Could you imagine what the Imperium of Man would look like if the Emperor was a stereotypical single mom? The Empress would always be on crusade. Sure gak would get done, but the Imperium would feel neglected and unloved and eventually turn to meth and synthwave.

Ouch, that hit a little close to home.

Sorry, totally not the voice of experience talking there either!

Hey, that's one great thing about playing a GW game! No money for drugs!

I thought GW minis WHERE our drugs? they're unreasonably expensive, and we keep buying more and more to feed our habbit

But seriously, I play Sisters of Battle. We don't go rogue.

Except when you do.

1 person pulled a Horus and switched teams. Every other example of Sisters of Chaos have been through daemonic possession or some kind of mind control.

It's more than that. Sisters just erase all evidence of those who turn apart from one.

It honestly surprises me how many people read "The Invitation" and take what it says at face value. The whole thing is a story about covering up a Sister going rogue, and its sources of how many Sisters have fallen are from the characters rather than the narrator (and are usually full of massive loopholes like "I can't find any records of Sisters going rogue", or from characters who wouldn't admit the truth anyway). You certainly shouldn't be taking its message literally - the only thing you can reasonably conclude from it is that the number of rogue Sisters is few enough that it can be practicably be covered up.

I'd guess a fair part of this is going to be that GW really haven't been bothered to do much development on the Sisters for a long time. I wouldn't be entirely surprised to hear of more cases when they become an up-to-date faction again and they start to appears in codices/novels again as more than an occasionally remembered corner of the fluff.

Anyway, as far as my chapter turning traitor... well, seeing as it's actually my chapter that I wrote, it seems unlikely that it will turn traitor without my explicit consent.

Just wondering how loyal everyone is. If your loyal chapter turned rogue, would you throw your chips in with chaos or would you stop collecting them or pretend it never happened?

I would start a thread about it and then argue with you over several dozen pages about how my lore has just been misinterpreted

I play Dark Angels. Everyone that doesn't play DA is already making the joke, so I'd have to sit through the endless smugness of people's 'told you so'.

So I'd probably drop the game entirely at that point

now that said I'd absolutely LOVE to see "Codex: Fallen Angels"

Oh I'd love a 'Fallen' codex too, or proper expansion on that. It would make things a lot more fun in some regards,
Don't think it would help with the (frankly dull at this point) joke going around though. But I'd play it.
