Hello Dakka Dakka! I am determined to use Sisters Repentia in spite of their bad reputation. My tactic will be to deploy my battle sisters in their rhinos well forward and disembark them for shooting. The Repentia will be placed near my deployment table edge, and will thereafter naturally flow towards the enemies closest approaching unit. It is my hope that as my sisters pull back and fire, the Repentia will overtake them and initiate hand to hand combat. If this works, one of two things may or may not happen. The Sisters may have been charged; the Repentia will join that combat adding numbers. Or, the Repentia may over take the Sisters falling back and enter combat alone. Either way, they will enter combat without getting too shot up.

I will let you know how this tactic works out when I have a chance to execute it. It's a shame such nice models are deemed so worthless.
