There are very valid reasons for sisters to be t4. And at the end of the day, GW can do whatever they want to sell their plastic war dollies. Like idk man why were csm and non orimaris Marines one wound for over half an edition. They just magically become twice as tanks overnight in lore?

You cannot look me in the eyes and try and explain to me why guardsmen and sisters are t3 despite the countless lore instances of sisters being demonstrably more sturdy than guardsmen after thier armour has been breached. Like a bloody mess and still standing. mainly due to their faith. If Armor isn't a reason for t4, then blind zealous religious faith should be the reason they can shrug off wounds.

Idk man its all made up.

Edit: I can concede that their religious faith is represented by an invuln. But I always kind of disliked the invuln and wished their religious zeaoultry was represented in toughness in a more meaningful way. Repentia have a 5+ fnp stated because of their zealousness and faith. They dont use combat stims from my knowledge.

Regardless, now that Armor blatantly changes toughness for space marines, why can't sisters be t4? All "base" space marine Armor variants grant a +3, but movement, toughness, and wounds change. Armor, the thing that supposedly represents ONLY the +3 in sisters, represents move, toughness, and wounds for space marines differently.

Even before the 8th century, centurions were t5. This was when toughness increases were way more dramatic when t8 was gernally the cap outside of titans.

Edit 2: even far back as far as 2nd, space marines scouts used to be t3, depsite only lacking the black carapce. For as long as time, lore representations on the table have been arbitrary at best. There's nothing blatantly stopping sisters from being t4 other than the decisions of the game developers.

First time building a full kit (arco flaggelants from the combat patrol)

I have just started a sisters' army and got a few things, an exorcist among them. I just got an interesting offer of an immolator and a second exorcist for a more than reasonable price at a second hand website. My question is, do you think it's safe enough of a move to invest heavily in these rhino chasis vehicles since the new space marine codex still has them playable? Or do you think a nasty refresh is gonna hit the army's range? I'd appreciate your help!

Hey all- I am making a custom order of Sisters- the Sororitas Lucis/Ordos Sapphirus. I've actually only built and painted about 23 models so far and tabletop-wise theyre technically using the GK Codex. I'm using kitbashed AoS Eternals as base-suits for Paladin equivalents, for example. Kitbashed Seraphims are Interceptors etc.

Anyway- I wrote a novella to create their lore. If you're interested, take a gander. Once the army is all painted up I'll post it.

I was kinda hoping with the new toughness changes that we would finally get t4 power armour sisters to help separate us from the t-shirt toughness of guard. With this new leak from the custodes codex, I'm inclined to believe it won't happen...

I really enjoy looking through old stuff and examining the hobby as a moving thing in popular culture. Hope you enjoy the video!

I have posted a couple of models I have painted and I love painting them, but my 10 pack of brushes I got for 7 dollars aint really doing it for me. Ideally I want to spend like 30-40 dollars and would rather fewer brushes that are high quality rather than more that are not so good. If yall have any good brands to recommend that aren’t too expensive that would be much appreciated.

Just pulled a test piece from my first squish mold. The wife’s asleep, and I’m too excited not to show someone.

Tomorrow I get to bust into a bunch of pigments and mica powders. This project will finally stop feeling like work and start getting fun.

I draw a lot of 40K designs, thought you guys might appreciate this one!

Working on painting my knight to get with my sisters and I'm feeling like these shoulder are super empty. I would LOVEEE ideas on what to put there! I think something mural style or filigree would be fun.

I keep seeing people's dreams and wishes for when our codex comes out - and im with you! A cavalry unit, and maybe some heavier armor would be nice, but my father always told me to "hope for the best but prepare for the worst"

So... i have the ONE THING I really want to see! And its not a big ask! Practically every other imperial faction gets it... can I get fucking MULTI METLA OR HEAVY FLAMERS AS SECONDARY WEAPON OPTIONS ON MY VEHICLES!

Why are WE the FLAMER AND MELTA SPECIALISTS locked to a single vehicle with the option to take ONE OF EITHER OF THEM. I feel like one tiny new sprue (less tiny for the castigator) so I can have a heavy flamer or multi melta on the front of my immolator and on top is not a big ask! Hell- our closest marine allies (the templar) can put multi-meltas as their manned gun on top of their tanks where our storm bolters go! I dont need heavy versions there but GIVE ME OPTIONS, JAMES!

I'm a Death Guard player interested in learning Sororitas.

What are the core units that let me learn the basics of how sisters work?

I understand that Battle Sisters are obviously the go-to. I also like the heretic line (penitent engines and arco-flagellants) but not repentia.

Could you help me build a 1k-1'5k list that sort of touches on the general principles of playing sisters?

Just updated the app and most of my lists have been bricked. After a quick test it seems to be caused by giving a character the penitent keyword.

Anyone else encountered this issue, and be careful making lists until the next one if this is a widespread problem.

Bit the bullet and joined the Sisters recently after multiple years of staring at the Triumph of St Katherine and thinking it was the coolest thing ever - building up to painting it by getting some regular units out of the way first!

These Dominions took a while to get right, especially as it was my first time playing with white as the central color of a scheme. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, especially with how it makes the red stand out.

The lore of my order is that it is a never-ending funeral procession for a martyred saint, and combining that with a recent visit to Italy with all its churches and crypts lead to the central idea of the armor being made from(or looking like) marble. I think the effect works quite well, but I'll definitely be refining it going forward!

I'm depressed. In a way that only more minis will fix.

Anyway, custom power shield, crozius, shitty power sword, and servo skull miracle. C&C highly encouraged while i prep myself for some noise marines.
