New Adepta Sororitas 9th Edition 40k Update and the Necromunda House of Faith pre-orders are on the way!
Warhammer Community just let us in on all the new releases for pre-order this coming Saturday. Let’s go over the line-up starting with the Sisters of Battle.
The big question is will the ridiculous allocations continue?
Codex: Adepta Sororitas
Codex: Adepta Sororitas includes all of the rules and datasheets you need to bring the armoured fist of the Adeptus Ministorum to your battlefields, as well as page after page of in-depth background information, gorgeous photography, and stunning artwork. For the truly faithful, a luxury collector’s edition is also on the way to really show off your devotion to the Emperor.
Most of the recent updates have been extremely strong. That might mean Sisters will join the top tier of lists. However, if they don’t, they’ll still be getting new units and lore which is always awesome for fans of the faction.
Morvenn Vahl, Abbess Sanctorum
Leading the Adepta Sororitas’ newcomers is the mighty Morvenn Vahl, Abbess Sanctorum and a High Lord of Terra.
If we had to guess, she’ll most likely be like a chapter master level model, with some extra stats for that giant mech of hers of course.
Paragon Warsuits
These elite Sisters are clad in the pinnacle of power armour technology, allowing them to stand toe to toe with the biggest, toughest foes the Adepta Sororitas might face.
We’ve known about these for a while now, so it’s great to finally have them coming to player’s tabletops soon!

Celestian Sacresants
Not to be left out, the Celestian Sacresants load up their heavy power weapons and wade into close combat, equipped to soak up the heaviest of enemy attacks with their huge shields. They’re also dab hands at protecting your Characters, which comes in handy when the fighting gets up close and personal.
Love or hate “look out sir” style rules, these are most likely going to have some form of them. Maybe just a targeting restriction if they are close by?
Dogmata
As if the other new units for the Adepta Sororitas aren’t scary enough, the terrifying Dogmata is here to keep a close eye on her fellow Sisters and galvanise them with her rousing hymns.
Other than some freakishly long fingers, this new support character is going to be a welcome part of any list. Squeezing out extra value from your list is always great.
Adepta Sororitas Datacards and Dice
As per usual, you’ll be able to pick up a deck of Datacards to make the first few learning games smoother or get some dice to pronounce your devotion to the Sisters of Battle.
House of Faith
Set the underhive ablaze with House of Faith, the essential companion for the gangs of House Cawdor. Packed full of lore, rules, and more, it’s the definitive tome for would-be saviours of the hive city’s credence (or just fans of masks and fire).
Unfortunately for the other gangs in Necromunda, Cawdor took the idea of purifying flames literally and isn’t letting up.
Redemptionists
Included in the book are rules for the ruthless, uncompromising Redemptionists, fanatics who make even the particularly pious members of House Cawdor keep one eye open in case their faith is found wanting.
Speaking of flames, these wackjobs decided it was a good idea to put burning fires on their helmets. Be a real shame if any embers got on their entirely cloth-based outfits.
Cawdor Gang Tactics Cards and Dice
Just like sisters, you’ll also be able to pick up some cards and dice if you wish for the new Necromunda gang.
Elathain’s Soulraid
Another set we’ve seen a while ago, this latest Warband is lurking around the mountain for some fresh souls. Don’t let the crab trick you, these Aelves will definitely trap and take your soul.
Aeronautica Marauder Planes
You’ll be able to take either the Pathfinder or Colossus Bomber Variants of the new Marauder planes in Aeronautica.
Aeronautica T’au Air Caste Remora Stealth Drones
The T’au are also getting some reinforcements in the form of these Stealth Drones.
Titanicus Volkite Weapon Options
Meanwhile, Princeps of the Titan Legions can get their massive hands on the Imperium’s feared Volkite technology when devastating weapons arrive for the Warhound, Reaver, and Warlord Titans.
Blackstone Fortress Ascension and Brutal Kunnin (Paperback re-release)
Two fan-favourite books are coming to paperback as an eclectic group of scavengers brave the Blackstone Fortress once more in Ascension, while a band of Orks form a reluctant alliance with the notorious Kaptin Badrukk in Brutal Kunnin.
Warriors of Ultramar and Fire Made Flesh (Audio-book re-release)
Dive into two MP3 audiobooks that are available straight away next Saturday. Captain Uriel Ventris battles the voracious Tyranids in Warriors of Ultramar by Graham McNeill, while dark secrets of Necromunda are uncovered after centuries lost in Denny Flowers’ Fire Made Flesh.
