Laud Hailer (Aura): While a friendly ADEPTA SORORITAS CORE or ADEPTA SORORITAS CHARACTER unit is within 6" of this model, add 1 to the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit.
Non-militant Order: If your army is Battle-forged, then for each Detachment that includes either a CANONESS or CANONESS SUPERIOR unit, one DIALOGUS unit can be included in that Detachment without taking up a Battlefield Role slot.
Stirring Rhetoric (Aura): While a friendly ADEPTA SORORITAS unit is within 6" of this model, each time that unit (or a model in that unit) performs an Act of Faith, you can increase or decrease the value of 1 Miracle dice (or 1 Cherub dice) by 1 before you use it to perform that Act of Faith (to a maximum of 6 and a minimum of 1). This is not cumulative with any other abilities that can increase or decrease the value of a Miracle dice or a Cherub dice.
PRIEST
PRIEST
 This model knows War Hymn and one other hymn from the Hymns of Battle. In your Command phase, if this model is on the battlefield, it can intone one hymn it knows that has not already been intoned by a friendly model this turn. Roll one D6: on a 3+, the intoned hymn is inspiring and takes effect until the start of your next Command phase.

Datasheet-related Stratagems

SUFFER NOT THE WITCH1CP
Adepta Sororitas – Battle Tactic Stratagem

Those who would wield sorcery against the righteous often find themselves facing the full fury of the Ecclesiarchy.

Use this Stratagem in your Shooting phase, when an ADEPTUS MINISTORUM unit from your army is selected to shoot, or in the Fight phase, when an ADEPTUS MINISTORUM unit from your army is selected to fight. Until the end of the phase, each time a model in that unit makes an attack against a PSYKER unit, add 1 to that attack’s hit roll (if the attack is made by an ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CHARACTER model, add 1 to that attack’s hit roll and add 1 to that attack’s wound roll).
DIVINE INTERVENTION2CP
Adepta Sororitas – Epic Deed Stratagem

Sometimes, a brush with death is so close that the only explanation seems to be divine intervention.

Use this Stratagem when an ADEPTA SORORITAS CHARACTER model (excluding named characters) from your army is destroyed, instead of using any rules that are triggered when a model is destroyed (e.g. Sacrifice or the Chaplet of Sacrifice Relic). Discard 1-3 Miracle dice. At the end of the phase, set that model back up on the battlefield as close as possible to where it was destroyed and not within Engagement Range of any enemy models. The model is returned to play with a number of wounds remaining equal to the number of Miracle dice you discarded. You cannot use this Stratagem if you do not have any Miracle dice remaining. This Stratagem can only be used once per battle.
FIERY ORATORY1CP
Adepta Sororitas – Epic Deed Stratagem

The priests of the Adeptus Ministorum can use the power of their oratory to inspire their flocks.

Use this Stratagem at the start of any of your phases other than your Command phase. Select one ADEPTUS MINISTORUM PRIEST model from your army that has not intoned a hymn this turn. That model can intone one hymn that it knows that has not already been intoned by a friendly model this turn. That hymn is automatically inspiring (do not roll) and takes effect until the start of your next Command phase.
SUFFERING AND SACRIFICE1CP
Adepta Sororitas – Epic Deed Stratagem

Suffering is a staple prayer for the Adepta Sororitas, and a martyr’s fate only brings greater glory to the God-Emperor.

Use this Stratagem in the Fight phase. Select one ADEPTA SORORITAS WARLORD, SAINT POTENTIA or LIVING SAINT unit from your army (excluding VEHICLE units): until the end of the phase, that unit is known as your Suffering unit. Until the end of the phase, each time an enemy unit is selected to fight, if a model in that enemy unit is within Engagement Range of your Suffering unit when your opponent is selecting targets for its attacks, those attacks can only target your Suffering unit.
OPEN THE RELIQUARIES1CP
Adepta Sororitas – Requisition Stratagem

In the direst circumstances, even the most sacred of the Ministorum’s holy artefacts are brought forth to aid the faithful.

Use this Stratagem before the battle, when you are mustering your army, if your WARLORD has the ADEPTUS MINISTORUM keyword. Select one ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CHARACTER model from your army and give them one Relic of the Ecclesiarchy (this must be a Relic they could have). Each Relic in your army must be unique, and you cannot use this Stratagem to give a model two Relics. You can only use this Stratagem once, unless you are playing a Strike Force battle (in which case, you can use this Stratagem twice) or an Onslaught battle (in which case, you can use this Stratagem three times).
SAINT IN THE MAKING1CP
Adepta Sororitas – Requisition Stratagem

This warrior stands pre-eminent in the Adeptus Ministorum as a shining example of everything a devout servant of the Emperor aspires to.

Use this Stratagem before the battle, when you are mustering your army, if your WARLORD has the ADEPTUS MINISTORUM keyword. Select one ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CHARACTER model from your army (excluding named characters) and determine one Warlord Trait for it (this must be a Warlord Trait it can have); that model is only regarded as your WARLORD for the purposes of that Warlord Trait. Each Warlord Trait in your army must be unique (if randomly generated, re-roll duplicate results), and you cannot use this Stratagem to give a model two Warlord Traits. You can only use this Stratagem once, unless you are playing a Strike Force battle (in which case, you can use this Stratagem twice) or an Onslaught battle (in which case, you can use this Stratagem three times).
HOLY RAGE1CP/2CP
Adepta Sororitas – Strategic Ploy Stratagem

With psalms on their lips, the faithful hurl themselves forward.

Use this Stratagem at the start of your Charge phase. Select one ADEPTA SORORITAS CORE unit from your army. Until the start of your next Command phase, that unit gains either the Zealot ability or the Fanatic ability, as shown below:
  • Zealot: Each time a model in this unit makes a melee attack, if this unit made a charge move, was charged or performed a Heroic Intervention this turn, you can re-roll that attack’s hit roll.
  • Fanatic: This unit is eligible to declare a charge in a turn in which it Fell Back.
If that unit is within 6" of an ADEPTUS MINISTORUM PRIEST model when this Stratagem is used, this Stratagem costs 1CP; otherwise, it costs 2CP.

Hymns of Battle

War Hymn

Suffer not the enemies of Mankind to live. Smite them down with all your strength and fury.

If this hymn is inspiring, select one friendly ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CORE, ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CHARACTER or ENGINE OF REDEMPTION unit within 6" of this PRIEST model. Until the start of your next Command phase, add 1 to the attacks characteristic of models in that unit.

Hymns of Battle

D6HYMN
1

REFRAIN OF BLAZING PIETY

The fervent intonations that the God-Emperor will smite down his foes are believed so powerfully that these sacred words can cause heretics to combust.

If this hymn is inspiring, select one enemy unit that is within 12" of and visible to this PRIEST model. That unit suffers D3 mortal wounds (if that unit has the CHAOS keyword, it instead suffers 3 mortal wounds).

2

CHORUS OF SPIRITUAL FORTITUDE

The Emperor protects the faithful from the corruption that lurks in the darkness.

If this hymn is inspiring, select one friendly ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CORE, ADEPTUS MINISTORUM CHARACTER or ENGINE OF REDEMPTION unit within 6" of this PRIEST model.

  • If that unit or its models are being affected by any psychic powers manifested by enemy models, the effects of those psychic powers on that unit and its models end.
  • Until the start of your next Command phase, that unit and the models it contains are not affected by any psychic power manifested by enemy units.

3

PSALM OF RIGHTEOUS SMITING

Invoking the strength of the God-Emperor, divine power flows through the priest as they carve apart their enemies like the warrior-saints of legend.

If this hymn is inspiring:

  • Add 1 to this PRIEST model’s Strength and Attacks characteristics.
  • Improve the Armour Penetration characteristic of melee weapons this PRIEST model is equipped with by 1 (excluding Relics).
  • At the end of the Fight phase, if this PRIEST model is in Engagement Range of any enemy units, it can fight one additional time.

4

LITANY OF ENDURING FAITH

Faith is the shield of the righteous, and the passionate chants of the devout can reinforce the benediction of the God-Emperor.

If this hymn is inspiring, select one friendly ADEPTA SORORITAS CORE or ADEPTA SORORITAS CHARACTER unit within 6" of this PRIEST model. The invulnerable save models in that unit receive from the Shield of Faith ability is improved by 1 (to a maximum of 4+).

5

VERSE OF HOLY PIETY

Pray is stronger than any sword. As the sanctified words of the Order’s holy tenets are roared across the battlefield, the devout are infused with the Emperor’s blessings.

If this hymn is inspiring, select one friendly ADEPTA SORORITAS CORE or ADEPTA SORORITAS CHARACTER unit within 6" of this PRIEST model. Select one sacred rite that is not active for your army. That sacred rite is active for that unit in addition to any others that are active for your army.

6

CATECHISM OF REPUGNANCE

With the holy bolter we shall cleanse the mutant, the alien and the heretic. With the Emperor’s gift do we deliver our hatred of the defiler.

If this hymn is inspiring, select one friendly ADEPTA SORORITAS CORE or ADEPTA SORORITAS CHARACTER unit within 6" of this PRIEST model. Each time a model in that unit makes a ranged attack with a bolt weapon:

  • An unmodified hit roll of 6 automatically wounds the target.
  • If that attack targets a unit within half range, the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack is improved by 1.

This datasheet has Elites Battlefield Role. Full list of Adepta Sororitas units sharing same Battlefield Role follows:

PISTOL
Due to their compact size, pistols can even be used in melee to shoot at point-blank range.
A model can make attacks with a Pistol even when its unit is within Engagement Range of enemy units, but it must target an enemy unit that is within Engagement Range of its own unit when it does so. In such circumstances, the model can target an enemy unit even if other friendly units are within Engagement Range of the same enemy unit.

When a model equipped with both a Pistol and another type of ranged weapon (e.g. a Pistol and a Rapid Fire weapon) shoots, it can either shoot with its Pistol(s) or with its other ranged weapons. Choose which it will fire (Pistols or non-Pistols) before selecting targets.

  • Can be shot even if firing model’s unit is within Engagement Range of enemy unit.
  • Cannot be shot alongside any other type of weapon.
Select Weapon
When a model makes a close combat attack, it must do so using a melee weapon (i.e. a weapon that has the ‘Melee’ type). The weapons a model is equipped with are described on its datasheet. If a model is not equipped with any melee weapons, or if it cannot make an attack with any of the melee weapons it is equipped with, then that model makes its attacks using a close combat weapon, which has the following profile:

WEAPONRANGETYPESAPD
Close combat weaponMeleeMeleeUser01

If a model has more than one melee weapon, select which it will use before resolving any attacks. If a model has more than one melee weapon and can make several attacks, it can split them between these weapons however you wish – declare which attacks are being made with which weapons before any attacks are resolved. If the selected weapon has more than one profile that you must choose between, you must declare which profile is being used at the same time. Different attacks made with such a weapon can be made using different profiles if you wish.

If your unit is making attacks with more than one melee weapon against a unit, and those weapons have different characteristics profiles, then after you have resolved an attack with one of those weapons you must, if any other weapons with the same characteristics profile are also being used to make attacks against that unit, resolve those attacks before resolving any attacks against the target with a weapon that has a different characteristics profile. Note that all the attacks you have declared are always resolved against the target unit even if, when you come to resolve an individual attack, no models in the target unit remain in range (this can happen because of models being destroyed and removed from the battlefield as the result of resolving other attacks made by the attacking model’s unit first).

  • Each close combat attack is made with a melee weapon.
  • A model makes attacks using the close combat weapon profile if it has no other melee weapons.
  • If a unit attacks with multiple weapons, all attacks made with weapons that have the same profile must be resolved before resolving attacks with the next.
Saving Throw
The player commanding the target unit then makes one saving throw by rolling one D6 and modifying the roll by the Armour Penetration (AP) characteristic of the weapon that the attack was made with. For example, if the weapon has an AP of -1, then 1 is subtracted from the saving throw roll. If the result is equal to, or greater than, the Save (Sv) characteristic of the model the attack was allocated to, then the saving throw is successful and the attack sequence ends. If the result is less than the model’s Save characteristic, then the saving throw fails and the model suffers damage. An unmodified roll of 1 always fails.
Invulnerable Saves
Some models have an invulnerable save. Each time an attack is allocated to a model with an invulnerable save, you can choose to use either its normal Save (Sv) characteristic or its invulnerable save, but not both. If a model has more than one invulnerable save, it can only use one of them – choose which it will use. If you use a model’s invulnerable save, it is never modified by a weapon’s Armour Penetration value.

  • Invulnerable save: Saving throw that is never modified by attacking weapon’s AP.
  • A model with an invulnerable save can use it instead of its normal Sv.

The PRIEST keyword is used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

Hit Roll
When a model makes an attack, make one hit roll for that attack by rolling one D6. If the result of the hit roll is equal to or greater than the attacking model’s Ballistic Skill (BS) characteristic (if the attack is being made with a ranged weapon) or its Weapon Skill (WS) characteristic (if the attack is being made with a melee weapon), then that attack scores one hit against the target unit. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends.

If an attack is made with a weapon that has an ability that says it ‘automatically hits the target’, no hit roll is made – that attack simply scores one hit on the target unit. An unmodified hit roll of 6 always scores a hit, and an unmodified hit roll of 1 always fails. A hit roll can never be modified by more than -1 or +1. This means that if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a hit roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be -2 or worse, it is changed to be -1. Similarly, if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a hit roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be +2 or better, it is changed to be +1.

The ADEPTUS MINISTORUM and CHARACTER keywords are used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

Wound Roll
Each time an attack scores a hit against a target unit, make a wound roll for that attack by rolling one D6 to see if that attack successfully wounds the target. The result required is determined by comparing the attacking weapon’s Strength (S) characteristic with the target’s Toughness (T) characteristic, as shown on the following table:

WOUND ROLL
ATTACK’S STRENGTH vs TARGET’S TOUGHNESSD6 ROLL REQUIRED
Is the Strength TWICE (or more) than the Toughness?2+
Is the Strength GREATER than the Toughness?3+
Is the Strength EQUAL to the Toughness?4+
Is the Strength LOWER than the Toughness?5+
Is the Strength HALF (or less) than the Toughness?6+

If the result of the wound roll is less than the required number, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. An unmodified wound roll of 6 always successfully wounds the target, and an unmodified wound roll of 1 always fails. A wound roll can never be modified by more than -1 or +1. This means that if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a wound roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be -2 or worse, it is changed to be -1. Similarly, if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a wound roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be +2 or better, it is changed to be +1.

The ADEPTUS MINISTORUM and PRIEST keywords are used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

The Warlord
While mustering your army, you can nominate one model (except a model with the FORTIFICATION keyword) to be your Warlord. That model gains the WARLORD keyword. If this model is a CHARACTER, you can also assign a Warlord Trait to it. Note, that more than one model in your army can have a Warlord Trait (e.g. by using Stratagems), but they are only considered your Warlord for the purpose of that trait.

The ADEPTA SORORITAS and CORE keywords are used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

Heavy Support
Engagement Range
Engagement Range represents the zone of threat that models present to their enemies. While a model is within 1" horizontally and 5" vertically of an enemy model, those models are within Engagement Range of each other. While two enemy models are within Engagement Range of each other, those models’ units are also within Engagement Range of each other. Models cannot be set up within Engagement Range of enemy models.

  • Engagement Range: 1" horizontally + 5" vertically.
  • Models cannot be set up within Engagement Range of enemy models.
Charging with a Unit
Once you have chosen an eligible unit to declare a charge with, you must select one or more enemy units within 12" of it as the targets of its charge. The target(s) of this charge do not need to be visible to the charging unit. You then make a charge roll for your unit by rolling 2D6. This is the maximum number of inches each model in the charging unit can now be moved if they can make the charge move. To make a charge move, the unit’s charge roll must be sufficient that it is able to end that move in unit coherency and within Engagement Range of every unit that was a target of its charge, without moving within Engagement Range of any enemy units that were not a target of its charge. If this is possible, then the charge is successful and the models in the unit make a charge move so as to fulfil the above conditions. If this is impossible, the charge fails and no models in the charging unit move this phase.

  • Declare targets of the charge (must be within 12").
  • Charge roll = 2D6".
  • If insufficient to move charging unit into Engagement Range of all targets, charge fails.
  • If charge successful, models make their charge move.
  • Cannot make a charge move within Engagement Range of any unit that was not the target of the charge.
Performing a Heroic Intervention
When a unit performs a Heroic Intervention, you can move each model in that unit up to 3" – this is a Heroic Intervention move. Each model in the unit must finish its Heroic Intervention move closer to the closest enemy model. Remember that a unit must finish any type of move in unit coherency.

  • Heroic Intervention: Move up to 3".
  • Must end closer to the closest enemy model.
Fall Back
When a unit Falls Back, each model in that unit can move a distance in inches equal to or less than the Move (M) characteristic shown on its datasheet, and when doing so you can move it within Engagement Range of enemy models, but it cannot end its move within Engagement Range of any enemy models – if it cannot do this then it cannot Fall Back. A unit cannot declare a charge in the same turn that it Fell Back. A unit cannot shoot or attempt to manifest a psychic power in the same turn that it Fell Back unless it is TITANIC.

  • Fall Back: Models move up to M".
  • Units that Fall Back cannot charge this turn.
  • Units that Fall Back cannot shoot or manifest psychic powers this turn unless they are TITANIC.

The ADEPTUS MINISTORUM and CORE keywords are used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

Heavy Support

The ENGINE OF REDEMPTION keyword is used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

Mortal Wounds
Some attacks inflict mortal wounds – these are so powerful that no armour or force field can withstand their fury. Each mortal wound inflicts 1 point of damage on the target unit, and they are always applied one at a time. Do not make a wound roll or saving throw (including invulnerable saves) against a mortal wound – just allocate it as you would any other attack and inflict damage to a model in the target unit. Unlike damage inflicted by normal attacks, excess damage from mortal wounds is not lost. Instead, keep allocating damage to another model in the target unit until either all the damage has been allocated or the target unit is destroyed.

If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, resolve the normal damage first. If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, but the normal damage is subsequently saved, the target unit still suffers the mortal wounds, as described before. If an ability modifies the damage inflicted by a weapon, and that weapon can inflict mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, the modifier does not apply to any mortal wounds that are inflicted (unless the rule specifically states otherwise).

  • Each mortal wound inflicted on a unit causes one model in the unit to lose one wound.
  • No saving throws can be made against mortal wounds.
  • Mortal wounds inflicted by attacks in addition to normal damage always apply, even if normal damage saved.
Manifesting Psychic Powers
When you select a PSYKER unit to manifest psychic powers, you select one psychic power that unit knows and attempt to manifest it. With the exception of Smite, you cannot attempt to manifest the same psychic power more than once in the same battle round, even with different PSYKER units. The same PSYKER unit cannot attempt to manifest Smite more than once during the same battle round.

To manifest the psychic power, you must first pass a Psychic test. The opposing player can then select one of their PSYKER units that is within 24" of the PSYKER unit attempting to manifest the power and attempt to deny that power before its effects are resolved by passing a Deny the Witch test.

So long as the Psychic test was successful and the psychic power was not denied by a successful Deny the Witch test, the psychic power is successfully manifested and its effects, which will be described in the power itself, are then resolved. If the PSYKER unit can attempt to manifest more than one psychic power in its Psychic phase, you can then attempt to manifest those, one at a time, as described above. The number of psychic powers each PSYKER unit can attempt to manifest in its Psychic phase is listed on its datasheet.

  • Select psychic power.
  • You cannot select the same psychic power more than once per battle round, unless that power is Smite.
  • Attempt to manifest the psychic power by taking a Psychic test.
  • The opponent can attempt to deny the psychic power by taking a Deny the Witch test.
  • If successfully manifested, resolve the psychic power’s effects.
  • Select another psychic power.

The ADEPTA SORORITAS and CHARACTER keywords are used in the following Adepta Sororitas datasheets:

Shield of Faith

Conviction is the greatest armour.

  • Models in this unit have a 6+ invulnerable save.
  • In your opponent’s Psychic phase, this unit can attempt to deny one psychic power as if it were a PSYKER. Each time a Deny the Witch test is taken for this unit, roll one D6 instead of 2D6: if the result of that test was an unmodified result of 6, or if it was greater than the result of the Psychic test, that Deny the Witch test is passed.
Advance
When a unit makes an Advance, make an Advance roll for the unit by rolling one D6. Add the result in inches to the Move (M) characteristic of each model in that unit until the end of the current phase. Each model in that unit can then move a distance in inches equal to or less than this total, but no model can be moved within Engagement Range of enemy models. A unit cannot shoot or declare a charge in the same turn that it made an Advance.

  • Advance: Models move up to M+D6".
  • Cannot move within Engagement Range of enemy models.
  • Units that Advance cannot shoot or charge this turn.
Deny the Witch
When a PSYKER unit attempts to deny a psychic power, you must take a Deny the Witch test for that unit by rolling 2D6. If the total is greater than the result of the Psychic test, the Deny the Witch test is passed and the psychic power is denied. Only one attempt can be made to deny a psychic power. If a PSYKER unit can attempt to deny more than one psychic power in a psychic phase, this will be listed on its datasheet.

  • Deny the Witch: Passed if 2D6 exceeds result of the opposing PSYKER’s Psychic test.
  • Only one attempt can be made to deny each psychic power.
Psychic Tests
When a PSYKER unit attempts to manifest a psychic power, you must take a Psychic test for that unit by rolling 2D6. If the total is equal to or greater than that power’s warp charge value, the Psychic test is passed. If you roll a double 1 or a double 6 when taking a Psychic test, that unit immediately suffers Perils of the Warp.

  • Psychic test: Passed if 2D6 equals or exceeds psychic power’s warp charge.
  • If double 1 or double 6 rolled, PSYKER suffers Perils of the Warp.
Combat Attrition Tests
If a unit fails a Morale test, then after the first model has fled the unit, you must take Combat Attrition tests. To do so, roll one D6 for each remaining model in that unit, subtracting 1 from the result if the unit is below Half-strength; for each result of 1, one additional model flees that unit. You decide which models from your unit flee – those models are removed from play and count as having been destroyed, but they never trigger any rules that are used when a model is destroyed.

  • Combat Attrition tests: Roll one D6 for each remaining model in unit; for each 1, one additional model flees.
  • Subtract 1 from Combat Attrition tests if unit is below Half-strength.
Sacred Rites

The Adepta Sororitas pray for the Emperor to guide them and fill them with strength.

This unit gains a bonus depending on which sacred rites are active for your army. After players have determined their mission, you must select one sacred rite from the following table to be active for your army. Alternatively, you can randomly determine two sacred rites from the table to be active for your army by rolling two D6 and looking up the results (if a double is rolled, roll both dice again until two different results are rolled). In either case, these sacred rites are active for your army until the end of the battle. Some rules can make additional sacred rites become active for a unit during the battle. Duplicated active sacred rites on that unit have no additional effect.
D6SACRED RITE
1

Hand of the Emperor

The Sororitas are imbued with boundless font of vigour.

While this sacred rite is active, add 1 to Advance rolls and charge rolls made for this unit.

2

Spirit of the Martyr

Even with their dying act the Sororitas mete out the Emperor’s judgement.

While this sacred rite is active, each time a model in this unit is destroyed by a melee attack and does not explode, roll one D6: on a 6, after the attacking model’s unit has finished making its attacks, it suffers 1 mortal wound (a unit can suffer a maximum of 6 mortal wounds per phase as the result of this ability).

3

Aegis of the Emperor

The Sororitas do not suffer the vile trickery of witches.

While this sacred rite is active, each time this unit uses its Shield of Faith ability to take a Deny the Witch test, if the result of that test was an unmodified result of 5+, or if it was greater than the result of the Psychic test, that Deny the Witch test is passed.

4

Divine Guidance

Seeing the weak points in their enemies’ armour, the Sisters of Battle strike out to shatter it with contemptuous ease.

While this sacred rite is active, each time a model in this unit makes a ranged attack, on an unmodified wound roll of 6, the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack is improved by 1.

5

The Passion

The Sororitas are filled with a burning passion to inflict suffering upon the faithless.

While this sacred rite is active, each time a model in this unit makes a melee attack, an unmodified hit roll of 6 scores 1 additional hit.

6

Light of the Emperor

The Emperor’s radiance shines upon his warriors, emboldening them amidst the thick of battle.

While this sacred rite is active, you can ignore any or all modifiers to this unit’s Leadership characteristic, and each time a Combat Attrition test is taken for this unit, you can ignore any or all modifiers.

Sacrifice
Any ADEPTA SORORITAS CHARACTER units from your army are destroyed.

Note that Miracle dice can also be gained via other rules. No matter the source, you can only gain Miracle dice from such a rule if every unit from your army has the ADEPTA SORORITAS keyword (excluding models with the CULT IMPERIALIS, AGENT OF THE IMPERIUM or UNALIGNED keywords).

Each time you gain a Miracle dice, roll one D6. The number you roll is the value of that Miracle dice. This value cannot be changed or re-rolled, unless a rule specifically states otherwise. Keep your Miracle dice to one side - this is your Miracle dice pool.

Designer’s Note: We recommend using differently coloured or marked dice for your Miracle dice pool, and placing them to one side of the battle.field, or some place else where you will not accidentally pick them up midgame. It is perfectly fine, if you wish, to write down the values of the Miracle dice in your pool, or to keep track of them in any other way, just so long as both players can see them.

Performing an Act of Faith
Before making a dice roll for a model or a unit from your army with the Acts of Faith ability, if you have one or more dice in your Miracle dice pool, that unit can perform an Act of Faith. To do so, select one or more of the dice from your Miracle dice pool, instead of making any or all of those dice rolls. For each individual dice that is being rolled as part of the dice roll, you can select 1 Miracle dice from your Miracle dice pool to be substituted in place of that dice. The dice that it is being substituted for is not rolled, and instead the value of the selected Miracle dice is used as if it had been rolled. Each Miracle dice can only be selected for substitution once. Once all Miracle dice substitutions have been made, remove the chosen Miracle dice from your Miracle dice pool, and roll any remaining, unsubstituted dice that are a part of the dice roll. You can use Miracle dice when a unit performs an Act of Faith for any of the following types of dice roll:
A Miracle dice is not a modifier or an inherently modified dice (so, for example, if you use a Miracle dice with a value of 1 for a Morale test, that is considered to be an unmodified roll of 1). A Miracle dice that has been used for a substitution can never be re-rolled. This means that if any re-rolls occur, the number and values of any Miracle dice that have already been substituted in the dice roll remain the same for the re-roll (for example, if a single Miracle dice was used to substitute one of the values of a charge roll, and the charge roll was re-rolled, only the unsubstituted dice can be re-rolled).

Example 1: Instead of rolling one D6 to see what value is added to a unit’s Move characteristic when that unit Advances, you could use a dice from your Miracle dice pool. If the value of that dice was 5, you would add 5" to the Move characteristic of every model in that unit for that Movement phase.

Example 2: Instead of rolling 2D6 to see what a unit’s charge distance is when making a charge roll, you could use either one or two dice from your Miracle dice pool. If you chose 2 Miracle dice, and the values of those dice were a 6 and a 3, the unit’s charge distance would be 9".
