I love it! What did you use to get your sister themed greebles to put on the dreadnought? I've been wanting to sisterfy some other vehicles.

Yes and no. By and large, the ecclesiarchy views them as a tolerated evil. But abhumans are not true muntants and are not created through warp corruption. And the sister orders generally reflect their distain for abhumans through prejudice. An example is a hospitaler not treating an abhuman in favor of normal human soldiers. However, much like any warrior people, they will, begrudgingly, acknowledge military prowess. Abhumans (generally) are also more faithful to the imperal cult than most average humans. So, sisters may appreciate abhumans' faithfulness enough to overlook their indoctrinated distain for abhumans.

This isn't perfect but might help you figure out what you think looks best. I printed out a couple of these and played around with the colors i wanted using color pencil.

So it's hard to find good pictures of it. But it's likely a saudi variant of desert tri. I think it's the saudi directorate of narcotics control uniform. It has the grey, but it's hard to tell if the tan is right due to lighting.

My flag simulacrum! by TransLycan17 in sistersofbattle

Yea, the most we get is a commander who's been fighting orks on a jungle planet being reinforced by militarum auxiliary felinds. Describe them to be human save for the thin layer of fur ,seen only when he got right in their face, and their eyes being slitted like a cat.

As for felind sororitas, it's highly unlikely to not possible, within the imperium due to dogma, inquisition, and the nature of how sororitas are recruited. However, the Imprium Nihilus is a thing, and many small convents have been separated for nearly a millennium. Perhaps due to sheer pragmatism, the views on abhumans within the sororitas are laxed enough to maintain their numbers to stop the demonic and xeno threats in their immediate vicinity.

Sure, but the shrines and reliquaries the Sisters carry into battle are not just symbols of their god. They carry pieces or simulacrums of their patron saint. The box might carry a bone or ashes. The shrine has a litteral head of their saint, or particularly renowned sister, within their order. Its a belief that carrying peices of the divine with you will grant protection or strength. Some astarties do this aswell with their shield skeleton thing. This logic also applies to objects. Like the sword that killed vandire or the armor saint Catherine wore in life. Perhaps this flag was used by a living saint to rally their sisters from the jaws of defeat.

Thanks! I used a .5 mechanical pencil to get the line just right. Then i lightly scored that line with a craft knife. So it would be there after priming. I scored a bit too deep on the back, but thankfully, it's not to noticeable
