Haven't played 40K in at least 4 or 5 years, and I had been playing Blood Angels since Second Edition. This is my first attempt in a long time at an army, so any advice is appreciated. Trying to find something both economical and yet playable. If you have any questions about my choices, ask. Also, for the record, my Sister Superiors are all included in the initial cost of the squad (5 seraphim instead of 4 + Sister Superior for example). Veteran upgrades are listed seperately.

1500 pts army

Meant to be hanging out with my Seraphim, but has the capability of getting where she's needed.

Elites
6 Sisters Repentia
Mistress

I just like the idea. *shrug*

6 Celestians
Heavy Flamer
Melta Gun
Imagifier upgrade
Veteran Sister upgrade
Eviscerator for Veteran Sister
Bolt Pistol (Yes I know I can't use it and the Eviscerator in CC. Still handy to have, though)
----------------------------------------

Somewhat versatile. Had given them an Immolator, but decided to make it a Heavy Support choice instead.

I have a conversion idea in-mind for this squad. Could probably stand to be bigger, though.

Heavy Support
Immolator
Twin Linked Multi Melta
Smoke Launchers
-----------------------------------
085 pts

Allows me to transport any of my Sisters or IG squads should they fall enough to permit tranportation since it's not dedicated. Also keeps my % of Elites points down by not making it the Celestian's transport.

Total cost: 1499, 6 faith points.

In this army, I've thought about attaching specificly to my Celestians. Increases my % of Elites but lowers my % in Heavy Support by doing so. Also allows me to play this army as-is in most scenarios since there are some that only allow 2 Heavy Support and/or 2 Elites.

6 Retributors
2 Heavy Bolters
2 Multi Meltas
Imagifier upgrade
Veteran Sister upgrade
----------------------------------
180 pts


Exorcist
Extra armor
--------------------
140 pts

Total cost: 1999, 7 faith points.

The only scenarios I can't field any of these armies in are:
Raids (Defender)
Breakthrough (Defender) because I have too many Fast Attack and/or Elites in all three armies.

Economicly:

$025 - Bitz for conversions

$080 - 2 Full sisters squads (will convert meltagun and Imagifiers)
$024 - 9 extra sisters (Celestians, Retributors)
$040 - Immolator (may see if I can find an old one somewhere for cheaper)
$040 - Whirlwind (Don't like Exorcist model. May try to locate old Whirlwind for cheaper)
$007 - Bitz ordered Melta gun
$050 - 5 heavy weapons models
$040 - Seraphim
$010 - One Sister Superior
---------------------------------------
$531 - before any potential discounts I can find and before shipping and taxes.

Firstly: "This especially concerns; asking for / posting / or offering scans of information printed in any Games Workshop publications. This includes White Dwarf, Army Codex, Rule Books or similar" Points cost for individual upgrades are NOT to be be posted here as it's a violation of the LO Rules and international copyright laws. I will gladly comment on the list, but only after you remove the points for each of the upgrades.
