Well, the play apparently does have a fake saint, that alone would probably trigger the Sisters of Battle to no end. But the mockery of the Eldar and the usage of live ammunition likely do take things too far, it's supposed to be a play where people are entertained, not watch lives be taken on a fake battlefield for fake glory.

Sorry but the Adepta Sororitas are not fanaticals. We are talking about a universe where thoughts become real thanks to the warp. In this case it is not fanaticism, it is just common sense.
Looks like the authorities of this planet will have to explain to the Inquisition why they thought imitating the Harlequins and wasting ammos, at the cost of several pointless human deaths in add, was a good idea.
To be fair, unless it's a particularly uptight inquisitor, the Inquisition likely wouldn't care... Not when there's more pressing threats to the Imperium.
Also to be further fair it sounds like they mostly use this as way to purge undesirables. Even more of a reason the Inquisition wouldn't give a shit. I'm honestly surprised the Sister of Battle DID, though I suspect that has more to do with mocking the glorious dead and possibly the fake Celestine over the loss of life.
The Inquisition would not give much of a fuck. Planetary authorities are free to do whatever they want and this doesn't really look heretical to me, just pointless. The administratum won't care so long as a tithe is paid, too.

There's a difference between surviving a deathmatch and being a good soldier. Imagine you put one of these survivors into a logistics unit that drags crates from point A to point B 24/7.

You know I thought the sister would be pissed over how the saint was portrayed, the care for the youths let alone the portrayal of the xenos never crossed my mind.
Sisters are messed up but they actually care for youths, the guardsmen, and anything seen as pointless death. Strip someone down, hand them a sword and send them screaming at the enemy? They are being shot at by the enemy and others are not taking those shots...thus not a pointless death. Their cherubs are vat grown, not real babies. An astartes dies? They will hate to lose such a valuable asset but they will shrug it off mostly as an astartes is no longer human. A guardsman takes a round beside them? They will cover the guardsman and try to get them treated if possible and if not will scream in absolute rage while returning fire at where the shot came from. They commit warcrimes, and will outright kill people for doing heretical things...but they care about the lives of normal humans. Guardsman are especially loved by the Sisters as they are regular humans fighting without any augmentations.
@@Nempo13 At the same time, they respect their enemies. They hate, despise, and wholesale unalive them (d... youtube), but they do respect them and allown no mockery. Why? Because it leads to understimating them and lowering your guard which can be seen as a shame and dereliction of your duty. Honestly, this approach is pretty common across the Imperium even including Astartes and Inquisition. Hate the xeno, but respect and acknowledge their abillities.

So, hypothetically speaking, what would happen if Vulkan saw this? Would he weep at the needless human deaths, smile at the idea of killing Aeldari or both simultaneously? Regardless of the answer, there will be no survivors.
It's better to sacrifice the life and the ammunition to fight the real enemies. But at the same time it would serve as inhibitor against rebelion towards the ruling power. Did some social research where some "tribal" people do "war dance" with real life casualties, it would serve to divert their resources and attention to that yearly efforts so they wont "complain" to the ruling power. Also it was a sick attraction for the people, events and festival is like reset button for some people.

That’s true for most planets in the imperium
