I'm looking at seeing how my existing Sisters of Battle force can transition to 8th edition and ran into a small snag.

I've got 2 Superiors armed with Power Sword & Combi-Meltas, and 2 Superiors armed with a pistol and Eviscerator.

I suppose the Eviscerators can just count as extremely large chainswords.

The other 2 are a bit of a problem as currently, you can exchange the stock bolter for a melee weapon or combi-weapon and pistol can only be switched for another pistol. Looking at the GW online store, it looks like the included Superior in the Battle Sister squads are also armed with a Power Sword/Bolter combo which is also currently not a valid option.

The only model in the GW range that has a legal loadout is the sergeant with plasma pistol chainsword.

Convert them, counts as them, or just paint a bolter girl fancier. Nothing else to be done.

Maybe it is a sign of plastic sisters coming

(had to be said)

Treat the combimeltas as overly large inferno pistols? They got power armour, they can hoist it one handed and look awesome.

Either that or get out the clippers and start converting. If you mess it up just buy some more, in fact just buy a whole heap of superiors as geedub clearly believes that us sob players are made of money by the prices they charge. Go prune your money tree
