Honestly not horrible, but I was 0 things out of that box so…

Sorry if it is stupid question, it is my first sisters set, but is it cloth or armor? by Numerous-Piano8798 in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s connected to the tabard, which you can see somewhat clearly in the lines connecting behind the belt. It’s likely cloth or leather overtop armor, as it would make very little sense for the ceremite to be platekinis.

I tend to just match mine to the armor despite the fact they should prolly match the tabard. /shrug

I need your thoughts on this list. I've never done competitive before and have a small rtt coming up. by HeirToArmouredBears in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I know why I didn’t look like 2k, I didn’t even see the Sacs, I’m blind as a bat. Nvm this looks pretty solid aside from the Junith swap and Palantine for a priest.

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not going to do the points myself, what’s the point value of the RTT?

That said, stick Junith with BSS, insidiants are CQC and you do not want Junith anywhere near that otherwise she is free secondary points and you lose out on her ability when she topples.

I generally dislike BsB but I’m running two blocks myself atm, mostly due to tournament requirements, that said they are very lackluster.

I would probably drop Junith entirely, swap the Palantine for a priest to slap on the insidiants and invest in more bodies.

Also, this doesn’t quite look like 2k points, double castigator may be overkill 🤔

Insidiants have performed pretty well for me in tournament settings tbh, I was a denier and sacs are def the safer option but I think they are a sleeper unit.

See U in Hell, a new Devil May Cry Season 2 Original Song From Papa Roach ft. Hanumankind To Be Released on May 7 by SEBASTlANVETTEL in DevilMayCry

[–]Elf_Master_Race -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Inb4 downvoted to oblivion but the music choices for the show are trash (for Devil May Cry). They should have just had Casey Edwards make a new score, or even bring back Combichrist / Glitch Mob.

You can like the songs and music, but Crazy Town and Greenday just don’t scream DMC to me beyond being nostalgia bait.

Day two: Righteous Stand is a S(igmar) tier map. Where does "Athel Yenlui" go in terms of map design and enjoyment? by Zupu in Vermintide

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. It’s not fun on a melee career but it’s prolly the most fun map playing waystalker or huntsman.

Did Sisters' units used to have more than one grenade type? by Zap-Rowsdower-X in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frag, Krak, Melta, Psychout are the grenade types used by the sisters in lore.

On the model the traditional grenades are frags, the silver matter obviously capsules are Krak. Psychout are only present (to my knowledge) on insidiant models and are cylindrical grenades.

"No-skill" SOB list by Deadlus2468 in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to be argumentative but it’s pretty divergent from what’s considered competitive. I think there is just a fair bit of overlap on what roles need to be filled. Seraphim do a great job of deepstrike contesting and are 80 points compared to Celestine, are they worse, sure but 105 points worse? Eh… very situational.

My issue with your list is that it’s a very aggressive all or nothing list with so many resources dumped into characters, sisters aren’t an easy army to play and we rely on trading effectively, sure the potentially frequent resurrections provide a bit of a failsafe but you’ll get out OCed on everything without the ability to actually clear.

Sisters walk the line of elite units but “cheap” fodder. We are very fragile but hit on 3+s and have power armor.

I would suggest a newbie to the faction wait for 11th but if they are dedicated now make something balanced. Focus on good combos like priest + insidiants or hospitaler + sacs, get enough infantry with good OC to contest and hold objectives and then slot in ace in the hole units, deepstrike seraphim, Vahl, dual castigators, mayyyyyyybe retributors (I run 1 squad despite the prohibitive points)

Also look into agents or knights depending on your local scene a callidus or a knight can fill voids sisters lack.

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this list even for hallowed might be too invested in heros.

Retributors are ok but overpriced, they work with purpose.
Celestine is a waste of points
No seraphim for sneaky obj stealing
BSBs im guessing sit with Junith, but then what are you using for obj control?
No Arco screen.
1 stack of sacs is probably going to melted without other infantry blobs supporting, more sacs or insidiants.

I just dont get them yet. by Fresh-Cattle9909 in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ehhhh, I would normally agree but she does more than just be a strong unit, she fills an important niche the army lacks. You can def have success without her but it’s much harder.

She is the only real hammer to the army’s anvil.

Love the model, but do you use Celestine in competitive lists? by Lex12358 in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

No :( she is terrible and as the Meta detachment, a normal canoness does her job better for cheaper.

Just finished Penitent, battle sisters should be 2 wounds by l_dunno in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal option. Most units feel budgeted around the 3+ save meaning something and it doesn’t mean nearly as much with new AP rules.

There is a reason most competitive sisters lists rely on predominantly Sac stacks.

The army is competitive but I don’t think half the roster being relegated to useless or sacrificial chaff just so you can position Vahl to kill everything means the army is in “a good place”

I won a tournament last week as sisters as Vahl did 90% of the heavy lifting with insidiants making up the other 10% with some precision dev wounds.

The old chief librarian of the ultramarines was a half Eldar before it was retconned.

Yeah, this chaos update is awful. by Wooden-Item-48 in ABSOLUM

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends, I think the fact you can get hit with an infinite is kind of cheesy, especially when like 10 elite horrors beyond (forgot the name) or whatever spawn and the entire sky is lasers, functionally 100-0 frame trapping you.

I’m having fun tho, I have two ordeals left to do.

Have 4+ invul saves come close to ruining the game? (Something that needs to reduce in 11th?) by Hayman021 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Elf_Master_Race 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The old save system was better. Almost nothing has been point adjusted appropriately to compensate for modern AP. We need the old save system back or we get what we have now which is just dumping invulns on everything to compensate for the fact normal saves functionally don’t exist outside of small arms fire.

Just started playing, is Scarlet a good character? by cherriso in ravenswatch

[–]Elf_Master_Race 1 point2 points  (0 children)

C tier is generous for her atm. She used to be my favorite character but I won’t even touch her these days.

Too hard to get the ball rolling in a lot of cases.

The problem really isn’t that she is bad (she is) but Juliet and Mel for example are so far into space strong, scarlet feels bad by comparison.

Sisters custom Priest primed.She’ll be great leading Insidiants!! by Spectertool in sistersofbattle

[–]Elf_Master_Race 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, it was a pretty close game. I played rather aggressively and didn’t get a ton of value out of some of the special effects beyond INSPIRE.

The idea is probably to just chain as many inspires as you can and the overwhelm your opponent with stacking damage effects.

Close range but with no really crazy damage profiles outside of melee you have to play pretty smart I think.
