What to get next?


Recommended Posts

So I'm trying to decide what I should purchase next for my army

So far I have around 60 Bolter sisters and plenty of each special/heavy weapon sister

I have a celestine, a couple Ministorum Priests, 10 Serephim

3 Exorcists, 3 Immolators, 5 Penitent Engines

 

I was thinking a Avenger Strike Fighter or a couple cannonesses, jacobus, Arcos/Crusaders/Death Cult Assasins

Personally I've just ordered a dread and a drop pod that i'm planing to do a bit of kit bashing to make it a sisters dread, so it fits aesthetically on the table with the rest of my army if i run a castellan's list.

 

I've got a few other similar projects in mind such as a sisters bike conversion and i'm pondering how to go about converting some sisters centurions.

I've found that a Command Squad with five heavy flamethrowers is good. Short range, but if you can get a Repressor for them to run around in, they can be brutal. Units just melt in front of them. My opponents have some rather 'impolite' terms for mine. whistling.gif

And, if you take them as Retributors, you can get Rending!

There are often some Repressor kits for sale on Ebay. If you can get some of them, or cobble together your own, they make really great transports. Stormbolter, heavy flamethrower, dozer blade, front armor of 13, Shield of Faith, and the ability for up to eight people to shoot out of the back, what's not to love?biggrin.png

You can't go wrong with more seraphim. Otherwise some repressors are a good addition. As mentioned you can pick them up on eBay but I find them to be ridiculously expensive. I've made my own out of a spare rhino and some work with some plastic "for sale" sign. They're fantastic transports. The last game I had. I just had the one repressor and that av 13 tanked so much, it was great :)

 

Avenger strike fighter is a good one too. 2hp makes it a glass cannon but if the dice are with you, it will tear stuff up.

I second the Repressor statement. Especially since it's just 5 points more than an immolator with dozer blade and storm bolter..but is a much stronger transport. You lose the option of heavy bolters or multi-melta on the vehicle, but it's a scary piece of work.

Otherwise I can't really suggest anything other than perhaps Retributors. I've had a lot of success putting heavy bolters on four of them and using them like psuedo-snipers on the back line.

I myself am sort of experimenting with Castellans of the Imperium a bit and just added an infantry platoon to my army to bubblewrap Greyfax. A thunderbudgie (stormtalon) or two doesn't hurt either..but those all aren't standard sisters.

My vote is for more saraphim.

 

I prefer to take the command squad with 5 heavy bolters. They make a superb firebase without taking up valuable Exorcist and Penitent Engine slots.

Plus they easily shift from shooting down range to picking off flankers that are trying to get to your exorcists.
