I'm relatively new to Sisters, looking for any insight or CC on this list to improve upon it. The idea is the 2 Retributors Strategically Reserve along with the Seraphim Deepstriking. The Repentia and priest/cannoness ride in rhinos, the immolators contain the sisters and dominions with the flamers. Looking at having a strong push on turn 2 when the Retributers come in from reserves and then sending in the Repentia, the mortifiers can threaten a turn 1 charge with good miracle dice or can provide decent early game fire support. The idea with the Dominion squad was to be able to activate the holy trinity strat for +1 to wound on the flamers, don't know if this is actually good or not though.

Hey, seems like a solid plan, although, if you want to go with repentia bomb, why not bloody rose? The order of our martyred lady requires bigger squads and a hospitaller to benefit the most from the +1 to hit after casualties. I also thought that the squad can only take 2x special weapon or heavy weapon with 10 models in squad.

Just looked over the codex entries, I don't see anything restricting special/heavy weapons to squad size.

I have it in martyred lady to try out Junith who's buffs look really sweet. I was considering bloody rose still unsure between the two, leaning towards giving Junith a chance.

As for the bigger squads, I was mostly just min maxing the weapons and I thought martyred lady wanted units to die for miracle dice. I'm not really experienced with them so should I be angling to have bigger squads to benefit more from the +1 to hit instead?

Ok, my bad, I probably mixed the rules from marines regarding special weapon load-out. The order of our martyred lady is also my favourite, min-maxing is usually efficient with sisters, but 5-model squads are too fragile to benefit from order traits. Gaining one miracle dice is good, but the army has alot of ways to generate them anyway. If you want to bring down something big, like a Knight or mortarion, multimeltas are your best bet.
