====Dedicated Transports==== Getting your meltas/flamers into position is priority, so running anything less than full mech infantry is a dangerous gambit, unless of course you run blob squads with Preachers, thereby making them Fearless. On vehicles we get smoke and Shield of Faith standard, so extra armor can be safely ignored. Dozer blades are always welcome point sinks, though by no means mandatory. *'''Rhino''' - It's a Rhino. You've seen it elsewhere and you know what it does. They've gotten 5 points more expensive, it also has Shield of Faith to compensate, which is definitely worth it. *'''Immolator''' - Battle Sisters squads have a basic unit size of 5 models, which means a basic squad can fit inside them. PRAISE THE EMPRAH! Basically this means immo-spam is back; twin-linked multi-meltas add reliable tank-busting, leaving your Sisters to tool up with flamers for the wall of death. Mercifully, they now get a 5-point price drop, searchlights and free multi-meltas now. And the Laud Hailer is a welcome addition, since you'll usually stick Dominion in here. You WANT that AoF to work. The new draft FAQ also gave it a single fire point: that's not much, but it's better than a sharp stick in the eye, and you never know when that one shot will make the difference. Don't forget it if your Immolaor gets charged when there's still a unit inside it. :Don't forget that like the Rhino, Immolaters have Shield of Faith. Given how close they're going to get to their enemies that 6++ could come in handy, and if you're up against Psykers you're definitely going to appreciate Adamantium Will. * '''Repressor (Forge World)''' - Under the latest Imperial Armor, it's a 75 point Rhino with AV 13 front, a free Dozer Blade, a Heavy Flamer and enough room for 8 models to shoot out of. (War Machines of the Adeptus Astartes page 239, "Two models may fire out of the top hatch. '''In addition there are three firing points on either side of the troop compartment, each of which may be fired out of by a single passenger.'''") This is a pretty solid model for units that can fire at full capacity out of it (8 girl Retributor squads, maybe a Dominion squad), if you're willing to put in the points, much less the Pounds. Now has Shield of Faith too. :Oddly enough the Repressor is better suited for your allies rather than your nuns, providing excellent cover for something like a Deathwatch force to hide inside and take shots out of, and they can also make mean battlefield bunkers (because you might be playing the Vestal Task Force, and be unable to take the real fortifications, or you might want more mobile but still affordable bunkers). If you're worried about the Line of Sight issues, you could always ally in an Inquisitor, as depending one what army you're up against it's possible for the Inquisitor to give the embarked unit Split Fire. :Note that most tournaments won't let you use this, though attitudes toward Forge World do seem to be liberalizing somewhat. ::Also note that this vehicle has not been available for sale since August 2015. They need to redo the mould and who knows when this will be done.
