Sisters 2000 first try

blessed weapon is 2 handed so boltpistol is a waste get her a shotgun they are the same points and it allows her two fire twice and charge.

i'm not a big fan of the whole book of st lucious thing as if your playing the sisters right you shouldn't need them switch them for litanies as they are way better.

your troops..... i don't like them much drop the rhinos as you have bolters and power armour you want em to come to you, i like the heavy flamer +storm bolter combo as it maximes the amount of shots you can do before charging if it comes down to such a barbaric act. i don't like imagifers as well an extra 20 points is too much for what they do.
by the descrip the top 2 are 15 and the bottom 2 are 9 which is good however i would put 10 in the bottom 2.

your fast attack is good although i'm partial 2 units of 7 seraphim 8 works quite well

heavy is good although i would lose the imagifier again and maybe increase the unit to 8.

if you decided to drop all the imagifiers and make the changes i sugested then you should have enough points for either an immolater or lots more sisters, either way is good.
happy gaming :yes:

Regarding Stormbolters, they work best in a Dominion squad of 4 of them plus another one on the VSS, in a 10 strong squad. This unit has the ability to manouevre but still lay down a lot of fire at a fair range. You get enough shots that using DG can actually be worth it.

The Battle Sisters tend to do well in a 10 strong squad in a Rhino with flamer and heavy flamer. This squad moves quickly and can hit very hard. Two meltaguns to threaten vehicles is also good, although I often field meltaguns in squads of 6 Celestians, maybe mounted in an Immo.

If you're taking Retribs in a mech list then they have to go in an Immo and so are limited to being 6 strong. In this case it is often a good idea to just take two or three HB's in the squad to give you more bolter sisters to take casualties. The Immo should move off to fight separately, making use of its mobility.

Imagifers are very much to taste. They do cost, but they also bring substantial benefits, especially in a 10-strong squad. Such a squad is soon reduced to 6-8 models, and that is something of a sour spot for faith, where it is difficult to get off any act. You do need to use a lot of faith on your battle squads to justify their inclusion, if you burn it all on your canonesses and seraphim (very common this) they may not be warranted.

BP and CCW on VSS's is worthless for a WS3, S3 model. Just give her a bolter, or spend the points to get her a power weapon or an eviscerator so she can actually do some damage. This is another area where there is no 'best option'. I often give my VSS's power weapons simply because I like the models. Combi-flamers for an extra template on that crucial attack is also a good buy.

The big disadvantage to a mixed mech/foot list is that your sisters will spread themselves out over the tabletop. Sisters can win a battle with one turn of Divine Guidanced shooting, so ideally you want them all to hit the enemy lines at once. I've seen foot squads be left so far behind by their mech sistren that they end up out of the battle. Mech is an attacking army, you drive up to the enemy and smash them. Footslogger is defensive, you hunker down and shoot them as they approach, then lunge forward and smash them. Splitting your strategy can lead to being destroyed piecemeal. Also having just a few vehicles allows your opponents AT firepower to knock them all out. If you have none he's reduced to shooting sisters with lascannons, which is very inefficient. In a mech list there are enough targets that he shouldn't be able to destroy them all before you're on him.
