The sisters look amazing, and im totally psyched they have arcos in the set. Im sorely tempted but, as with all other big boxes of multiple kits, id be extremely worried about the condition of the details on the models once I received them. Ive lost count of the number of times ive had to have stuff replaced because of crushed faces, mutliple flattened rivets etc

Getting damaged models in the box AKA "Winning the GW Lottery"?

I've never not had them just send me a whole new sprue, giving me two models for the price of one, one of hwich i have to repair.

Whoa, whoa, scroll up, who/what are Lady Harrow’s Mournflight?

Try as far back as 3rd. The point is the Adepta Sororitas needs reliable longer range firepower. No one wants to pay 150 points for a single weapon tank that fires once each round for 2 plus rounds.

Necrons say "hi". They don't have any good AT that doesn't roll d6 or d3 for shots.

Like I said no one wants to pay for that.

Mind you, the ogre team name is completely incorrect, so relying on these posts as indicative of anything isn't the best bet.

It’s the banshee half of Dreadfane.

And we know that's happened before. See: the Eel rides from the fish elves.

I'm not saying it's 100% garunteed to be correct, but that has been discussed and dismissed as proof of fakery.

**AngryAngel80**

Either way feels pretty juicy as news goes to me. Everyone take it with salt currently.

As well didn't see it mentioned here but the cost of the Sisters box looked to be 210 not sure if that is USD or not but that figure was floating out there with info involved along with this release schedule.

**Us3Less**

Just played a tournament at a local GW shop and the owner of the place could not inform me about the price of the new Sisters box, which was definitely not €179 nor €181. Make of that what you want

. For reference/price conversions, Blood of the Phoenix is €180 here.

(And also yet another total rework of the faith system, yawn)

If true that's a HUUUUUGE buuf. Going from "1 to 6 shots", to "3 to 9 shots", with a distribution more centered on the average (which is, now, 6).
But it's a random user on the bad forum so...

Ooh that is nice. I hope they do the same thing to all other variable shot weapons.
1 d6 shots and 1 d6 damage is a crap system that hurts heavy weapons.

**Bubbles420**

I think based on recent pricing we can expect anything from £140-180 based on recent pricing. Would like to be pleasantly surprised but csnt see it somehow

I briefly saw a new PA story article, but now it's missing.

Edit: And now it's back, but still no Sisters.

I don't have it here!

Cherubs: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/10/28/battle-sister-bulletin-part-19-cherubs/

Stated as being the penultimate bulletin by the way.

**ClockworkZion**

And no sight of the Exorcist or Immolator kits. I'm wondering if they're holding off on showing those because they'll be a wave 2 release later.

**A.T.**

Penultimate preview and we finally have the sisters first new and confirmed rule (albeit one that was leaked months ago).

The space marine armorium cherub. 5 points to shoot a heavy bolter one extra time per game.

**Voss**

Great. Those are rather big wastes of sprue-space. How many special or heavy weapons could they have fit in instead?

**Hollow**

Don't look like a waste of space to me. I like them a lot, they are original faction unique little additions that will appeal to the majority of people who buy GW products. (Not gamers)

Nurglings, Cherubs and Gnoblars are NEVER a waste of sprue space.

10 thropy racks for Chaos Terminators are. (Specially when the box brings literally one of each weapon even basic ones)

**ClockworkZion**

We don't know that the Cherubs will be "useless" either. I could see a unit unlocking a Simulacrum once per game for a bonus, or a Canoness taking one for extra attacks (like an Attack Squig bonus).

And at minimum they have a utility in Retributor squads, and can make for some decent objective markers.

They're certainly not unique.

Marines already have armourium cherubs, for example; the plastic Librarian has a little friend; the Inquisition had three different models a decade and a half ago, back before they were purged.

**Kid_Kyoto**

It says we can READ about them next month, implying the models won't be released. My guess is a $25 box of cherubs.

**Hybrid Son Of Oxayotl**

That's very cool, I love it.
Especially, this picture hints very strongly at a new unit that is more than just cherub:

Perhaps that 'final climactic installment' coming in two weeks will bring the firepower.

I still don't understand how a baby carrying a melta bomb makes you shoot twice.

Or, like the Haywire Mines and Armorium Cherub in the Devastator set, they will come with whatever unit can take them.

It's not a melta bomb, it's Emperor's Own chicken noodle soup.

**Hybrid Son Of Oxayotl**

So, we have:

- Symbol/text/loud speaker cherubs, maybe act of faith bonus, maybe moral bonus
- Censer cherub, ???
- Simulacrum Imperialis key-holder, ???
- Ammo cherub, like in the marine codex? What do those do exactly?

5 points, discard the cherub to allow one model in the unit to shoot twice.

Sounds HIGHLY motivating to me...

Can we use it as ablative wound instead? Because for that cost you get a whole new heavy bolter! And Sisters don't get access to the STUPID NEW WEAPON THAT MAKE CLASSIC, ICONIC WEAPONS LOOK STUPIDLY WEAK LIKE THE STUPID NEW CSM ROTOR CANNON OR WHATEVER IT'S CALLED!
Yeah I'm salty about those stupid weapons.

And that's why, Captain, you'll never make Chapter Master.
