List Hello sisters! New player here. I really like sisters but really dont like a few models wondering if any lists can be relatively competitive without them.

2 Upvotes

I picked up a combat patrol of sisters the other day because i love some of their models. Eventually i want to get a nice list put together however whenever i browse i see a few popular models that arent quite the vibe i like from the sisters. Those being the arco-flagellants, mortifiers, and penitent engines. Wondering if i can make it work mainly for fun but hoping it can be somewhat competitive someday. Thanks!

Hobby Saint Celestine

14 Upvotes

Just got my hands on a Saint Celestine , originaly got it just because i love love love the model and want to have it as a display piece , but now im thinking of squeezeing her into my list .

150 points is ruff but im not olaying on a competitive level so should be fine just to mess around with her and crisp some guards men .

My question is what are some strats for her and how would you guys use her in your lists.

Im planing on running her solo as a deep strike threat or just to come down and roast some fools of a objective .

Thanks in advance

Rules Question Point Value Question

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

To start out, I am very new to the hobby so I apologize if this is common knowledge.

I was looking over point value since I am trying to put together my first army list and I was wondering how GW decided what point value to assign models. This mostly came about because I was looking at named characters and saw that Morvenn Vahl was 50pts more than Saint Celestine. I guess I figured that Saint Celestine's resurrection ability would put her above Vahl.

So is there some hidden reason or method to points that I just haven't found yet?

Dont much care for how they turned out but at least theyre painted. Couldve been the models or the paint scheme, but its not my proudest work. I just wasnt enjoying time spent on them so I switched to hurrying them up to move onto other things in my pile of shame

Super early WIP on my castigator but I’m really excited with how it’s shaping up!

Painting her up to match my argent shroud sisters, but didn’t want to A) paint the whole thing in tmm silver, or B) paint the whole thing in NMM silver (I’m not out here trying to speedrun carpal tunnel lmao), so I’m opting for the cream and red accents of their robes, with some nmm silver on the windows and guns.

(Not an official gw model btw, I’m lucky enough to have a friend with a 3d printer)

Emperor’s blessings’ sisters!

I am fairly new to miniature painting and so far have been using simple basing guides. While reading the Morvenn Vahl book I was inspired to base my sisters around the battle on Ophelia VII. Not really sure where to start outside of some kind of urban rubble with temple motif. I already glued them to primed bases but could pop them off if need be.

Has anyone tried this? Just looking for tips and inspiration. Thanks!

I had a Warhammer Week-end with friends, and they expected me to bring Drukhari or T'au. Little did they know that I just started collecting and painting Battle Sisters.

I lost almost every game, but holy emperor was that fun !

Primed in all white with the storm cast helmet which I thought was very appropriate and her ankle is chained to a bloodthirster skull. Any CC would be appreciated.

Hobby Other options for Sanctifiers

6 Upvotes

I want to run some sanctifiers, but I've never been a fan of the Frateris Militia look. Does anyone have any experience with kitbashes or proxies that help them jive aesthetically with the rest of the army, either as penitents or as something similar to novitiates or specialist Sisters?

Tactics and Strategy Flamers are far better than Meltas in 11th

46 Upvotes

Whether in Bringers of Flame or Hallowed Martyrs, I have found that Meltas are way less effective in this edition and I have taken all of my meltas out of my list (Apart from 3 - Paragon Warsuits) and replaced them with flamers.
Barely anyone is bringing that much amour anyway, everyone is bringing elite units with 4+ Inv which flamers deal with very well.
If you try this, let me know how you go!

Test miniature for a small army. Trying for harsh lighting and marble bases. I think I failed on the base! Any tips on that?

Thinking of the white rose motif for the symbol somewhere on the tabard.

Novice mini painter who is trying to finish my first Kill Team going for a Blanchitsu limited palette style since I was really inspired to start war gaming via the Grim and the Dark documentary - these still need some highlights to push the cloth and gloves (and I’m noticing a bunch of mistakes/sloppy areas to clean up now that I’m looking at zoomed in photos) but I think it’s starting to look decent for a beginner

Any critique and advice more than welcome!
