Legiocustodes Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 More fighters for my impending recreation of the 1997 ‘Battle at Sanctuary 101’ have been painted this week. This time around we have a veteran sister superior and a celestian for my ever expanding Sisters of Battle Force. I usually mark out my squad leaders, veteran sisters and celestians with gold (as opppsed to silver) weapon casings and shoulder insignia as this makes them stand out from the hordes of other power armoured nuns! I gave this particular squad leader a power mace as these weapons add 2 to the bearer’s strength. This bonus is vital for sisters as it brings their paltry basic strength of 3 up to a far more respectable 5 in melee. This model’s boltgun is relatively old school and comes with a grenade launcher mounted on the underside. For gaming purposes this represents a Condemnor Boltgun in my army. Again I am pleased with how these girls have come out and I am also satisfied with the speed at which I’m painting up the two respective forces for this ‘historical’ refight (which I am really looking forward to!)

Inquisitor Eisenhorn Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I know the new models are coming, but the old Sisters models were always some of the best GW ever made. The only problem being the cost! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legiocustodes Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Yeah these girls are still lovely sculpts! But the cost is a little prohibitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
