Sisters Troops come in squads of 10 Powered Armored individuals, like SM Tacticals.
Sisters Jump Assault squads come in squads of 5 Powered Armored individuals, like SM Assault Squads.
Sisters Heavy Weapon squads come in squads of 5 Powered Armored individuals, like SM Devestators.
Sisters Vehicles based on Rhino Chasis, like SM Vehicles.

I imagine new sisters models would cost the same new space marine releases.

With GW's history, no. That would be license to increase them 10-15% more than SM.

Battle Sisters $79.80
Blood Angels Tacticals $43
SM Tacticals $40
Adeptus Mechanicus Skitarii $39

Skitarii and Blood Angels are relatively recent releases and hover around $4 a figure

With the current trend in getting started boxes there were would be the eventual sisters $85 box with HQ model and 2 squads. (My guess would be Seraphim and Battle SIsters)

Yeah, the Tyranid codex is the one book I have that I'd really like to see fixed - and would pay money for - before a new edition drops.

Oh that will happen. That is what happened the last two editions I believe. So we might get a new codex before a new edition and then the new edition will just screw up the codex again and wait another 3-5 years of futility.

At least you get a damn codex, with new units and minis to play around with. Sisters have the same minis since 2nd edition, and the same rereleased units since third, only nerfed.

I wish we didn't and get to keep our 4th. I was afraid this was going to happen. Then again, look what happened to sisters. People cried and got an even worse PDF codex.

And I am sure those would sell out like hot cakes.

Well, it was a thought. Just giving Sisters some new plastic models would be great but at £3.20 a figure, GW can feth right off.

Unitl the advent of the super cheese 7.5 edition dexes the digital Adepta dex was not bad, 4 melta gun scouting dominions and the like were quite envied.

Now in the era of Power Formations and free units beign handed out by them left right and centre they look weak.

Dark Eldar suck the big one too. :( Easily worse than Chaos Space Marines and that's an astounding accomplishment thanks to these new base rulebook FAQ's.

Dark Eldar are certainly in need of help, but let's be real here, they are nowhere close to CSM levels of inept...

Codex vs. codex, DE are better than CSM's.
It's only when you supplement your "Chaos Marine army" with about 75%+ of FW and/or Daemon allies that CSM armies become around mid tier.

Guys, we're not gonna do another round of who sucks worse. DE, CSM, Orks, and Guard are all pretty much in the same boat.

Not gonna get into it, but DE won the No Retreat tournament. http://snbattlereports.com/2016/01/28/no-retreat-international-tournament/

DE can be decent.

That tournament had several restrictions that limited the potential cheese you could bring, so its not the most accurate showing of power. However, yeah, they can do well. His list was absolutely brutal!

Where can I find his list? Were they using the recent FAQ's put out by GW?

In my opinion, the player base could use a good cleansing as well. There are a lot of people who min/max and cheese out their armies. These are the people that feed (if not created) this new pay to win craze (think Tau and Eldar) with some recent releases.

Third edition is a recent release now?

Man, that'd be weird; if Third Edition is a recent release, I guess I should stop complainign about GW forgetting that Sisters exist and need new fething models.

I would be enthusiastic about 40k, and full of goodwill toward GW. That's quite telling.
3rd edition would basically be bizarro word.

Bizarro world is right. We might not be bitter, hollow human beings with no hope for the future, unlike right now.

Aye, 3rd edition was fun, simple and streamlined and had mission rules that made sense and had missions that everyone could adapt to work in and did not penalise you too much for being a largely immobile/static army.
3rd Edition was GOOD.

3rd edition was too basic. They gutted 2nd edition to the bare bones, and spent all the way up to 7th edition putting all the interesting stuff back in.

Just thought I would interject and point out the upcoming Codex: Deathwatch and Codex: Genestealer Cult. GW is still going to release codices, not just supplements.

I herd about Deathwatch but not really nothing but a small blurb about Genestealer Cult codex coming out after Deathwatch.. Are you going by that small blurb or you read/herd something else about the GSC codex?

You almost sound like you are talking as fact instead of a small rumour.

Sad Panda was the source of that rumor, and I've yet to see him fail to deliver.
