Sister of Battle blog: The Order of the Sacred Lys

[Astraeos]

Cool ideas for objective markers, now let's see those conversions!

[Nehemiah]

Always nice to see another Sister's player sticking with it despite the White Dwarfing.

[Rhaivaen]

I like how the planet´s atmosphere looks

I like this "Banner"

[Veteran Sergeant]

Glad you brought this thread back. Hadn't seen it before.

I won't lie, the Sisters are one of my least favorite factions, but you've done a great job with yours.

[Gonfrask]

I´m glad you like that model, perhaps it is my best Simulacrum. For the last squad I have used a veteran as Imagifer, and a standar sister like Veteran. Much to do, but the comissions are taking all my hobby time

[Astraeos]

Nice to see this log up and running again! Could we have another shot of that new imagifer? The top of the simulacrum seems to have got chopped off in the photo!

[Gonfrask]

Thanks Astraeos, of course here you have more pics, you can see the close combat weapon of the veteran and the simulacrum itself, it is the book of the Mortis Engine, it looks really nice for this army.

[Jericho]

A very old model (4 years old) that I´m going to reuse for an objetive marker. I´m very proud of the text, I copy the style almost perfectly. So...a not real update jajajaja

Now that looks like a chap who's ready to go out and spread the good word!! Nice

[Astraeos]

That book makes for a great simulacrum, nice one!

[Gonfrask]

Last week a new tournament and I finished it 4th (my last game in table 1, for the first place but...), this is my new 1750 army list:



Of course I have to finish a lot of models.

That "white box" is my grav-rhino project, inspired in the artwork from the Horus Heresy guide. The Repentias need bases, but I have them almost done.

[harlekin]

That looks so tasty. Your army is for me the best example for an all-metal-army miss ing no variety, thank to your great efforts of course.
How many people participated in the tournament? I mean, okay 4th place isn't bad (congrats at this point), espescially with our current codex lacking surprise.

I really hope th SoB get a proper treatment somewher in the future, I've a squad myself and a converted faithpinata adn would like to use them, how they were used to be...

To end the babble: Nice to see this log reanimated.

[Astraeos]

How are you find the SoB these days? I haven't used mine yet but I've heard mainly negative things about them.

[Gonfrask]

We were 14 in the tournament, of course not a big tournament, but believe me that all the players had done their homeworkd with their armies (ahh...the spanish gamer philosophy...).

In game the SoB have a notabily lack of firepower in this edition (that´s why I use now 3 Exorcist), you can have a really big problem against flyers so the Allies are a really intestering option to the army (but nowadays I have seen tournaments where this option is banned) I don´t use because...I have no models, but 2 o 3 Hydra...
They are very dificult to use, but you can make true miracles (ahhhh, joke!)

And never let Saint Celestine in home! Is a true beast!

[Astraeos]

A lack of firepower, and they're not a close combat army either. Sounds like it'll be a bit of a struggle to use them effectively.

[Gonfrask]

Well, a third Exorcist is a good oportunity for a new conversion, this time I want to do something like a "veteran gunner" or a "leader of Exorcist Squadron"



Also, I´m working in the new Repentias´ bases

[Astraeos]

I like the converted Exorcist gunner! Nice idea!

[Lothlanathorian]

Never thought I'd subscribe to a SoB plog, but, this is some fantastic stuff.

[Nehemiah]

Nice conversion on the Gunner there.

[Gonfrask]

Glad you like it mates.

This time I upload a very special Sister of Battle, perhaps you remember that a long time ago I show you this model, Alisandra Careal, de Dark Empress:



Well, the background behind this Dark Canoness is not mine, but of my girlfriend and her friend. They both made a fan-codex about heretic SoB and I really like it (so I made Alisandra model), but my girlfriend also did another special character, Mirelle the Slaugther, a true psychopath worthy bride of Kharn XD, so for her present in the Wise Men Day (January 6th) was a model of this character, done over Valkya (a very useful miniature).






I don´t know what to think about the skull-helmet, front seems comic, but when you look at it from any side it looks nice...well, maybe next time I made it better

[Astraeos]

Isn't there a skull helmet you could've used or were they a bit too big? The model's looking okay so far, the backpack is well done.
