Editing Battle Sister Squad (section)

==Deployment==
Battle Sister Squads are the main unit for the SoBs. Thus you must treat them almost the same way as you treat Tactical Marines; a flexible force that can hold their ground in both CQC and heavy fire support. Well, in theory. In practice they're normal humans with Strength 3, Toughness 3, and were originally Initiative 3 too, but still rock [[Sisters of Battle Armour]] with cheap access to special weapons, making them more ranged focused than their Astartes brothers.

Battle Sisters are orphans of the Imperial servants who have given their lives in the service of the Imperium. While being raised within the Schola Progenia they receive a strong Ecclesiarchal upbringing and education, coming to regard the Emperor as their spiritual father (boys get a similar education and become [[Commissar]]s). 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. 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. As they frequently share the same role as the [[Ordo Hereticus]], Battle Sisters often form a major part of [[Ordo Hereticus]] forces as well.

Being a flexible armed force, the Battle Sisters are typically armed with the [[Sororitas Boltgun|Godwyn-De'az Pattern Boltguns,]] though others frequently carry [[Bolt Pistol]]s and close combat weapons such as [[Chainsword]]s. For personal protection, Battle Sisters wear specialized [[Sisters of Battle Armour|Power Armour.]] Battle Sisters who carry heavy weaponry are called [[Retributor Squad|Retributors]]. Battle Sisters should not be confused with those within the [[Dominion Squad]] as although they may look similar, Dominions have a completely different purpose and usage than normal Battle Sisters.
