Looking at the renders I imagine the Sisters bling is going to be moulded into the base plates and will be fairly hard to remove. But if it is a new kit and not a conversion sprue for the existing Rhino, then GW would presumably have a non blinged version on file that they used as a base.

Its total wishlisting, but...… A plastic Deimos Rhino and its variants would go really well with a HH supplement for the new version of Apocalypse.

Worked for me, I just spent a while filling it out.

Clicking the link takes me to a blank page

I'd not be too suprised to see a chaos demios rhino the next time GW did something with chaos, cause as you said simple eneugh.

ah, personally I was hoping they would migrate away from rhinos and give Sisters their own class/mark of vehicle.

I mean, who here wouldn’t have wanted to see them in a grav-skiff that floats about on a cushion of Promethium?

Hopefully GW will make the Deimos in plastic so all of the Heresy vehicles based on it can be made less expensive. Currently the Mars pattern is $37.50 & the Deimos is $59. If they make the sisters kit somewhere in the middle they would probably sell a metric shittonne of them to new players. My concern vehicle wise is how they execute the exorcist, it better be pipiest organ ever.

This Rhino looks pretty damn promising. My retired Marine Rhino that I was planning to use with the new SOB will look a tad out of place though.

Also, I am sure nothing is stopping anyone from using this new kit to represent a Chaos or Marine Rhino if they so wish.

Loving it so far. Always did love Sisters vehicle iconography.

Love the look of the exhaust, panels would fit right in next to an Exorcist. Not sure what I think of a PenEngine you can't drop and break your foot with... No word on Repressors. Staying Forgeworld or lost all together?

Repressors have been out of production from FW for a while, haven't they? An option for a rhino to mount a heavy flamer and storm bolter would cover the crossover, wouldn't it?

This would be awesome.

I actually don't like the Deimos pattern compared to the regular pattern; the big difference is the glacis which looks much better on the regular one. In this case, I definitely don't want the regular version replaced, since it looks much better than the HH version.

Also, as a side note, unless the current Rhino pattern was introduced more recently than M36, shouldn't we be using the newer pattern?



I'm actually surprised they're re-doing the tank kits, though. The Immolator is currently a fully plastic kit, I expected them to just pass over it and maybe re-box it. I might buy some new tanks if they look good [though I have more tanks than I can use], or if they're of kinds that I don't already have.

I'd love them to have Demos pattern Rhinos - they *look* faster and more aggressive.

I like the current Immolator pretty well though - maybe I should buy one before it disappears.

They're being quite careful with these articles not to mention anything which isn't currently available in the Index.

While I'm not expecting the Repressor to appear, I'm not going to rule it out as a possibility just because it didn't get a mention in this article

Having both deimos and normal rhino for my heresy army, deimos is so much better, should have gone with them from the start and spend few bucks more.

Same with heresy era bikes, they are so much better than normal 40k bikes.

Actually most of heresy era stuff looks better to me...okay, deredeo is weak link in the chain.

Well the main story is it is confirmed that a box of Battle Sisters is going to cost you £35.

Pleasant surprise that one.

Yeah, not brilliant. Tolerable, if it's 10 models, but obviously less would have been preferable. I'm just glad the army I'm collecting will be 3rd Edition sized. EDIT: Wait, people think 35 quid is a good price? Crikey the Stockholm Syndrome really has set in at this point eh

35 pounds is the standard price for ten man troops boxes in 2019, isn't it? Like Chaos Marines or Primaris. So not really surprising, but of course still good to know.

Just don't expect me to cheer for that kind of price.

I'd say it's a good price if a squad of Sisters is now 15 models for some reason. For 10 I'd use the word tolerable. But I'm not madly happy about another army where everything costs me that much...

As expected with how the new CSMs were priced, ah well.

Well at 35£ I predict 4 things

- 10 Sisters
- 32mm bases
- Weapon options for Squad leader
- Couple of heavy weapons and special weapons

How much does 35$ usually translate to in euro? If two boxes are similarly priced in £, does that usually mean they'll get the same price in € or is it sometime different in €?

I'll agree with three out of four - not sure whether we'll see a change in base size, though.

What do you think we'll see on the special/heavy front? One of each of the trinity for each slot, if we're lucky?

Well I was expecting price hike so them staying at same price as recent 10 man squads was pleasant surprise.

I was expecting 40£ as a minimum.

Will be getting at least one or two of the new rhinos- go with my Sheildwolf Sisters vehicles and the older ones.

Be more interesting to have a dedicated Sisters of Silence,Inquisition and Ad Mech versions of the Rhino than pile yet more on more stuff to the bloated Marine ranges.

35 pounds translate to 45€, like the recent Chaos Space Marines and Chaos Terminators.

Well 32mm is bit "if" but I expect that these models are bit bigger which I think translate in having bigger bases.

As for weaponry I expect Storm bolter, Melta and Flamer are available and as for heavier weaponry heavy bolter and either multi-melta or heavy flamer. But I do hope for more options like missile launcher and such. .

I wouldn't read too much into the quoted price - they're probably legally obliged to put in a nominal value of the prize.

I would be surprised if we do not, given that Sisters of Silence are on 32mm bases. It's possible that they will be on 25mm bases, but I think GW is moving towards 32s for as much as they realistically can.

Flamer, Melta, some kind of new specialized boltgun that is used as a special slot(maybe the crossbow combi bolter?)
Heavy Bolter, Multimelta, Heavy Flamer.

the rhino's looks aces, the heritek on the PE head looks fantastic and will fit right in in a Dark Mechanicum army. I can't wait for the Sisters to be released. I really regerts selling my SoB army all those years ago here on Dakka.
