxes of 10 were still being sold for 50 bucks each.
Also picked up some Repentia and Seraphim that way.
Later, I fleshed out my collection with more special/heavy weapons, Superiors, even some Simulacrums - one design of which is now being sold by GW as a "Blessed Banner" bearer.
Personally, I took a banner from a Bretonnian Knights kit I had lying around for another conversion (Scout Bikers with lances!) which I have yet to do, snipped off the top of one of the Simulacrums, and stuck it on. My second attempt at pinning (my first was a Big Mek with Shokk Attack Gun. It did not go well) went decently, apart from when I drilled through the wall of the banner pole while making room for a toothpick. Managed to do a half-assed job of fixing it with superglue, liquid green stuff, and a Predator tank.

It's okay to have hope. I don't think that we'll get anything this year, but I'm pretty sure that we'll get something sooner or later.
If nothing else, just rememeber that people who say "Sisters will never be updated" aren't GW employees. The only solid, verifiable fact that we have is that we don't have any solid, verifiable confirmations! But we do know that they've be given continued support and not simply squatted, and that other armies have been in similar positions but GW has redone them and made them into strong sellers. These facts do imply that we've not been forgotten and that we'll likely get something eventually.

Heh Pouncey your conversions are pretty good stuff as I recall. I swear I saw images somewhere at some point.
The only reason I have all the Sisters I do is I caught an extremely good deal on the bulk of my army, and picked up the rest through another good deal and a little ebay buying.

You probably saw my conversions either when I linked them on my photobucket, or when I linked my Celestine conversion from my FurAffinity page.
http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/andreyis/
(It's a furry site, but it's thankfully one of those where you have to be logged in and have your site settings set right, in order to show anything pornographic that hasn't been mis-labeled with a G rating (the user who uploads it sets the rating))
(And the name Andreyis has to do with a chapter of my life which wasn't particularly fun, due to mental illness)
I bought most of my Sororitas straight from my local GW, at least the stuff I didn't have to direct order from the website. Though one unfortunate model I purchased from my FLGS which I later mutilated in an ill-conceived attempt to create a Kerrigan miniature after playing Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty twice through in the same night. That model was unfortunate, because it was an OOP Canoness with a combi-flamer and holy icon.

Hmm...
Even at a probable 5 dollars per model for a squad (Some of their other squads are priced at around 40 euros for 10, which translates to over 50 Canadian dollars), it's still cheaper than Sisters are currently.
And they're still metal or resin, so that won't help with my plans for scaly and furry Sororitas.
They'd certainly be a lot nicer. Time will tell if they're worth replacing the Sisters I currently have.
Time and sleep. I have not gotten any sleep last night.

Like they said, it was one of their earlist projects but it never took off. It will be one of their 3 Kickstarters. The first was the TGG. I don't recall which will be next, but I think it will be the Dark Elves one. Then and only then, the Sisters, IIRC.
I hope it's like that, because I need some time to recover after the TGG so I can throw money at their face once the Sisters KS is up

I'd certainly look into buying a boat load of these for my sisters army. Especially if I hear nothing about GW releasing some.
And if they DO, good, I'll get some of those too.
Win/Win surely?
Best part is atleast we can grab a few kits from forgeworld for vehicles too.
Expensive, but they look decent. http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Sisters_Of_Battle

Heh, interesting. Do they have a backstory? The Sororitas answer the the Space Wolves, perhaps?
Their homeworld is basically Warcraft's Azeroth in a distant future where it's been rediscovered by the Imperium after being lost during the Horus Heresy. The locals, now being highly rich in species diversity (WoW species, furries of all sorts, and probably tons of other stuff), somehow were NOT cleansed of all non-humans (probably the humans too given how long they've been tainted by such weird creatures) and the Imperium was basically welcomed with open arms. The Imperium brought their usual stuff, blah blah blah, Chaos invasion, blah blah blah, random dangerous native psyker somehow converting Chaos Space Marines away from their gods, Sororitas sent in to investigate/apprehend, then those Sisters basically got injected with gas-released nannites which broke down their Imperial brainwashing by turning their minds against each other. They fake their own deaths since they know how the Imperium would deal with such a thing, join with the psyker, help him fight off the Chaos raid or whatever, and eventually after some conflict with the local Imperial forces, everything returns to normal. Sorta.
Then the natives learn about the Black Ships and their purpose, and, well, being rich in psykers, fear the worst. So they plan in secret for a couple of decades, during which time it becomes clear that some of those "unbrainwashed" Sororitas are not so unbrainwashed, which becomes apparent during attempts on the life of their new host psyker guy. Time goes on, as the native engineers install Star Trek style FTL drives into the planet itself when it becomes clear that they can't really withstand the Imperium's wrath for disobedience. They also get a solution for sunlight, basically a giant sunlamp on a rail that goes around the planet, and around the time everything becomes clear to a local Inquisitor, they kick every Imperial loyalist off the planet, as by that point they have orbital defence guns and their own small spacefleet, then kick off into the galaxy to go find every one of their people that was tithed to the Imperium. At some point, a group of Imperial saboteurs launch devastating attacks on key production facilities and leadership. The psyker who took the Sororitas in gets sucked into a Vortex grenade that one such loyalist held behind his back while hugging him after another saboteur tried a more conventional approach with a vortex grenade and failed. He came back, gods only know from where, months later. In that time, the remaining Sororitas had set up an orphanage, teaching their faith in the God-Emperor, and replenishing their numbers with the most gifted, though they did allow a great deal of freedom for the orphans to choose their own paths in life.
The entire thing is based almost entirely on a long-standing series of roleplays I've been doing with a friend going back about six and a half years now.
Also, is it bad that I typed ALL of that from memory?
Oh, and more detailed versions are in the text submissions on my FA gallery. They all have dark grey icons with the white text saying "Story" There's four of them: The History of Priscus III, Sisters of the Flame, Sisters of the Flame Fluff: The Awakening, and Battle-Saint Valeria.
The first is about the background of the planet. The second is about the small Order of Battle Sisters that now resides there. The third is a small, more detailed story about how they got their Imperial indoctrination broken. And the last is about my not-Celestine.

Heh, interesting. Do they have a backstory? The Sororitas answer the the Space Wolves, perhaps?
Also, is it bad that I typed ALL of that from memory?
No, My mind is filled with similar length stories that I could never actually get down to writing.

I could tell you the entire story of my orc warlock's travel through azeroth from beginning to end. Vanilla to Pandaria. It'd be a tale longer than the bible and so badly written you'd want to cry after the first paragraph.
So I just tell it to myself in my mind.
Does that make us crazy?
Oh well. Anyway, let's steer back on topic.
If I don't get any sisters this year I'm gonna give in and buy some Tau.

And to think, this is AFTER I stayed up all night grinding AV to get my druid up to 90 while listening to The Price of a Mile over, and over, and over.
IT WAS AMAZING!
It's okay, though. This one person once suggested I be interred in a Penitent Engine for being optimistic that even if they squatted Sisters, I could use em as Space Marine counts-as. : D Automatically Appended Next Post: ascended_mike wrote: Pouncey wrote: ascended_mike wrote: Pouncey wrote: Troike wrote: Pouncey wrote:And they're still metal or resin, so that won't help with my plans for scaly and furry Sororitas.

I used to be crazy, colloquially speaking.
Then I told my parents why I was refusing to go to school. Now I have meds. Meds which I should take now since I didn't take em last night since I take em at bedtime because they make it naptime.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised. |
