(I let her win one game of one thing, once.

However, I've noticed a lot of people on here with the SoB tag, so I was hoping I could get some advice on making Sisters at least competitive enough that we can play together and she'll win sometimes without me taking deliberately crappy lists. We've been holding out hope that they'll be updated soon, so she could possibly start getting into it, but with Tyranids being next, and rumors of just about everything other than Sisters being after that, I've kind of given up. A lot of the gaming videos she watches have big fans of it (namely TotalBiscuit) and she'd be curious, but the only faction that really captured her interest were Sisters of Battle, and she was severely disheartened when she found out they don't have a proper codex.

I hope I made it clear, ahah ! If you can clarify this but find it hard to picture, feel free to hit me up with an e-mail, IвЂ™ll scheme the situation with a diagram.When my girlfriend and I got together, she selflessly tried so hard to like 40k. In that case, the Infiltrators would be screening for the Librarian even though they are not within 3вЂі of him ? So, the Obliterators would be able to declare the Librarian as a valid target ?Д«ut actually they would not be able to, because the Infiltrators that are 12вЂі away from the Librarian are closer to the Obliterators, hence preventing the fulfilment of the following statement : вЂњ and it is the closest ennemy unit to the firing model.вЂќ. But heвЂ™s visible to the firing unit, and the closest model since the Intercessors that are вЂњprotectingвЂќ him are further away. The Librarian is within 3вЂі of a unit of 3 or more models, the first condition is checked. What if I have a squad of 5 Infiltrators that is 6вЂі from my opponentвЂ™s Obliterators, hidden in a ruin, and a Librarian, 2вЂі in front of 5 Intercessors, 18вЂі from the Obliterators. Being within 3вЂі of a friendly unit and being the closest and visible target to the firing unit ? ButвЂ¦ Does it mean that both conditions need to be applied to target this character ? e.g. вЂ“ That Character unit is visible to the firing unit AND it is the closest to the firing unit. вЂ“ They are within 3вЂі of a / / Friendly unit with 3 models or more. If I get it right, you canвЂ™t target a character with 9W or less if : I do hope you will be able to shed a light on this, but I canвЂ™t get my head around the wording of the new Look out, Sir! rules. I intend to overcome those by keeping a close eye on what I keep near them вЂ“ there should be no shortage in my army of both Vehicles and decently sized Infantry units, and the two of those together should give me all the protection I need to keep my linchpins alive. Adepta Sororitas armies tend to be somewhat dependent on key support Characters, so having them become more vulnerable will present a new challenge. I think the largest challenge players will face in the new edition is the change to the Look Out, Sir rules, which requires more careful positioning of your Characters for them to benefit from the same level of protection. In the new edition, that will become much less of a problem withВ the changes to how Overwatch works. Secondly, many Adepta Sororitas units are quite squishy вЂ“ and the prevalence of Overwatch in the current edition really made certain unit types questionable to go charging into. Multi-charges are getting much riskier and harder to perform for most,* but with the help of their faith and a couple of trusty Miracle dice, the Sisters of Battle are really going to shine. Lastly, as a brief note on the Fight phase, I think there are two main ways the Adepta Sororitas are going to excel. With theВ changes to how vehicles interactВ with the game, I think youвЂ™ll see more viability to these styles of play than we currently do. However, my favorite army compositions for the Sisters of Battle вЂ“ and probably in general вЂ“В is now more of a mechanised/mixed force approach.

While there are currently several viable styles, the strongest Adepta Sororitas armies in matched play tended to be very infantry heavy, with a fairly high model count.

In addition to being a playtester and member of Team USA, heвЂ™s won tournaments more times thanВ Saint CelestineВ has returned from death!ДЄndrew: The Adepta Sororitas were a big hit when they released earlier this year, and one of the biggest improvements weвЂ™ll see in the new edition for them is an increase in the number of available styles of play. Here to give us some pointers on how theyвЂ™ll play in the new edition is Andrew Gonyo.

They may wear power armour and wield boltguns as their primary weapon, but the Sisters of Battle are a very different beast to the Space Marines on the battlefield.
