Sisters of Battle Roundup
Adepta Sorotas shipped from GW Digital and it looks like it’s a real effort to introduce a revamped army into the game.
Shield of faith gives 6++ and adamantium will now.
No more faith points, acts are one use only and passed on a leadership test.
Priests get war hymns that give some pretty good buffs on a leadership test.
Rhinos up 5 points
Immolators down 5 and multi-melta upgrade is now free
Exorcist down 10 (holy :cuss)
Celestine up to 135 and weapon now gives S+2 AP3, also she gets back up with full rules.
Jacobus up to 100 and banner is worse.
Celestines down to 14 and get furious charge AoF
Command squads get unliimted specials and no longer have to take hospitaler and dialogus, dialogus can take relics.
Repentia down to 14 and get fnp 3+ as AoF
Battle sisters as seen on black library site but AoF now gives preferred enemy
Seraphim special weapons halved in price, AoF gives shred
Dominions get 4 specials in 5 woman squads
Dominions’ new act of faith apparently lets them ignore cover instead of twin-linked. Don’t know what Hymns are yet.
Warlord Traits:
1 – Executioner: Warlord gains Fear.
2 – Indomitable: Warlord and unit with Shield of Faith have 5+ invulnerable save.
3 – Pure: Warlord and unit reroll failed Deny the Witch
4 – Rage: Warlord gains Rage.
5 – Beacon: All units within 12″ of Warlord use her leadership on Acts or Hymn tests.
6 – Orator: Friendlies within 12″ gain Stubborn.
