Every Rule, Every Saint, Every Battle Hymn
The Adepta Sororitas are among the most iconic armies in Warhammer 40,000 — armoured warrior-nuns of the far future, armed with bolters and flamers, driven by a faith so absolute it manifests as literal miracles on the battlefield. This codex is the complete faction rulebook for the Sisters of Battle in the 10th Edition of Warhammer 40,000, bringing together everything needed to field a full Adepta Sororitas army under the current rules.
What's Inside
The Codex Adepta Sororitas covers every aspect of building and playing a Sisters of Battle army in 10th Edition. Inside you'll find full datasheets for the faction's units — from the iconic Battle Sisters and Celestians to Dominions, Retributors, Arco-Flagellants, and the imposing Canoness. Army rules cover the Acts of Faith system, the mechanic that defines how the Sororitas play: earning and spending Miracle Dice to achieve moments of divine intervention at critical points in a battle. Detachment rules and stratagems let you tailor your force to your preferred playstyle, from aggressive flame-driven assaults to resilient defensive lines anchored by faith. Beyond the rules, the book is rich with lore — the history and structure of the Adepta Sororitas, their Orders Militant, and their place within the broader Imperium of Man. Painting guides and miniature showcase galleries round out the volume, offering inspiration for anyone working through their collection.
Who Needs This Book
Any Adepta Sororitas player building or expanding a 10th Edition army will need this codex. It is the authoritative rules reference for the faction — replacing any Index cards previously used and providing the full suite of army-building options unavailable in introductory materials. Lore enthusiasts will find substantial background content worth reading independent of the game rules. For collectors and painters, the showcase galleries alone make it a worthwhile addition to the hobby shelf. New players drawn to the Sisters of Battle aesthetic should pair this with the Warhammer 40,000 Core Rulebook, which provides the universal game rules this codex builds upon.
