Adepta Sororitas faction overview
The Adepta Sororitas (Sisters of Battle) are the militant arm of the Ecclesiarchy — fanatical female warriors armed with bolters, flamers and meltas, supported by Penitent Engines, Exorcists and Living Saints. The current range is fully plastic since the 2019 refresh.
Buying advice for second-hand collectors
The 2019 plastic Sororitas range replaced 20-year-old metals — both are legal but the metals are heavy and now mostly collector items. The Piety and Pain army box halves and Combat Patrol provide the best second-hand value. Watch for missing Seraphim jump packs and Repentia chainsword sprues.
Collecting & army-building advice
Order identity drives the scheme — Bloody Rose red, Valorous Heart black/red, Argent Shroud silver, Ebon Chalice black/gold. Most lists run two Battle Sister Squads in Rhinos, a Seraphim Squad, Repentia, a Penitent Engine, an Exorcist, Celestine and a Canoness.
