Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Yesterday I played against Sisters for the first time ever (with some Inquisitor allies). 1750 points, I ran my Nids.
I got tabled. It was absolutely beautiful. I killed maybe 10 models total and did a bit of damage to one of two Immolators. The other one passed every single one of its friggin Shield of Faith rolls. I now realize that Shield of Faith is completely OP (not really).

Too many people fail to understand, nobody plays sisters because they are expensive as feth and got little diversity, not due to power-that's the one thing they got done right.

Do you mean that Sisters are on par with other armies in the power department? I wholly disagree. Not in my meta, at least.

I've only ever seen them played once (Before their current mini-dex) and I was on the same side so I didn't exactly feel their wrath as it were.
They did a pretty decent job of it, it was nice to have some heavy troops to back up my admittedly rather squelchy guardsmen.
