Editing Warhammer 40,000/6th Edition Tactics/Adepta Sororitas (section)

===Battle Brothers===

'''Imperial Guard:''' Well, they have a lot of dakka and a lot of bodies. Park a couple artillery pieces and Russes alongside your Exorcists and whack them with your Techpriests' wrenches (no, not like that!). They can't fill the close combat hole in your army, but they can fill some of the vehicle/model count holes, especially once you've hit mid-to-high points levels and can't rely on Faith anymore.

'''Space Marines (Red Hunters):''' If your group is OK with Forge World, and if you have the new Inquisitor supplement, then you can take a Space Marines force with the Red Hunter chapter tactic as battle brothers. The problem is that there is a lot of overlap between your two codices- you're both bolter shooting, power armour wearing armies, just that they shoot better, while you have more bodies and therefore more shots. However the actual nature of the Red Hunters chapter tactic makes them ideal for supplementing a sister force, in that they get a number of one turn special rules the longer the game goes on, at turn three or even two you stand to have all of your ally units with Tank Hunter or even Skyfire. Combine this with your priests and you can boost the marines to absurd heights. 

'''legion of the damned:''' when the mini dex dropped it's allied table included the sisters as Battle Brothers. Legion squads give you deep striking melta weapons that ignore cover, and with a +3 invul save (so no plasma cannon TPK's) they will have to devote so much power to killing them that they can draw fire from your sister groups as you advance. Alterneatly, kit them for anti infantry work and watch them make quick work of cover campers. And as a added bonus, they have two attacks base, and can charge after shooting as they can act also use them as assault troops. Course they have to start in reserve, but they can reroll scatter, call that bag mixed. Over all not bad, plus they don't take up a normal ally or a inquisitor detachment. . . man the lines between armys are getting blurred. 

'''Militarum Tempestus:''' Do you remember the Witch Hunters codex?  GW does apparently.  What's better than having your old Plasmatroopers back?  When they replace their Chimeras with [[Valkyrie|VALKYRIES]].  Sure, if you want to go the full nostalgia route, you'll have to replace your [[Chimera Transport|ChimBoxes]] with [[Taurox|TaurBoxes]], but aren't we just glad to see our hot plasma boys playing with those fiery melta girls again?  Orphan army of the Schola Progenium at its finest.  The old Stormies are back with orders, marine kill'n dakka, flyers, and fast [[METAL BOXES|METAL BOXES]].  The Big Toy Soldiers can provide a delicious distraction, via deep strike or fast transports, for your advancing wave of bolter bitches, or park their Sanctioned [[Ork|Trukks]] next to the Exorcists for screening and to pump out EVEN MOAR Str 8 shots a turn.  You can point them at high priority targets while the Sisters mop up, or let those righteous meltas do the talking while Anti-Marine Snipers pin units down before [[Dakka|eBRRRRRRRRRT]] commences.  Throw in an Inquisitorial detachment and you've basically gone back to 3rd edition.  Welcome home.

'''Imperial Knights:'''Coming soon.

'''Inquisition:''' Why haven't you taken it yet? Seriously, you get 3 Elites Choices (Read: 3 units of Inquisitorial Henchmen) and each of them can take a transport like a Rhino, or a Chimera or a Land Raider or a freaking VALKYRIE! That makes it worth it right up front, but with the right load out, they can fill the close combat and flyer holes in your army, so this should be your first choice right here, but do not take them as allies. Inquisitors have this trick of acting a bit like a part of the normal detachment allowing you to still take another ally. You can also fill the need for some long range anti-armor with some Jokero, maybe toss in an Inquisitor with an Conversion Beam or some Servitors with Plasma Cannons. Consider, a inquisitor in a Valkyrie, while still having a full Guard artillery battery while screen with large blocks of bolter nuns, or consider a four lascannon Devastator squad buffed by a psyker Inquisitor while sisters deal with the enemy infantry. The possibles are exponential with combinations of Inquisition, Guard, Red Hunters and Sisters, not counting allies of convenience at all!
