I have two, but their chassises (sp?) are being used as Rhinos. If i manage to proxy up or get a hold of some Rhinos, I could slim down the HQ or drop the Assassins. Both have been very effective.
What would you recommend?

You're relatively light on the anti-tank side of things, also the Canoness is pretty heavily equipped for 1k.
I am not really a fan of power weapons on VSS and if I give them a cc weapon I usually take the Eviscerator, though this really can depend on what you usually face and your playing style.
If anyhow possible get some more AT in there, preferably an Exorcist

Well, first I think your Canoness is kind of overloaded (and possibly illegal, there's a 100pt wargear limit). The Brazier of Holy Fire isn't all that special.

You have too many flamers and not enough Melta (and no special weapons on your sisters for some reason).

The Inquisitor and Assassin are a bit pointless. He's only there so you can take the Assassin, which isn't really anything special.

Everyone gets an Immolator.

EVERYONE GETS AN IMMOLATOR.

That's the rule, and you stick to it. Your HS slots? Immolators, fuck Exorcists. S8 AP1, oh noes, wherever will I get that except EVERY SINGLE SQUAD IN MY ARMY? This also means that you want to focus on units that can take Immolators as transports.

Book of St Lucius is amazing, take it.

Most of the gear and such you have is pretty trashy. Power Weapons aren't that impressive when you're S3 and have access to Litanies; put special weapons in every squad you can- generally you'll want Meltaguns, as your Immolators are best with Heavy Flamers. (They can't move 12" and fire the Multimelta, you see.)

SoB Rhinos are overpriced, otherwise they might be worth it for Stormtroopers. Oh, yeah, Stormtroopers are an amazing way to add some bodies + Meltaguns to your army for cheap.

Don't overlook the ability to bring in Imperial Guard. A Platoon with some long-range shooting (Autocannons and/or Lascannons) can really give you some strong options.

Callidius is the only good Assassin, I would otherwise avoid them. She's not really "worth it" in your army, but you could probably slot her in if you really wanted to.

Generally i agree with this guy, two things though;
Exorcists are worth it unless you are facing a AV14 wall or a horde army.
Your troop sisters can't take Immolators so it isn't really possible to give EVERYONE (sry jsut wanted to show that I can use caps too) an Immolator, so Rhinos are still pretty much required there (there are those that like foot slogging troops sisters, I certainly don't)

Might slim down the HQ to get an exorsist in there.
And BoSL is fantastic, but i've found that having it on 2/3 squads is usually more than enough, Since everyones weapon is short ranged, unless they're heading off to squat at an objective, they can all pretty easily stay within those 6 inch bubbles.

>>14752858
Their special weapons is right there in paranthesises.
The Canoness right now has Bionics just to dump points somewhere, had 10 points over, maybe that takes her over the limit, can drop that.
I will speak out for the brazier though. Since she's going to be in a squad of 10 in total, she'll almost always pass that Faith test to make it rending. As will the three others in the squad. And you rarely ever get more than one shot with flamers anyway. Since everyone would rather be in Melee.
And 4 rending flamers coupled with 6 rending bolters usually wipes 10 man marine squads.
The flamers have been stupendously successfull.

While it sting a bit to bring a useless killpoint (The Inquisitor) to the table, the Eversor is a fucking murdermachine. And monsterous anti-tank. What with 1turn charge melta bombs.

They take away slots from your Immolators, that's why you don't use them. Are they good tanks? Sure. Not as good as getting your cheap-ass flamers and meltaguns in range, though.

>Your troop sisters can't take Immolators so it isn't really possible to give EVERYONE (sry jsut wanted to show that I can use caps too) an Immolator,
That's what your HS slots are for. If you're taking more than 3x10 troops, you're probably overloading things. (Not counting inducted Guard, of course.)

Still especially in smaller games I dsilike using ISTs as my main troops choice simply because I want as many faith points as possible. Which pretty much boils down to buying rhinos again.

Not only do they really need to be 10 strong (lol faith) but they're 10-20. So any other option is out really.
Unless you're skipping them completely and putting 5men Inquisitorial Stormtroopersquads into all the Immolators.
Anyway, Immolatorspam really doesn't work at 1000 points. They can take much of a beating and you can't afford enough of them to not care.

Mmm. Faith points are nice, but they can be very awkward to use sometimes; I would never rely on them.

In a 1K (or less) army I might end up using Rhinos, but I wouldn't be at all happy about it- the Immolator is just too much better of a buy for those few points more.

ISTs are awesome because they're so absurdly cheap. Sure, their price is crap compared to Sisters (3+ save, better gun, and about a million other things for a point or two per model? Hells yes!), but the smaller minimum squad size is a big deal.

Then again, I play the army as all-in aggression, so scoring isn't as much of an issue...

Crassus is 225 points, 14/13/12 has 4 heavy flamers / bolters, carries 30. Immoltator is 180 points, 11/10/9 and has 2 heavy flamers / bolters and carries 6... I'm not seeing the downside to the Crassus.

Looking at it, the Crassus would probably look good in black + red trim.

So you haven't seen the glory of Rending-Flaming a tightly packed bunch of marines (Having just disembarked, just been disengaged from close combat by Seraphim or Callidus or just had their in-fucking-evitable rhino popped.) I take it?
Faced 1000 points of smurfs. Turn 1, I wiped 2 squads of the table. One squad rolled up, disembarked and shot at my Deathcult assassins, (took the bait to say the least) the other pushed forward through ruins (without a transport) a corner made them bunch up.

Two out of three scoring units gone, the third one was in reserves and was killed off by the eversor.

Oh, I'm aware it's nice, but it sucks when you roll bad and nothing happens and oh god they charged you and your girls have shitty combat stats and they're killing you why did this happen.

Having tons of redundant, smaller units that can change targets as the situation allows is often better. At 1K it's not hard to field 6+ Immolators (would have to run the points, but..), and that is a LOT of burning going on.

Yes, well, I'm not principally against just slamming ISTs in Immolators, I just don't have the models for it (not the immolators Or the ISTs) and I think that the faithpowers are goddamned fantastic. My sisters punched a Predator to death and my Canoness destroyed a whole unit of Khorne Berzerkers alone, AND they got the charge. All because of fucking faith.

Still my canoness might get exchanged for a 95 point Evicerator + Jumppack anti-tank missile.

As can making use of Immolator spam and the allies rule.
They are both potent philosophies and pretty much the only ways to play WH nowadays but I wouldn't say one is better than the other. It depends on a combination of personal plastyle and usual enemies.

Ah wisdom.

I have to preach one thing though. The Everosor Assassin.
Holy shit what a monster. The Callidus is good, as in Really good, but the Eversor is a god damned monster.
Most people play him wrong though, misunderstanding the rules.
He has 4+1d6 attacks on his 12 inch charge. Setting him up 18 inches away and charging on turn 1 isn't a problem. He has melta bombs. On turn 1 nothing has moved. That's an automatic hit.
Further, his neurogauntlet is NOT a poisoned weapon. It does NOT wound on 4+.
Read those rules five more times carefully. It rolls TO HIT and every roll of 4 or more results in a WOUND with no armorsave allowed.
That means on average he'll do 7.5 attacks and kill 3.75 marines. They won't stastically kill him back, and they might just break and run, which means the eversor, with his superior initiative will hunt them down and kill them all.
Such a versitile little bastard.

If you can't fit her in a transport with Celestians or Dominions or some such, Jumppacks is a given.
The reason she's so geared up is because she's with the celestians, they get out of the rhino and burn something to hell. Then everything everywhere charges them and they have to do alot of the work in close combat.
Optimally I'd want something else to jump in and save them. But there is really nothing to do that in the sisters army unless i bring a Priest and that freakshow. And the priests are a whole nother slew of trouble.

And you can set up within 12 inches if noone can draw line of sight, which isn't always that much of a pickle, what with it being one small model, and you can of course place him in reserves and have him outflank.

It's an initiative check isn't it? If they fail their morale check. Or did i miss something?

Yeah, it says roll to hit, then roll d6 for each hit.

Meaning you hit normally, it's just a fancy wording for a mechanic similar to new agoniser. You really have to be illiterate to think you won't roll to hit and wound and instead attacks autohit and autowound on a single roll of 4+.

Eversor works like this:
Roll to hit normally (HINT!)
Don't roll to wound
instead for each hit (HINT) roll d6 and enemy takes a wound on 4+.

Basically it is like poisoned on 4+, except you won't get a re-roll if target's T is equal or lower than your S.

Everyone always forgets this, even marine players. I always have to remind them that I can't cut them down.

Problem I see here is you have three Exorcists and six AV11 tanks at 2K points.

Guard or Razorspam fields nearly twice that and is beatable. Your girls are gonna get knocked from their rides and then have to slog across the field, which is bad times.

Nah, that's never been a problem. I've stomped lists like those and various other spam lists. I haven't lost a game in quite some time.

I blame the players though. Solid lists, just not very good commanders.

Well, they can be, but they only take a few punches to the face.

>marine squad gets charged by eversor
>kills a couple
>powerfist squashes him
it's the same with the callidus.

assassins really aren't worth it for their cost. A 4+ save and two wounds only goes so far

Keep the Eversor near a Sister squad. Once they hop out and Divine Guidance Flame a squad, you finish off the remainder with the Eversor. It makes sure no one is left alive to hit him back and you can repeat. He's great at defending your Sisters from being assaulted.

for the 120-150 points you're spending on him (after taking the inquisitor); I'd rather just have another squad of sisters

Fair enough. But I do enjoy having a cheap Inquisitor with a cheap IST squad to hold an objective in back. That way I can zoom forward with all my Sisters and not have to worry about leaving a full Sister squad to hold my objective, wasting their strength. The Eversor also works as a nice bodyguard for a base in case something slips by trying to contest the objective with the ISTs on nit.
