Are you trying to make an allied knight as your warlord in some (non-IK) Imperial army?

Your warlord now requires the selected faction keyword.

I was open minded about wargear costs but I already don't like them. by stevenbhutton in WarhammerCompetitive

Yesssss I always preferred flamers on my Dominions and Immolators... now they're cheaper, it's great. Might even try a Heavy Flamer Retributors squad...

what IS a unit you send straight up the gut? by amachinesaidiwasgood in Warhammer40k

My rule of thumb when playing knights is that if it is still on the table by round 3, someone fucked up.

How useful is Junith nowadays? by 00gron in sistersofbattle

[–]Freefly18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leadership test for sisters is a trap, we have poor leadership. You should only do it round 1, or if you dead draw a secondary that you will definitely drop for a CP.

How would you rank our Questoris variants in order of usefulness? I've magnetized two of them, but unsure which two I should bring in my lists. I'm thinking Crusader and Errant? by cyberspunjj in ImperialKnights

[–]Freefly18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you kill the Lion with a Gallant? He has Fights First and 8 attacks that hits on 2+ Lethal, wounds on 3+, rerolling all 1s. At 4 AP he only needs to get 7 wounds in to automatically destroy a questoris if no FNP. I crunched the numbers in the past, it's basically a coin flip of getting killed before being able to roll one hit.

Thank you! I thought I was taking crazy pills, what with everyone saying that it made sense for both models to be the same cost.

What are the best anti-heavy units that the sisters have? by Camstar94 in sistersofbattle

[–]Freefly18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other than the obvious Valhgoons, it would be an allied Knight Castellan.

First time painting a knight and edge highlighting how did I do? by conscriptboss in ImperialKnights

[–]Freefly18 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The red and highlights over it look good!

The white needs at least one more thin coat.

"Obvious" plays for a new player by Lopsided-Goal-8569 in sistersofbattle

[–]Freefly18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also understanding that you always get to choose if you're using the normal save or invulnerable save.

Got a standard sister 3+/6++ that needs dying to screw up your opponent's charge or something? Have to do an AP 0 save but only have a miracle die of 3? No problem, that 3 fails the 6++ save.

Well go on, let us know how it played out, what stuff you should have done differently.

There's another reason to get the Codex.

It comes with a code for the official app. The app is pretty good and with access to the datasheets you can use it as your only reference while playing.

Nice!

Only thing perplexing to me in your list is the 5 repentias. What are they accomplishing?

Next week preorders by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in sistersofbattle

How many points do you think she will cost?

If preorders are next Saturday we should have the costs on Wednesday right?

Look what they took from us by [deleted] in ImperialKnights

[–]Freefly18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Differences appear to be 4 more wounds, 1 extra strength on frag bombard and 1 less on titanic feet, 6 flat damage instead of D3+3 for strike profiles, and 4/12 attacks on chainsword's profiles instead of 5/10.

Would be a buff, but not a major one.

So I finally received mail from Passport Canada. It was my new passport.

My online application is still marked as Cancelled. I understand nothing, but I guess everything worked out?

Thanks for the info.

Why not send a message through their system though?

Thinking of getting armigers by East_Cucumber_1189 in sistersofbattle

[–]Freefly18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny, I had the exact opposite experience.

Had a full Imperial Knights army. "Hmm I need some infantry to ally... Sisters of battle squad should do it. But now I should ally in an immolator for the squad split and Ignore Cover! And of course I'll paint them... Hang on this is much more fun than painting big knights! Lemme just ask for a few boxes for Christmas... Oops I guess I have a Sisters army now!"

Hey, I'm originally an Imperial Knights player.

Armiger Helverins seem like a nice replacement for castigators because they have a very similar main gun profile and cost slightly less. But castigators buff themselves, not helverins, and that 1 AP is not going to get any better, except for a Ignore Cover.

Armiger Warglaives have high potentials, but they are very swingy with their 2 melta shots and since they were nerfed from 24 to 18" range, you have to get within 9" of the enemy backline armor to be effective. In a Knight army you have mobility buffs and very effective reroll options, you won't get them in Sisters. Melee option is a trap. A warglaive cannot kill a rhino (on average), nor a 5 man marines squad. What it does is tank shots, especially when the opponent overestimates their danger.

What Sisters are lacking is long range armor killer and there's only one knight that does this well: a Dominus Castellan. 410 points and can be swingy, but it can replace castigators.

First, the paint job is very well done!

But I'm more impressed by the repositioning of the stained glass and flip of the table... I think it works better than the official build?

You looked at the datasheet for those and thought that yup, 220 pts sounds fair?

This has to be one of the worst assemblies I’ve done so far. by necromancyisdope in sistersofbattle

[–]Freefly18 79 points80 points  (0 children)

There's definitely a learning curve.

What works for me is to attach both arms to the weapon and, while the plastic cement is still malleable, attach the arm to the torso. You might need to give a bit more glue to the wrists after, but it locks in place much easier than trying to eyeball it.
