Saint Celestine (conversion of nightbringer, giant feathery wings and base model)

5 Battle Sisters with 2 melta-guns (with inquisitor)
5 Battle Sisters

5 Seraphims, 2x2 hand flamers, superior with power-sword
5 Seraphims, 2x2 hand flamers, superior with powersword
5 Seraphims, 2x2 inferno pistols, superior

Exorcist with Storm Bolter
Exorcist with Storm Bolter

Allied Inquisitor

Ordo Xenos, power armour, liber heresies, 2 servo skulls, 2 needle pistols, Rad grenades, plasma sython

Couple of quick questions:
1) Can the inq throw the rad grenade
2) Should I drop the servo skulls since where I need to deepstrike will be populated anyway
3) Can the inquisitor take the 5 sisters scouting with him from the liber
4) Does preferred enemy from prayers benefit the inquisitor
5) Can it win

Thanks in advance ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8317598.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8317598.page GMT [1000] - First Sisters of battle list
I am not a fan of the 3 x 5 Seraphim units. I would take one 10 woman squad to escort St. Celestine.

If you have the models, go for dominions. They can also scout and can ignore cover. They make sure something is dead.

It also seems like you have a LOT of points sunk into the Inquisitor. If his (or her) point is to generate servo skulls and scout, you can ditch some of the other stuff. The rad grenades will never get used as your INQ is on foot, being escorted at best by 5 T3 models. Either get them in vehicles or blob up with a priest for fearless.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8318269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8318269.page GMT [1000] - First Sisters of battle list

Hey, was thinking of doing a sisters army since I had a really cool idea for models so I wrote up this list, could I please get some insight on how you think it'd perform, any wargear shuffles, and what colour schemes you've seen that work well on sisters (since I dislike the black armour).

Even in low points games there is a hilariously good chance your sisters get nuked off the board turn one and you lose before your reserves come in. Drop the Inq and at least 2(inferno pistols make them crappy dominions anyway) seraphim (and the storm bolters on the exorcists) pick up a squad of melta dominions with a combi-melta and 3 multi-melta immolators. HQ changes based off what army you're playing, eldar,tau, other sisters, or deamons go cannoness with mantle and rosarius, anything else solo celestine is still amazing for dicing up hordes, avoiding str 6 means they can't even really hurt her, a melee with a 20 man blob of meqs is just kill some, hit and run, flame, kill them again.

The other thing you can do is cut enough points for 10+ blob squads with double special weapons and preists for fearless. 2 Exorcists are mandatory in all lists though.

Your army is neither of those things.

Keep in mind that 3+ armour doesn't mean anything at all these days since it's all about volume of mid strength poor AP fire since it's the way to answer low armour, high armour or any non AV14 vehicle. Being T3, you're being wounded on 2's by most things that matter, and still wounded on 3's by boltguns.

Also, your sister superiors are WS3, initiative 3 and str 3, giving them power swords is a terrible idea.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8319048.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8319048.page GMT Re:[1000] - First Sisters of battle list

Waste the last 10 points however you want, my suggestion would be a combi melta on the dominion sister superior since they're only gonna get 1 round of shooting outside the rhino anyway.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8319628.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8319628.page GMT [1000] - First Sisters of battle list

You still have no way of protecting your meagre troops, you can only take 2 specials per squad on seraphim and the inquisitor is still a waste.

I don't have that many rhino chassis's, I've only enough for those two exorcists, the inquisitor is the way I put a little of myself in the game since he's a dual wielding pistol badass, is there anyway I could get him to work? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8319646.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/673279/8319646.page GMT
