Merciless masters of the lash, the Sisters of Slaughter leap into the fray and do not cease until all their foes lie dead. Sometimes even that is not enough to stop these vicious killers, for to them mutilation and bloodshed are acts of purest devotion to their cruel deity. To them, combat is everything – melee is worship, and each drop of blood spilled is an offering to Khaine. They fight in an exaggerated style, spinning, leaping and posing dramatically as they use their whips and blades to trace ancient runes in enemy flesh. Those who would join the Sisterhood permanently graft leering masks of living metal – the survivors of this, and the ceremonial duels that follow, become gladiatrixes insanely dedicated to fighting in the name of Khaine.
This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble a set of 10 Sisters of Slaughter. They wear lightweight, minimal armour in order to move and flow more freely in their devotional bloodlust – what armour is there is beautifully ornate, finished by high leather boots. Each Sister carries a long barbed whip, featuring metal hooks and blades at the end, and a buckler with a long, extremely sharp blade, and each wears a terrifying metal mask, its face twisted into an expression of bloodthirsty, leering rage. 16 of these masks are supplied, with 2 each of 8 different designs. The leader of the unit is a Handmaiden, who has a special twin-tailed whip, and her mask features a forked tongue. There are 2 banners with 3 different banner tops for standard bearers and a horn to denote the unit’s hornblower.
The Sisters of Slaughter come as 67 components, and are supplied with 10 Citadel 25mm Round bases and a banner transfer sheet. This kit can be optionally used to assemble 10 Witch Aelves.
