Unless they've changed something the sister squads that GW sells are the same price as the individual models that make it up. You can buy each special weapon you want seperately and it works out the same. Still $12 a model at best. Pricing out all the extra special weapons and immos I need thanks to the new changes is making me cringe.

Love the fact the latest White Dwarf has both the wrong picture and title for Adepta Sororitas...........

I was just glancing through quickly as I like the simulacrum models. Not going to like the outlay for 10 or 12 lol.
Sad as well out of my 70 redemptionist/priest models only one has a plasma gun :-(

I am liking the overall focus of the list, it is the churches army so nice to see priests linked in.
Spamming immo is fine. Really looking 3 exo or 2 an my easy bake or crematorium for the damned. I have 4 daughters and trust me those easy bake ovens are brutal!

I guess the biggest disapointments for me are the repentia and p engines. I was hoping for inquisitor hq option with raider transport. I honestly fely aa wasn't coming as I feel the want to force guard allies in. I do think we can get enough aa through TL MM and our exorcists.

So I got a lovely box from the war store today labeled "Your reinforcements have arrived" (hah, thanks Neal!) and I am now busily converting up my Protectorate troops into proper ladies of the god emperor.

Which menites did you go for? I was thinking of using some but couldn't find any that I could see working (I had also considered mantid's Basile's, which do seem viable).

I picked up the following:
a box of Daughters of the Flame for use as DCA counts as (Two stabby things, check. Light non-powered armor, check, female, check)
Feora Priestess of the Flame - Epic mode, head canon says her bulky torso armor lets her hulk out power mace style. Will of course depend how WYSIWYG my opponent is.
Nicia Tear of Vengenace - Priestess with Eviscerator
Thyra, Protector of the Flame - Priestess with Power Weapon and Da Book.

I also picked up a Cygnar hero, Major Katherine Laddermore in her Dragoon box. I have no real use for her in my army as I can't think of a model she would do a good job as a counts as for, but I'm doing a little converting and painting her up as a Sororitas knight any way.

Just ordered another Exoricist, Immolator and couple of melta girls

Got 1 exorcist, 2 Immos (now have three of each to build in addition to finished ones), Repentia's and Arcos's which I've never used before and 6x HF, 4x HB and more. Most from GW & some from eBay.

First game with new rules tomorrow, as GK allies but most points spent on the Sisters. Against Nurgle as it looks.

I got my 2 Immolators and Jacobus in yesterday. I also convinced another player buying rhinos to buy immolators instead so that I can magnetize two rhinos with the Immolator sprue bringing me up to 6 Immolators.

Already hvae 3 Exorcists and 3 PEs. I need more Melta Guns, but I gotta save some pennies for that (SO EXPENSIVE). I already have 3 MM, 3 HF, 4 Melta, 8 Flamer. I proxy frequently and opponents don't care after I tell them my special weapon mini costs $12+.

Luckily I have a collection of the Sisters of Sigmar. BAM. Ecclesiarch Priest with Power Maces! It's Bonkin' time!

I currently have three exorcists and 5 Immolators - plus the ones on order and also bidding on a number of Immolators and Rhinos on eby

It's an expensive buisiness supporting the Sororitas but the Emperor is with us

I should be playing against Eldar or Tau tomorrow.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I snagged a converted Exorcist on ebay. I picked out a bunch of nice bits to add to it when it gets here ^_^

Trading for the metal bits for an exorcist right now. Have to find someone who wants them in exchange for an Immolator

I invested in 3 more repressors (got to have that AV13), and as I can now run smaller (thus more) squads I brought another 3 immolators and more meltas/flamers/HF/HB to flesh out my squads (another 18 or so, ouch!). Everything else I have in abundance. Also brought a Valkyre that I'm going to convert to an Avenger.

Trying them with GK Inquisitor allies next, I know adding in IG Plasma Vets and a Russ Squadron fills in obvious gaps from my previous games but I'm hoping GK works as well.

Ooh, yeah, forgot about the three rheboks I have coming in the mail!

I am currently converting a rhino into a immo and have a NOS immo ready to go and I have one built and painted already. I have jut enough for 3 squads of dominions but I usually run a squad of Angels so I'll have at least one spare for 5 girl squad.

I also am thinking of using a 5 girl squad in a rhino and flaming squads out of the two fire points. I was going to go bare bones just the 5 girls a flamer and a heavy flamer and nothing else. Should work out to about 115 pts for some drive by flaming

List wise I think I'm going to focus everything on a 20 girl blob with a conclave, then use my two immos to move either MSU or Dominions to do damage to large things I want dead, rhinos to move 10 girl squads to keep mobile and aggressive and seize objectives behind the dominions and seraphim/celestine (when she's in play). Two Exorcists for fire support, with heavy bolter Rets manning a quad gun for anti-flier and fire base detail.

Might try to convert up an Avenger for some air cover...

My rheboks freshly unpacked from the ramshackle kickstarter. Rhino for size comparison.

These will be immolators to differentiate them.

Getting ready to put some paint on my unpainted models- an exorcist/immolator, four sisters with boltguns,seraphim, seraphim superior (ps/bp), flamer, melta, imagifer, superior (ps/bolter). I just now noticed that the Superior with Power Maul has some sort of second, underslung barrel! Anyone know what that's about? Looks like I could make a combi-weapon with some of those old metal Obliterator bits I have around.

It's a combi-grenade launcher, if I remember correctly. I jsut use it as whatever Combi I'm looking to rep today.

Office Max printed my codex with comb binding for $11. Not bad.

Yeah, I printed the pertinent pages for gaming, but sooner or later I'm gonna hafta to print the whole thing. Good to know it won't be expensive, at least.

So, the exorcist does not come with instructions, but does come with the bits for making an immolator.

I have a bare bones chassis, so now I have two immolators (got one a bit ago with 40-ish Sisters) and an exorcist, when it's built (painting it is gonna be a hassle, I just know it.)

Also using some Reaper miniatures for priests and Superiors, cuz why not. Also looked up the forgeworld price for an Avenger Strike Fighter. 140 bucks. Yikes.

One thing I've noticed already is that Sisters last a lot longer on the field than my orks. When I lose with my orks (which is all but once so far) it's pretty obvious from the start I'm borked. But with Sisters, I feel like I have a chance, even if I only have a few units left. I'm not sure why, but I like it. A lot.

I got mine down to about 75 pages, edited it a bit to fix margins and page breaks. It cuts out the blank pages, the mini displays and such.

Just noticed that now all the Seraphim Superiors are gone from the US GW site. I know we lost one a while ago, but now both

I have a butt-ton of extra ones if anyone needs them. Mostly the PP/PW ones, but they aren't horrible to convert.

Sweet! How are the castings? Do the parts fit well? I'm still waiting on mine.

That's what I thought it might be. I'll try and dig up some melta bits... thanks!

That Rhebok doohickey is awesome. I smell a Hydra flak tank conversion!

Doing a big order shortly. Coteaz, Retinue, Stormraven, 3 immolators.

First game with New Sisters is sometime in Mid November. 2000 points.

Going to field Coteaz with DCA/Cruasder Retinue in a Stormraven 4 missles/TL Plasma Cannon as allies.

Main force looks like Celestine, 4 priests, 2 BSS W MM immo, 3 Exos, and 2 Doms with 2 Melta/2 flamer in a MM immo. All Superiors carrying Condemnors.

Fill out any remaining points with either Seraphim, additional Exos, or penitent engines.

Any thoughts about Jacobus? It seems like his points sort of go to waste without a large sister blob to run him in.

How do you guys run Jacobus?

Blegh. I'm really frustrated. My Condemnor conversion efforts are not going well.

Do what I did. Take a fantasy bow. Cut in half, put one half of each bow arm on the sides of a bolter. Bam done. Put and arrow on top if you're feeling fancy.

I meant that those will be repressors, btw.

So far the pieces look good. They are heavy as all hell. Plenty of flash to clean. I had one miscast/broken piece on a dozer. I am going to wash and pin the major pieces to make them solid. It'll be a while though since Repressors aren't high on my list right now.

Yeah... that seems to be about the only real functioning method to do that at this point. Which annoys me... if we had plastics it'd be cake to marry a cross bow to a Godwin-De'az pattern bolter... or vice versa if you're feeling saucy.

I actually have a fair number of plastic bolters in my army as well. Mostly from converted sergeants, etc.
