So I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but I thought I would double check. Is there any way I can transport Sisters of Silence in a Valkyrie?

In a word, no. If a more detailed explanation is desired I can provide one on request.

Just Null-Maiden Rhinos and the FW Drill, right?

Their presence makes the pilot deeply uneasy, which is not conducive to safe operation of the aircraft.

Only the rhino, the drill doesn't allow the sisters to ride it

In a few days, this may all change. Sisters of silence are getting a rules update in the next white dwarf.
I expect a few more transport options may emerge... but we wont know until it comes out... 4 more days friends
|
As an aside, as "infinite" rolls is actually impossible even if the FAQ "allows" it, then it will always be a non-zero chance to pass them all. Eventually the two players will die. If they pass the game on to their decendents, they too will eventually die. And, at the end of it all, the universe will experience heat death and it, too, will die. In the instance of "infinite" hits, we're talking more of functional infinity, rather than literal.
RAW you can't pass the game onto descendants, permissive ruleset. Unless we get an FAQ from GW.

Are they getting a rules update though? The Dark Angels white dwarf index was just fluff, hobby, and a mission.

From the White Dwarf preview on Warhammer Community:
As if that wasn’t enough, there are also up-to-date datasheets and points values for the three varieties of Silent Sister squads, as well as their bespoke transport, the Null-Maiden Rhino.
I still don't see them allowing them to ride in a Valkyrie.

Don’t they also have a FW transport? Or is that 30K only? What’s with the pistol things one of their units can take from FW as well?

In 40K, Sisters of Silence have four units available to them. Prosecutors (Boltguns), Vigilators (Executioner greatblades), Witchseekers (Flamers) and the Null-Maiden Rhino. As of right now, anything else from Forge World is 30K only.

Given that the preview /teaser doesn't even suggest that they're getting any stratagems (etc.), expecting any new units is wildly over optimistic!

No new units,
But maybe a similar rule to inquisitors who can go in different transports... one can hope lol.
Either way, I am excited to see what ends up in there.

Hopefully more than just reprinting the index entries as a part of invalidating the index.

Sounds like very minor changes - maybe a relic, a couple of strats. Eventually might get some new units or a Custodes treatment and the 30k units for 40k.

Yeah, up-to-date doesn't scream "rework" to me... But we'll see, could be new rules!

I've got the new white dwarf in hand. If I could award less than zero points for effort this would get it.
At first it looks like a straight up reprint of the index with the chapter approved costs and the no- hq vanguard detachment rule, but upon closer inspection GW have taken it upon themselves to nerf the psyk-out grenades.

I see GW has decieded that if it aint primaris it's just getting soft squatted with naff rules support until they can bin them off as no-ones buying the models.

It's almost as if people haven't noticed that White Dwarf content has been almost universally poor for years now. When they'll just reprint the entire 7th ed. Officio Assassinorum supplement while implying that it is new content, why would you expect anything else here?
It's baffling that people still act surprised by stuff like this.
