Sisters are slightly better than guard veterans, but that’s all you get, you don’t get the option to drop them down a notch for quantity over quality, and you don’t get the cool toys like the master of ordinance or vendettas etc, essentially if you’re used to playing an elite small guard army sisters are slightly more versatile in that style of play due to having bolters to glance vehicles to death, and getting more access to heavy weapons, but they can’t swamp an objective with 50 grunts and a couple of commissars, or lob demo packs left right and… Read more »

This is why every day I get less excited by anything GW. Seeing how they treat armies, change rules without worrying about how it will affect certain armies (thus screwing once-devoted players) are just a few of the reasons I am starting to look elsewhere. Sure, fluff models are pretty cool from GW, but rules in my opinion suck, as does the “screwage” they give out when changing armies, rules, etc. Seems every company these days releases a nearly equal army release throughout the year, where as GW gives one army a boost while neglecting the others until their scheduled… Read more »

Also…9 Battle Engines??! Nevermind the rules and the points….buying 9 of those from GW will cost you $315!! For a useless model!

For that price you can get FULL armies in so many games. Like I said, I won’t put any more money into 40k. Crappy game. Fantasy has some redeeming factors…for now I’ll keep playing that, but for my sci-fi fix I’ll get into something else.

The cannoness got the shaft as well as C:WH allowed them to take a jump pack to lead seraphim squads. This is why virtually all sisters armies take St Celestine and Uriah Jacobus as they are about the only HQ’s worth taking at the moment. Also Andy and Darrell have missed the fact that repentia squads have FNP and a shield if faith save. They are one of the few squads that have benefitted from the re-write as before they couldn’t embark on transports and I think they had to move towards the closest enemy unit as well. However the… Read more »

shame full excuse for a codex. Reeks of sloppy half done job.
As you gentlemen mention all the time its overpriced, and the weakness outweigh the strengths anytime-
why cant celestiens take power weapons when their faith power is hit harder? ex. ex.
GW needs to release a proper codex, that’s much more competitive or eventually Sob bites the dust and no one plays them. (considering selling my 2500 pts of them)

i’m an ex sisters player, and for their advantages (and there are more than were mentioned in this vid) i’m still an ex sisters player, and that was back in 5th, so……..yeah

meant to say back before 5th…sorry

i remember playing that computer game as well shadow of the horned rat that started my love of the Skaven army 🙂

Well since they both lost to Sisters, I sense a little bit of sour grapes! I played with Penitent engines with 5th edition rules and they were pretty good, but not so much with the new rules. I think vehicles are less survivable now, especially this one. Ignore shaken and stunned doesn’t really help that much, since you would still lose a hull point, so someone can kill it very quickly. With 5th ED rules, I took two engines and wiped out Blood Angels close combat troops, and I had wounds to spare since I hit so much! You would… Read more »

Seraphim entry Angelic Viasage rule states seraphim get to rer-roll failed acts of faith and invun saves granted from shield of faith aka their 6+ invun. I do not cheat Darryl and i would like an apology for your comment that i may have been cheating.

Hi just watched the vid you accuse and other gamer of cheating, when it clearly states under the angelic visage rules for seraphim’s they get to re-roll acts of faith and invy saves grant by the shield of faith special rule.Now I know the person your talking about, you know him and everyone at the gaming club we attend knows him. I believe an apology is in order and seeing you did as a member of staff for beasts of war on a public form, that’s where the apology should take place.
