It says we get three Alter of War missions, so yeah, probably just those White Dwarf ones.
Also, where's that preview the Facebook page mentioned? Were they just referring to those images on the eBook's page?

Woah, that's quite a change from the usual depiction of the Sisters. The most obvious thing being the new “helmet”  .
First sister I see with a full bionic arm though.
A hint at what to expect if they do new plastic model ? But then why does it look nothing like the cover of the very same book ?

More juicy screenshots! https://itunes.apple.com/gb/book/codex-adepta-sororitas/id724618573?ls=1 It says that you can download a sample from iTunes, but I can't seem to do it from my computer. The Rosarius on the Canoness is now 15 points, by the way. The Canoness herself remains the same point cost. I'm also seeing an all-new special rule called Martyrdom. Something to do with the adjusted Faith system?

Martyrdom better be extremely powerful, or the Canoness will be as bad as before. Which means either still Saint Celestine all the time, or if they nerfed Saint Celestine, that we are going to loose a lot.
Also, still no jetpack available. And no artificier armor either, though maybe a 2+ via the cloak.
Well, at least it's going to be easy to trigger that martyrdom !

Martyrdom probably means we went back to the way we got faith points in C:WH. Set number for the game plus X for every time someone with Martyrdom dies.

Appreciated, MCC. I will definitely pick it up then. Automatically Appended Next Post: It's wishlisty, but it would be great if there was a relic like the Laughing God thing for Eldar that let you turn a Canoness into a living saint. So it would allow 'Make your own' saints.

Well, since the basic Sisters don't have it, it means it's going to be very hard to get some faith point back, then. And given how the effect of the act of faith don't seem to have changed (same name on everything that's been reveled), that would be very very weak. I rather think some armywide bonus when the canoness dies. Like everyone get hatred ( lol useless) or rage.
My bet is on hatred for obvious reasons.

Very interesting description of the Celestians :
Celestians are the finest and noblest warriors of their Order - inspirational figures whose refusal to yield, even in the direst of situations, is legendary. The presence of such warriors does much to bolster the fighting spirit of nearby troops, and as such, the Orders Militant allow these distinguished veterans to bear devotional markings.
http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat660006a&prodId=prod2270010a
Seems like they finally switched the Celestian role from slightly above grot-level CC at the expense of useful shootiness ability to something actually useful, nearby unit boosters with very high Ld or some morale special rule. Fearless ?

On a minor note, Hamer and Anvil was also added to their Novels section on the GW site. Long overdue, but nice to see.
Also, the Seraphim Superiors aren't back for the Seraphim one-click collection... So yeah, I guess there's a legitimate problem. With all three Seraphim Superior models.

Blanche poster aside, I'd just find all of those miniatures lying around unpainted a bit daunting, personally. I prefer to do my buying in small batches.
And, come on, I'd be a hypocrite if I bought the Blanche poster after all that complaining about high heels I did.

Me too. Add to that no price reduction over buying piece by piece AND inclusion of useless models (storm bolters ? Really ?) and it's a no-brainer. The only reason to buy would be the Blanche poster, but that makes it a bloody expensive poster, so no thank you  .
