I dont like this detachment. It has got far too many taxes to be able to use rules. And if you pay the tax, it's 3 units max, so most of your army had no detachment rule. And then, you have to spend CP to get some OKish buffs on units that you already paid a die tax to be able to use the strat on in the first place. And the best enchantment is a worse, more expensive version of Hallowed martyrs enchantment. All in all, what very few things that are good are not worth the reduculous amount of work to get them usable, leading to a very unfun unflavorful and honestly depressing experience. For the first time ever, i ended a game early because i was having absolutely no fun, and I wasn't even losing.
ya its def weak. i think it was written before the rules and points changes. so its lacking, as the army has been toned down based on the stronger detachments, and this is not it. sorry you had a bad experience, even when i'm taking a whipping i like to play it out, and try to do as much as i can, with what i have. but i understand it can def be frustrating, especially when you're looking forward to having some fun! i think this detachment is for the birds, but sisters as a whole are still very fun, and one of my favorite factions. cheers
@WarHammerMan for sure. With a lot of extra dice to spend, it's not bad. Battle Sisters are decent enough, and warsuits need something to encourage more than just one unit. Love for celestians is nice too, though a defensive buff alongside or in place of the OC would have been better imo. Maybe make them battle line in this detachment. And I still think they need two wounds or a 1/5 point cost reduction either way. I feel they picked the right unit. Though as it stands, there are too many restrictions to even use the detxhment rule properly. The detachment has a solid base and has real potential with a few tweeks that i hope come in the next patch. As for now, I'm not having fun with it, but I remain cautiously optimistic. In the meantime, I'm going to play Chaos Knights because their new Snackrofice detachment is a lot of fun.
Hope you have a good new year! Thanks for the videos in 2024 🎉
