I gave myself a treat and asked the great Ana Polanšćak (from Gardens of Hecate) to paint some new Sisters of Battle for me. Sisters of the Order of Our Martyred Lady painted by Ana Polanšćak and me I fully expected that the new minis are bigger than the old metal ones, but being nearly as big as a Primaris Marine? SIGH! I painted the Sister in the colours of the order of “Our Martyred Lady”. But as usual there are some downsides, in this case the serious scale creep!

They are a definite improvement over the original metal minis. In December 2019 I received the army box and was very curious how the new plastic Sisters looked. You can see my old metal 2002 / 2003 Ebon Chalice Sisters further down below. I owned and played the Sisters in all editions from the late 1990s on:ġ997 - Codex: Sisters of Battle (2nd Edition)Ģ003 - Codex: Witch Hunters (3rd Edition)Ģ011 - Codex: Sisters of Battle (5th Edition)Ģ013 - Codex: Adepta Sororitas (6th Edition)Ģ019 - Codex: Adepta Sororitas (8th Edition) As they frequently share the same role as the Ordo Hereticus, Battle Sisters often form a major part of Ordo Hereticus forces. Their duty as part of the Sisterhood is to ensure and enforce the physical and spiritual purity of humanity and the departments of the Adeptus Terra. Progena recruited into the Sisterhood are indoctrinated even further into the Imperial Cult, becoming even more fiercely devoted to the Emperor and the Imperial cause.



While being raised within the Schola they receive a strong Ecclesiarchal upbringing and education, coming to regard the Emperor as their spiritual father. They are orphans of the Imperial servants who have given their lives in the service of the Imperium. “Battle Sisters are the primary troops used by the Sisters of Battle, the Orders Militant of the Adepta Sororitas.īattle Sisters are recruited solely from the female progena of the Schola Progenia facilities spread across the galaxy.
