HQ - 170 total

CCS - Creed and Mast. of Ord. - 170 pts

Troops - 135 total

PCS - 30 pts
- Attached Infantry with a vox caster - 55pts
- Attached Infantry - 50pts

Heavy Support - 310 total

Leman Russ Squadron:

- Leman Russ Battle Tank - 150
- Leman Russ Eradicator 160pts (anti infantry)


Sisters Ally: - 215 pts

Canoness with storm bolter and Rosarius - 65pts
- Storm Bolter 5pts
- Rosarious 15pts
Sororitas Command Squad - 65 Pts
- With Hospitaller - 10pts
- Sacred Banner - 40pts
- 3x storm bolters - 15pts

Total for the army is 830. I'm debating on whether to add some heavy weapons teams also. My concern is that I don't really have any units that would be good for close combat. The sisters with the canoness would be better than anything I currently have for CC, but not great. I'm considering bringing Uriah or Celestine, but I can only have one allied HQ, and I don't have the Arcos to go with Uriah.

I'm also thinking about dropping the sacred banner (+1 atk 12" radius). I don't have any CC anyway, no sense in wasting 40 points on it. I'm also wondering if I should even bring an ally at all, Sisters can't take most orders from IG, and IG don't benefit from acts of faith (but they can benefit from a sisters' priest's war hymns in sub fight stage (Uriah)). I could just bring Celestine and have her scout and outflank as per Creed's special rule, then troll the other teams big stuff, but with T3, she is going to go down in a hurry during shooting (even with her single 3-wound rez).

I'm trying to stay Hammer and Anvil, but with the point restriction, I'm thinking I should just drop the allies, and go shooty guard, maybe add some vets or something? I don't know who I will be going up against, so I need to have a pretty diversified army. Any suggestions would be appreciated. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6246950.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6246950.page GMT
No heavy weapons for your Infantry squads?
I would de-squad your Leman Russes since you have the slots.

You also need a second troop for your primary detachment.

At 850, I would keep it a lot simpler:

CCS with Autocannon - 60
PCS with 3 Melta - 115
Infantry with AC/Melta - 70
Infantry with AC/Melta - 70
PCS with Autocannon - 40
Infantry with AC/Melta - 70
Infantry with AC/Melta - 70
Leman Russ - 150
Aegis with Icarus - 85
Vendetta - 120

That sets you up for a better army later.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6247036.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6247036.page GMT
I don't own any Aegis or a Vendetta, which is why I was sticking with hammer/anvil guard.

The sisters I was going to keep in the back until assaulted, the storm bolters were for extra shooting in the interim. I agree that I probably need HW more than an allied detachment, but I still don't feel like I have any CC units. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6247053.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6247053.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6247058.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563001/6247058.page GMT
