Because people have only just purchased the codex and the content could've been included there?

Sisters are quite strong actually, their codex is also the only '2.0' codex apart from SM. I don't believe they need an increase in power and GW have never said that PA was about boosting the power of a faction either, as far as I'm aware.

How can you say they deserve more than a faction such as Dark Eldar that had their codex 12 months, more perhaps, than PA?

Hopefully if they get anything it's just custom order traits, like Dark Eldar.

I think that Custom order traits would be a great little bit for Sisters and be "enough" without it being manitory - best of both worlds.

Obviously nothing has been boosted to the same extent as Marines....

As a new sisters player I'd welcome some optional stuff, I just wouldn't want or expect straight buffs from PA, that way I'm not being punished for missing out on it.

But at least we can all be happy that nobody else has had the marine boost.

Right. Let's just leave sisters behind others again just for fun of it eh? Why so salty enough to wish faction be worse than others?

To be fair Dark Eldar also got some new rules - debatable value but hey....

Everyone else is having a similar thing to custom traits and similar so I think that a new option for Custom Order traits for Sisters is fine - we also have not had name charts but who cares about that waste of page space.

Excepting Marine Supers special tier of course which obviously have to have more of everything everywhere

Some factions are still langusihing without their Chapter tactcis affecting all units for no reason.

TRADITION!

Eh, tradition is a couple of months after the Codex, so it looks like we're breaking with tradition here.

Shame GK have been done already, as Sisters/GK/DW vs. Something could have made for an interesting story with ties back tot he Inquisition.

Since the rest of the Sisters range is confirmed as coming out in March, I'm wondering if Sisters will be in Saga of the Beast alongside Orks and Space Wolves.

Leave sisters behind? They have the most recent codex and the newest model line. They are literally the most modern faction in the game as of now. They are also one of the strongest factions in a competitive sense. Please explain why you believe they'd be 'left behind' without PA rules?

You don't get to jump on the beleaguered Sisters bandwagon just because you have purchased their newer models Tneva. It's not a ticket to excuse your incessant negativity to all things GW

On GW's Warhammer 40,000 Facebook page in the post sharing the Warhammer TV painting Sisters video.

Well given we have the Wolves always win and will have to save the Sisters plus the inevitable bloat of dozens of the same old reprinted marine dataslates that would not be good for either the narrative or the rules - although at least custom Orders does not take up much room

Personally im waiting on Custodes and Necrons.

Custodes don't even have a ruleset that includes anything like chapter tactics last I checked.

Their winrate is honestly pretty crappy. I dont see them as anywhere near SM quality. Worse wr than necrons atm

How old is the latest Marine codex and the Supplements.....

Yes, we know. You think Orks should have tons of very good very powerful stuff in PA and Sisters should get nothing. Orks are obviously more popular, yadda yadda.

AAE is spot on tbh, as a consumer of new sisters stuff, I'll be annoyed if I have a borderline mandatory expansion that could have been included. It's not about orks getting loads of stuff, it's about not releasing an intentionally incomplete codex.

They seemed to do well at LVO considering how new their codex is and how many of their models aren't even released. They're no Marines, obviously. Seems pretty obvious they're Mid-Upper tier to me but time will tell.

Oh I'm with you, but that didn't go down well with the Marine OR the non-Marine players. A proper feth up by GW was that.

Hybrid seems to have an obsession with dropping Ad Hominems on me as often as he can, regardless of how off topic or senseless they are.

Not at all sadly, my other army being red corsairs I got the short end of the stick with psychic awakening anyway, I wasn't buying faith and fury for 2 pages of daemons weapons, I'll just go without

I don't know.

Oh well, picked up Greater Good and a bit miffed by how thin this one is, especially when it's the same price as a regular codex. But at least I can mess about with the Guard stuff and scrape together an armoured regiment at long last.

All the pa books have been uneven. Csm didn't get custom traits. De and gsc got little of consequence. Gw is playing favorites.

I honestly allready found F&F rather thin for the asking price, but atleast it allowed me and my non legion painted warbands and armies to get a varia of rules in use that might actually work out, overall though i am not particulary happy with PA. The lore seems in the best cases meh and in the worst cases rushed, the content is quite stacked for some and a must have (CSM / SM vs DE f.e.)

Maybe that's what you need to do. If you can't handle us criticizing GW, with VERY legit concerns at that, maybe you shouldn't be looking to get your news and conversation from a public forum.

Aww bless, someone was easily triggered.

Besides, part of a public forum is dealing with opposing opinions, I'm not going anywhere.

Yeah, but not nearly as dickish as releasing a "new" codex with only a couple new data sheets....
