Which Adepta Sororitas Order to Choose to Collect in Warhammer 40K? Best Sisters of Battle to Pick?

[@McWerp]

Paint your own colours and swap between rules as you wish. There are so many cool ways to build sisters in this book locking yourself into just one feels like a mistake.

[@Nianfur]

It's a shame gw expect players to play as painted.

[@18120polls]

@@Nianfur Neat little loophole in the Sisters Minoris category for this though. There is a Minoris order that lets you simply copy one of the 6 Major orders. So paint a custome scheme and run them "technically" as "In The Footsteps of Saints." and that solves everything.

[@fallofcamelot]

They way I read it you don’t get the relic if you use an order minoris and copy one of the main orders. I’m not sure you get the strategem or the warlord trait either? Can anyone clarify this?

I think you underestimate argent shroud they also let storm bolters more easily get in rapid fire range for blessed bolts and not only ignoring the -1 for moving with a heavy weapon (and getting to advance as well) it actually allows you to reach targets with multi meltas as only 24" now. My experience is bloody rose is hard hit by the removal of the advance and charge strategem as well as war hymn not really working when things are in a rhino beforehand

Still works as long as you spend 1cp for the strat to auto-sing

My sisters are Order of the Wounded Heart. Daughter order of the Valorous Heart but with a similar color scheme to the Blood Rose (slightly darker red armor). That way I can switch between the two as the list may require and still remain lore accurate.

[@Thornsworks]

I personally think Argent Shroud stands out to me as Strong aswell. I played Valorous Hearts shooty lists with 8th sisters so was looking for a good crossover into 9th. Honestly, Argent Shroud feels like it aids alot of the nerfs that sisters received in regards to retributors etc. Reroll a hit per unit (as an ork player that includes a rokket boy in every 10 man deathskulls shooty blob) can be really fun and strong, thinking a melta in each basic sisters squad, advancing and plinking key targets at 24" without any -modifiers. On top of that, in lore friendly fashion, you can make a first turn move for free + advance with squads of Dominions 1x Combi Melta Supper and 4x Standard dominions equipped with artificer crafted storm bolters (Rapid Fire 2 S4 AP0 Damage2). Each squad equipped like this costs only 90 points. In rapid fire range thats 16 damage 2 shots + a Combi Melta shot for 90 points.

[@euanmacleod3738]

The +1 to hit in melee in concert with the reroll to hit or wound seems great to me from the minoris rules. Making the sisters much less likely to whiff when they get the chance to unload their mega damage for their points just seems to play exactly to their style. It's virtually as good as bloody rose for melee lists, but it comes with also providing a powerful buff to the army's shooting phase as well. Given that so many lists are advancing into melee and melta range, I think those minoris rules together seem more valuable than the order rules. Maybe I'm too taken with the idea of a minoris faction.

One thing that I don't see covered anywhere is one of the convictions in the custom conviction sheet, I forgot the name of, but it went like this: if you pick it you cannot have any other conviction from custom order, and then you pick the major order, and get all the stuff from that order. And I am not sure if I understand the point of that conviction. Is it just there so you can have whatevere the heck colour scheme you like, whatever cool order name you invent and have rules of order majoris attached to it? EDIT: scrolled down the comments and found it - "in the footsteps of saints" and it allows you to copy everything except relic from the order majoris of your choice

Debating starting a sisters army, seems youd be better off using either the shroud order, /custom one with melta buff and reroll one hit/wound, for all your shooty units, then bloody rose for all your melee units. There doesnt seem to be any downside to running multiple orders. Bar the fee for the second detachment, but 2 cp for a patrol, to shove all the melee (or shooty if you make your battalion/brigade melee focused) doesnt seem like a bad idea, especially as it opens more troops slots. Could have the troops slots in the melee detachment filled by basic sisters squads, with a power sword+combi weapon, very cheap unit, and can take 1 heavy/special weapon too.

[@РенатТкаченко-ф8п]

I want to discuss a few things First: Warlord trait for Order of Our Martyred Lady actually says that you get auto 6MD for Sacrifice all the time, not just when character with this WT dies, here is the quote from wahapedia: WARLORD TRAIT: SHIELD BEARER This leader believes in facing every threat at the head of her Order, leading from the front. Each time an attack is allocated to this WARLORD, subtract 1 from the Damage characteristic of that attack (to a minimum of 1). Each time you gain a Miracle dice at the end of a phase as a result of Vengeance, if this WARLORD destroyed any enemy units during that phase, that Miracle dice is automatically a 6. Each time you gain a Miracle dice at the end of a phase as a result of Sacrifice, or if this WARLORD was destroyed during that phase, that Miracle dice is automatically a 6. Second: does MDs recieved from Martyred stratagem count as Sacrifice MDs? If yes, that a Warlord with Shield Bearer WT can generate 2+D3 auto 6 MDs Also I don't know if that was covered in previous videos on new SoB codex, but since the Chaplet of Sacrifice instructs you to keep the model on the table until the end of the phase, it must mean that all of it's rules still apply? Like auras, blessings and prayers/

As someone who knows absolutely nothing about sisters aside from Celestine being a great guard ally... I'm very surprised a lot of their orders sit mostly in the medium and medium-strong tiers.

Especially since I haven't really seen other orders aside from the Martyred lady, basically the box art order of Sisters.

[@LordDeathNote]

His tier list is awful and really shows he doesn't know much at all about sisters competitively. Argent shroud is the top tier order atm , ec is not even close to top tier. Oml he overrated as well, and sacred rose isn't great but is as good or better than those right now for sure.

Yeah, the bump on to hit for oml with wounded squads can really help, or sacrifice a cheap character to a difficult foe and your whole army gets +1 wound against it.

I thought this at first, but read most closely. That page shows that units getting out of transports can't Remain Stationary even if they don't otherwise move at all. However, the new Remaining Stationary FAQ doesn't make any mention of disembarking, but instead confirms that units with a Remaining Stationary rule in Shooting Phase can shoot as though they had Remained Stationary. The FAQ explicitly prevents Reinforcement units from benefitting, but since it didn't do the same for disembarking units...it seems Argent Shroud is all good.

this is only ever going to be a thing at a Warhammer world event or an official GW store event, .. maybe a couple of tournements, seeing as GW arent allowing gaming back in store and its questionable if they will even bother from what i am told from some store employees .. if you are just playing games, paint them whatever and use what ever legion rules you like ...
