For so long I have been focused on the fact that battlesisters have no long range heavy weapons....and I have overlooked something crucial.
I have been so stupid...so so so stupid!!! SO STUPID!!!
I was muttering about the lack of long range heavy weapons when I came down upon the BS3 redemptionsts...des
peratly seeking to improve my long range firepower against an enemy Dark Eldar. I was thinking. Hey, if they can field heavy bolters I might have something that can at least dent their Raiders at 36". But when I read through it....to my amazement the redemtionists can not just have heavy bolters....BUT AUTOCANNONS!!!!!!
And was the Dark Eldar suprised when I fielded small squads of Redemtionists with autocannons/heavy bolters and Redemptor priests. Screened them with Sister squads...
AND DID THEY KICK ASS!!!!(the DE player was to say the least...suprised)
I finally have a weapon that can dent chimeras, Waveserpents and even Predators at long range!!! WOOOHOOOO!!
And not only that. With the redemptor priest they will never break. They can be pinned at most!!
