Adepta Sororitas... New Sisters of Battle Dominion Squad

This week I decided to put in some work on one of my armies that I played with recently but haven’t actually added any troops to for about five years... namely my Sisters of Battle of the fanatical Adepta Sororitas.

Having used the new Beta Codex that appeared in Chapter Approved last month I identified that this Force now has access to a couple of strategems and acts of faith that potentially make Storm Bolters into pretty solid death dealers.




With this in mind I decided to build myself a six strong Dominion Squad consisting of four Special Weapons Troopers all equipped with Storm Bolters and commanded by a Sister Superior also toting a Storm Bolter! 

I’ll be packing this girls into an Immolator and driving them across the battlefield so that they can disembark and unleash a storm of mass-reactive death directly into the face of the enemy. 

I have to admit that I forgot how much I enjoyed painting Battle Sisters... these were a pleasure and there is something really pleasing about these venerable sculpts.

As I now seem to have joint Necron and Sororitas projects running simultaneously I might see if I can build up sufficient forces to refight the ‘Battle at Sanctuary 101’... the conflict that featured in White Dwarf back in 1997 and where the Imperium first encountered the emergence of the Necron threat. This should be a fun project!
