Games Workshop Warhammer 40k - Codex V.9 Adepta Sororitas (En) [Personal Computers]

Product Information

They can also Heroic like a character, and whenever they get charged or heroic they can always Set to Defend for +1 to hit in the ensuing fight.

Devastating Refrain now makes your Exorcist able to shoot without line of sight, instead of re-rolling the shots number. The Pulpit of Saint Holline’s Basilica substantially different, now Infantry within 6″ count as being in light cover. Note that that last one has a subtle impact – unless and until they get errata, bringing ADEPTUS MINISTORUM units from other sources that don’t have the CULT IMPERIALIS keyword breaks your detachment rules (and also breaks Acts of Faith, now a pure army bonus). A decent stratagem, especially if you have units with high shot volume – massed bolters under Defenders of the Faith (see below) seem like a good pick here.The other thing might be to use this against the upcoming T5 Ork Boyz, but bear in mind that if you try and do that confusing things around slow rolling start happening, as the enemy can prioritise pulling models from the (small) radius. Slay the Heretic may be a little difficult to pull off if you’re required to line up killing exactly the right units with the right kind of weapons, while Defend the Shrine has a reasonable scoring window of 18 available points, but allows your opponent to dictate your plan, and gives them a very unusual ability to claw points back off you. Executioner of Heretics has been rewritten in line with the new Morale mechanics but remains very similar.

On some maps there’s still value there, as if you’ve built a steamroller of a list that wants to surge towards one objective then hold it tight, this lets you focus on that to the exclusion of most other things and still pick up a 15 as long as you’re in position by the end of your second turn.

The Missionary gets more of a change, because as a Priest his old Aura is gone and replaced with Hymns of Battle, of which he knows one alongside the default War Hymn. Blessings of the Faithful are a new set of rules that allow you to upgrade the Canoness and Palatine units in your army in a similar way that Space Marine players are able to upgrade their Librarians and Apothecaries. Strength and Toughness of 5 with 4 wounds, 3 attacks and a 2+/4++ save they already look a little bit like Custodians to be fair. Potentially hilarious for blasting psykers off the table, but probably not a worthwhile use of your relic slot in an all-comers list.
