So, I recently got my hands on a 3D Printer (I have the best wife) and I realized, looking around the internet, that STL files inspired by the SoB are very common (I'm guessing the rather long spell without new models had something to do with that.) It got me thinking that it might be time to start a new army and print a nice model or two for it to look unique and fancy. This led to a fury of list building and I quickly fell in love with Bloody Rose and my favorite models in the sister's line, Zeryphim.
This list was the result:
Brigade (Bloody Rose):
No Org Slot:
Inquisitor Karamazov
HQ:
Canoness - Warlord (Beacon of Faith), Plasma Pistol, Power Sword, and Rod of Office
Canoness - Plasma Pistol, Power Sword, and Rod of Office
Canoness - Bolt Pistol, Chainsword (Beneficence), Heroine in the Making (Righteous Rage)
Troops:
6x Battle Sisters x5 - Storm Bolter x2
Elite:
Imagnifer - Tale of the Stoic, Tale of the Warrior, and Venerated Saint
Preacher - Chainsword and Laspistol
2x Zephryim x10
Fast Attack:
2x Seraphim Squad - Inferno Pistols x2
Seraphim Squad - Hand Flamers x2
Heavy Support:
Retributor Squad x10 - Multimelta x4 and Armourium Cherub x2
Retributor Squad x10 - Heavy Bolter x4 and Armourium Cherub x2
Retributor Squad x10 - Heavy Flamer x4 and Armourium Cherub x2
Battle Plan:
Basic sisters exist to move up and take objectives. Heavy flamer and multimeltas move up to dakka things, escorting characters. Seraphim deep strike in to blast away or take objectives. Zephryim go on a rampage, hopefully supported by murder canones and/or preacher and/or imagnifer. If the Zephryim out pace them (which will no doubt happen often) then they'll make sure that the sisters and retributors are a pain to get close to.
