Commisarp Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Well, it's gone midnight in the UK, so I've got my digital copy of the forgeworld book.The Repressor is a WS 5+ W12 RhinoWith a Heavy Flamer, Stormbolter and a Dozer Ram.Dozer Ram is S: User (so 6) AP -1. Against infantry you get three hit rolls for each attack on the turn you charge. (So effectively nine attacks on the charge if undamaged)Also, and this is big Fire points. Up to six models (armed with whatever) can shoot out. They count as moving if the vehicle moved. It's also unaccountably two points cheaper than a Rhino base. But you have to pay for the Heavy flamer, so it's 15 points more expensive than the Rhino overall.Oh, yes, you can buy it an additional storm bolter or heavy flamer, if you really would like.Nothing else for us in this book. Flyers in the IG book which is out next week. WAR, Atrus and Servant of Dante 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hod Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Thank you. The shooting out is huge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Dawnstar Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Doesn't that mean you can stick on the second Heavy Flamer and essentially have a substantially better Immolation Flamer Immolator for only a handful of points more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commisarp Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Yeah, a double heavy flamer repressor is 4 points more than an Immolation Flamer Immolator. Which is a little silly, for that four points you get:Fire pointsThe RamMore WoundsMore transport capacity.A StormbolterBut, you do lose out on flamer range. The Repressor mounts normal Heavy Flamers with an 8" range. Immolation flamers have a 12" range. Also, not sure how you would model on that extra Hvy Flamer.

Servant of Dante Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Wow, those are some sweet rules! It's too bad I don't own any repressors :P Brace yourselves for marine players complaining about how OP it is It's nice that we get something so unique in this edition (fire points), and it sounds like it can almost hold its own in cc but it does feel a but undercosted. Not sure what the logic was there. Maybe they just feel bad for us because we're Sisters :D Thanks for the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commisarp Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Thing with fire points. I mean, they rock. But they do anti-synergise with our faith mechanic a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Servant of Dante Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) Thing with fire points. I mean, they rock. But they do anti-synergise with our faith mechanic a little bit. true. It isn't fun, but now you can (arguably) advance with the repressor and fire flamers/meltaguns from inside the vehicle when before you were limited to 6" if you wanted to really use the fire points (vs 12+d6" now) Oh, and do note that the Immolation flamer is an assault weapon while the heavy flamer is a heavy weapon, so you can't fire the repressor's flamer(s) if you advance.

dracpanzer Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Couldn't have gotten better news. Was a bit worried that now that I have all six of my Repressor conversions complete 8ed would put an end to my fun. Now back to work on getting my Seraphim ranks up to 60 girls.

grimsanity Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I may have missed it but what's the transport capacity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Dawnstar Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 It's the full ten. Funnily enough it only costs 2 points to give a Repressor a Storm Bolter rather than the 4 we'd normally pay. Hooray for consistency! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimsanity Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I need to invest in more repressors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atrus Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Are they Adepta Sororitas keyworded? Or they just Imperium keywirded so any imperium faction can use it (latter would be lame :( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Dawnstar Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) They have the same Keywords as the other Sororitas transports and can only transport <Order> Infantry. Edited June 17, 2017 by Brightstar Atrus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you have to pay for the Heavy flamer, so it's 15 points more expensive than the Rhino overall. That is... remarkably powerful. Kind of a no brainer replacement for the rhino. Are many of the the forgeworld units like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drider Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I've been meaning to put together a 3d printable conversion for it for a while. Looks like i'm going to have to pull the finger out on that. OrdoMilitaris 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montford Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) Doesn't that mean you can stick on the second Heavy Flamer and essentially have a substantially better Immolation Flamer Immolator for only a handful of points more? The difference is range. The Immolation Flamer has 4" more. Edited June 18, 2017 by Montford981 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
