I found my way here via being a SoB fanatic. Are there any plans or rumours about there being a Sisters faction? Or even as an allied sub-faction for the marines? Sadly I'm one of the old guard who despises space marines and how they've taken over 40k, but I'd play the MMO if there were Sisters. Heck, I'd play if there was a Tyranid/Genestealer Cult or Daemons faction if I knew Sisters would appear in a later expansion. Anything but marines!
Behavior plans on adding all of the armies, eventually. As for Space Marines "taking over"..... You can't be that old guard if you don't think space marines have always been the largest group of lore/game/etc.
Just to clarify, the vote will be for a 5th faction for each currently existing race, not a whole extra race. So while we'll be able to vote to see what the 5th chapter is for space marines, we won't be voting on whether to add Dark Eldar, Tau, Necrons or SoB.
I would assume they will have a presence, eventually, in Eternal Crusade. As you know, the Adptus Sororiatus cleanse the heresy from not only the foes of the Imperium... But within the Imperium itself. A huge mass of Space Marine chapters fighting would eventually require inquisition and other facets of the Empire to make sure they remain pure. I honestly don't see this game going on for too long without implementing them. There is a info thread [here] ( It's a week or so out of date, but has a'lot of info you seek about the game ). Keep in mind the creators are keeping us up to date with everything they do, and welcome to EC forums.
The Developers have said that the Sisters are one of the most requested races, alongside the Necrons and blueskins Tau. But they won't be added before the release of the game. Don't worry though, I'm just as big a Sisters fan as you are. So we can be united in our desire to play them I do play them all the time on DoW Soulstorm though
2.1.7 Q: Inquisition Have you considered Inquisition with Grey Knights as a separate faction? A (07.08.2013 David): We are thinking about it 2.1.8 Q: Sisters of Battle Why you don’t want Sisters of Battle for launch? A (August.2013 Patrick): it's not about we want to - we need to focus on what we need to have in the game to make it fun at launch; adding SoB later is still something we want to do! SoB fan my self and they are coming later on alongside the rest of them eventually.
