I basically bought everything I could pre-lockdown, am currently painting it, and plan to buy the rest soon. At least once of every "proper" Sororitas kit, except the rhino. I bought several of the previous rhino+immolator kit to use as rhino because I dislike the new rhino kit.
I plan to replace all my infantry with plastic, so does that count as starting a new army? Or not?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934048.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934048.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood

I *hated* the flamer/melta only combos they used to have. And their Exorcist made me want to throw things. They are so gloriously impractical. My personal head cannon was always they were normal Whirlwinds with fancy names like Stalin's Organ. Sure maybe there is one or two stained glass monstrosities on display but the fighting vehicles were more practical.

I'm tempted by the new plastics but I'm literally still painting my 2nd Ed and RT minis so new ones are a no-no. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934229.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934229.page GMT Re:Sisters of Battle new blood

Would never have done that had they stayed as metal, and if the plastics had been bad, wouldn't have either. But the renders on their website convinced me very early on that I'd get some.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934449.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934449.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934474.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934474.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934520.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934520.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood

I can't say I started Sisters because of the new models, because I already played Sisters before the metal models came out. Not for as long as many of the other people who say the same, but hey, the sculpts [and given how I got some of them, some of the models in my army themselves!] are only a few years younger than me.

I didn't pick up all the new plastic stuff [I did pick up the big starter box, though], mostly because I already already have almost anything I could need already in metal and I'm not planning to restart the army [there's also a few re-do's that I don't like, notably the new Immolator and Exorcist, so I'm happy I have lots of the old kind]. I'm really tempted to pick up 30 new Repentia though, the new plastic ones look soo much better than the metal ones, and a good number of both my Repentia and Seraphim are broken off their bases because their connection point is really tiny.

Zephyrim are on the slate for "eventually" for me. I might also need to get some MM Rets if MM's get that good.



That said, I really do hope that the plastic release and generally very pretty plastic models has got more people into the army. We were pretty rare, before, and hopefully more popularity will lead to more support.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934521.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934521.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934550.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934550.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934554.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934554.page GMT Re:Sisters of Battle new blood http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934558.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934558.page GMT Sisters of Battle new blood
Heck who knows perhaps one day I'll turn her into a modest army. The models are certainly impressive and they not only present new designs but keep a lot of the old gothic themes and feels of the original models. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934570.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934570.page GMT Re:Sisters of Battle new blood But that said - I was bought the Flying Pulpit of Flamey Goodness Junith Eruita model as a present to paint, and I have to admit that I probably would have ended up getting one myself just as a fun project, because that model is nuts and awesome in equal measure. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934575.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792269/10934575.page GMT
